been developed. A wide variety of both cyclic and acyclic N-
alkyl anilines reacted with different cyclic 1,3-dicarbonnyl
compounds under operationally simple conditions to provide a
series of structurally diverse julolidines, lilolidines, and ring-
fused 1,4-dihydroquinoles in very good to excellent yields. The
reaction with cyclic 1,3-diketone provides tetracyclic julolidine
and lilolidine derivatives, whereas the tricyclic derivatives were
formed with excellent anti-selectivity from the reaction of
hydroxycoumarin via an opening of the coumarin ring. The
mechanistic studies suggested that the reaction proceeds via
6π-electrocyclization, which drives the annulation reaction to
occur with reversed regioselectivity as compared with Povarov
annulation.
