Copper(II)-Catalyzed Tandem Reaction: Synthesis of Furo[3,2- c]coumarin Derivatives and Evaluation for Photophysical Properties

J Org Chem. 2021 Sep 17;86(18):12537-12548. doi: 10.1021/acs.joc.1c00835. Epub 2021 Sep 2.

Abstract

An efficient protocol for synthesizing furo[3,2-c]coumarin derivatives is described. The novel reaction could afford the desired furocoumarins with good to excellent yields in a mild and rapid manner. Large substrate scope screening and scale-up preparation have also been accomplished, and selected compounds were evaluated for their photophysical properties.
