New HA 14-1 analogues: synthesis of 2-amino-4-cyano-4H-chromenes

The synthesis of 2-amino-4-cyano-4H-chromene derivatives as new HA 14-1 analogues by a simple and efficient method is reported. In addition, the reaction of 2-amino-2H-chromene-3-carbonitriles, salicylaldehydes and amines results in the formation of new chromeno[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
