Photocyclization of 2-cinnamylphenols via excited state proton transfer (ESPT) involving the lowest-lying styrenic singlet

The attachment of substituents to the styrenic ring of trans-2-cinnamylphenol produces a decrease in the singlet energy of the styrenic moiety. As a consequence, the resulting chromophore becomes responsible for the photophysical and photochemical properties of this type of bichromophoric compounds. Both fluorescence emission and photocyclization occur predominantly from the lowest-lying styrenic singlet. The result is a marked regioselectivity towards 6-membered ring products, via an excited state proton transfer.
One step synthesis of 2-alkenylchromanes via inverse electron-demand Hetero-Diels–Alder reaction of o-quinone methide with unactivated dienes

The synthetically important 2-alkenylchromane derivatives were constructed in good yields under metal-free condition via inverse electron demand Hetero-Diels–Alder reaction of o-quinone methides with unactivated dienes. This strategy features mild conditi
An efficient synthesis of flavans from salicylaldehyde and acetophenone derivatives
Mazimba, Ofentse,Masesane, Ishmael B.,Majinda, Runner R.
, p. 6716 - 6718 (2012/01/02)
An efficient total synthesis of flavans from the reactions of salicylaldehyde and acetophenone derivatives is reported. The synthesis involves preparation of chalcones through an aldol reaction followed by reduction of both the double bond and the ketone using NaBH4 and an acetic acid mediated cyclization. Methoxy groups on the aromatic rings did not affect significantly the yields of the procedure.
