A one-pot three component reaction has been developed for the synthesis of substituted cyclopropanes employing 4-bromomethyl-2H-chromen-2-one/quinolin-2(1H)-ones, aromatic aldehydes and activated nitriles.

Electronic absorption and emission spectra of 3-acetyl coumarin, 3-(bromoacetyl) coumarin and 3-(di bromoacetyl) coumarin have been recorded at room temperature in thirteen solvents with different polarities. Both ground and excited state dipole moments have been calculated for both locally excited and charge transfer transitions by using the solvatochromic method. Excited state dipole moments of all the three compounds are higher than their ground state values. DFT calculations have been profound to estimate their ground and excited state dipole moments. The estimated change in dipole moment by the application of microscopic solvent polarity parameter and bulk solvent polarity methods are in close agreement. Concentration dependent dual fluorescence has been observed in the emission spectra of all the three compounds. Graphical Abstract Dual fluorescence of 3-acetyl coumarin (I) in different solvents.
