A new synthetic approach is described for building the coumarin scaffold through the Lewis acid-promoted cyclization of novel aryl 3-(dimethylamino)prop- 2-enoates 2a - 2f. The latter precursors were prepared via aminomethylenation of the corresponding aryl acetates 4a - 4f with the Bredereck reagent. This approach was used for the synthesis of biologically active natural compounds 1a - 1f, through a three-step procedure starting from the corresponding phenols.
