New Syntheses of Flavones from Diels–Alder Reactions of 2-Styrylchromones withortho-Benzoquinodimethanes

Abstract: The first reported cycloaddition reactions of 2‐styrylchromones with ortho‐benzoquinodimethane afforded 2‐[2‐(3‐aryl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydronaphthyl)]chromones. These cycloadducts were converted into the corresponding 2‐[2‐(3‐arylnaphthyl)]chromones (benzoflavone derivatives) by bromination/dehydrobromination processes. These benzoflavone derivatives were also obtained in one‐pot cycloaddition reactions of 2‐styrylchromones with ortho‐benzoquinodibromomethane.

“…As far as we are aware only one paper was published on this subject. 44 2-Styrylchromones 37 reacted with ortho-benzoquinodimethane 51 (highly reactive diene generated in situ by thermal extrusion of SO 2 from sulfone 50) to give chromones 52 (Scheme 12). In some cases, when there was no substitution at C-α of 2-styrylchromones 37 (R = H), the obtained cycloadducts 52 could be dehydrogenated into 2-[2-(3-arylnaphthyl)]chromones 53, novel benzoflavone-type compounds.…”

“…Complete aromatization of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthylchromone 67 (R 1 , R 3 = H, R 2 = Me) derived from 2-(α-methylstyryl)chromone was not possible; instead, 2-(2-methyl-3-phenyl-1,2-dihydronaphth-2-yl)]chromone 71 was isolated in 78 % yield. [99] Years later, Silva's group extended the study to reactions between o-benzoquinodimethane (66) and 2-SCs substituted at C-5. The corresponding 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthylchromones 67 (R 1 = OH) were prepared in lower yields (62-63 %).…”

“…[98] Acting as dienophiles, a series of 2-SCs reacted with excess quantities of highly reactive o-benzoquinodimethane (66, formed in situ by the thermal extrusion of sulfur dioxide from 1,3-dihydrobenzo[c]thiophene 2,2-dioxide) in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene at reflux to provide 2-(3-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphth-2-yl)]chromones 67 (R 1 = H) in 76-89 % yields (Scheme 17). [99] Complete aromatization of the obtained cycloadducts was achieved by a two-step approach involving benzylic bromination with NBS in the presence of benzoyl peroxide and subse-also obtained and easily converted into the desired naphthylchromones 68 (R 1 = H) by treatment with ammonium formate and Pd/C in methanol at reflux.…”

“…To the best of our knowledge, the use of 2-styrylchromones as dienophiles in Diels-Alder reactions has only been reported by us in a couple of papers involving the symmetric ortho-benzoquinodimethane. 15,16 This extremely reactive diene was used in the synthesis of a large number of naphthylchromones and constitutes a versatile intermediate in other cycloaddition reactions. 17 Much less attention has been given to the chemistry of heteroaromatic analogues of ortho-quinodimethanes.…”

“…26 Recently we have reported the synthesis of novel flavone derivatives from the Diels-Alder reaction of (E)-2-styrylchromones with the symmetric ortho-benzoquinomethane. 15,16 The good results obtained led us to extend that work to the Diels-Alder reaction of (E)-2-styrylchromones 1a-h 27 with the asymmetric pyrimidine ortho-quinodimethane 2 (Scheme 1). This reactive diene was generated in situ by thermal extrusion of sulfur dioxide from the corresponding sulfone 4-methoxy-2-methyl-5,7-dihydrothieno [3,4-d]pyrimidine 6,6-dioxide.…”
