Here, we describe a simple and efficient method for the synthesis of novel thioether-linked coumarin-fused furans. By employing a one-pot three-component reaction using arylglyoxal, 4-hydroxycoumarin, and various aromatic thiols as starting materials and Sc(OTf)(3) as catalyst, we successfully obtained the desired products. This methodology is also applicable to cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyls and allows for the formation of either a three-component thioether-linked coumarin-fused furan or a two-component furocoumarin product, depending on the choice of thiols. The wide substrate scope, high yields, and presence of important pharmaceutically relevant motifs make this methodology highly valuable.
Herein, we report a simple and efficient method for the preparation of novel thioether-linked coumarin-fused furans from the one-pot three-component reaction of arylglyoxal, 4-hydroxycoumarin, and various aromatic thiols in the presence of Sc(OTf)(3) as a catalyst. This methodology is also applicable to cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyls such as cyclohexane-1,3-dione and dimedone. Depending upon the thiols, this methodology can either give a three-component thioether-linked coumarin-fused furan (4) or a twocomponent furocoumarin product (5). Wide substrate scope, good to excellent yields, and products having more than one pharmaceutically important motif are the salient features of this methodology.
