Abstract:The benzofuran scaffold is an important heterocyclic core component found in several natural products and in polymers. Typically, 2,3‐disubstituted benzofurans are notable building blocks in many medicinal and biologically active compounds. In addition, 3‐substituted benzofurans act as anticancer agents, antitubercular agents, antimicrobial agents, antiviral agents, and anti‐inflammatory agents. This addendum discusses the preparation of 3‐ethoxycarbonyl benzofurans from salicylaldehydes and ethyl diazoacetate… Show more
