Serendipitous synthesis of 2-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran derivatives starting from Baylis-Hillman adducts

Serendipitous synthesis of 2-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran derivatives 4a-g was achieved starting from the Baylis-Hillman adducts. In the reaction sequence, intramolecular oxygen atom transfer from nitrogen atom to arene moiety was observed.

Studies on the reduction of the nitro group in 3-aryl-2-methylene-4-nitro-alkanoates afforded by the Baylis-Hillman adducts: synthesis of 4-aryl-3-methylene-2-pyrrolidinones and 3-(1-alkoxycarbonyl-vinyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylates

The formation of substituted 2-pyrrolidinones and indoles by the reduction of the secondary nitro group in appropriate 3-aryl-2-methylene-4-nitroalkanoates afforded by Baylis-Hillman chemistry via different reducing agents is described. The 3-aryl-2-methy
