Abstract

A series of 2H-thiopyran derivatives has been synthesized via one-pot multicomponent reactions of dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates, arylisothiocyanates, and α-bromoketones in the presence of triphenylphosphine in water under both conventional heating and microwave irradiation. The yields obtained under ­microwave irradiation were superior and the reaction times were ­reduced in comparison with conventional heating.

Key words

2H-thiopyran - triphenylphosphine - α-bromoketone - microwave irradiation - arylisothiocyanate

  • 11 General Procedure for the Preparation of Compounds 5 To a magnetically stirred solution of α-bromoketone (2 mmol) in H2O (10 mL) was added Ph3P (2 mmol) at 70 °C under microwave irradiation (MICROSYNTH, Mylestone Company). After 45 min, Et3N (2 mmol) and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate 2 (2 mmol) were added to this mixture. After 15 min the aryl isothiocyanate was added, and the reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h at 70 °C under microwave irradiation. After completion of reaction (monitoring by TLC), the reaction mixture was filtered and the solid residue was washed with cold Et2O to afford 5.
