Abstract

An efficient and simple synthesis of various 3-(trifluoromethyl)chromones from enamino ketones is described. The key step in the synthesis involves the introduction of a trifluoromethyl (CF3) moiety onto a chromone structure. The significant features of this method include simple operational procedures, the high purity and yield of the product, and excellent regioselectivity.
