Synthesis and spectral studies on some tetrahydrobenzoxanthen-11-ones: crystal and molecular structure of 9,9-dimethyl-12-(2-nitrophenyl)-8,9,10,12-tetrahydrobenzo[a]xanthen-11-oneAbstract A series of 12-aryl-8,9,10,12-tetrahydrobenzo[a]-xanthen-11-ones have been synthesized by the multicomponent reaction (MCR) of b-naphthol, aryl aldehydes, and dimedone by using BF 3 :OEt 2 as a catalyst. The derived compounds have been analyzed by IR, NMR (1D and 2D), and mass spectra. The single crystal X-ray structural analysis of 9,9-dimethyl-12-(2-nitrophenyl)-8,9,10,12-tetrahydrobenzo[a]-xanthen-11-one evidences the envelope conformation of the cyclohexane ring and the pyran ring tends to adopt flattened-boat conformation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
