This paper describes a concise, easy-operation, high-yielding method for the synthesis of 3-sulfonyl-2-aryl-2 H -chromenes by a one-pot, straightforward two-step synthetic route, which includes (i) Cu(OAc) 2 /PyBOP-mediated intermolecular [4+2] annulation of substituted salicylic acids with β-sulfonylstyrenes in the presence of DMAP in refluxing DMF, and (ii) sequential O -alkylation of the resulting sulfonylflavanones with n -butyl bromide. A plausible mechanism is proposed and discussed. This protocol provides a highly effective annulation via one carbon-oxygen (C-O) and one carbon-carbon (C-C) bond formations.
