A series of (2-amino-3-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-4H-chromen-4-yl)phosphonate derivatives were synthesized in good to excellent yields by Michael addition/cyclization of diphenyl phosphite to diverse substituted (E)-2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)acrylonitriles under catalyst-free condition in water. Meanwhile, one-pot three component reaction of salicylaldehyde, 2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)acetonitrile and diphenyl phosphate was also tested using Et 3 N as catalyst to synthesize these phosphonate derivatives
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.
