“…Different types of Bronsted acids [21][22][23][24] and bases [25] have been reported in the literature to serve as effective catalysts for the synthesis of diversity of pharmacologically valuable reactions in synthetic organic chemistry. One-pot synthesis of (2-amino-3-cyano-4H-chromene-4-yl) phosphonic acids diethylesters by the use of InCl 3 as a Lewis acid catalyst [26] reported by Perumal et al after then few other methodologies have been outlined for the synthesis of such compounds using β-cyclodextrin, [27] ethylenediamine diacetate, [28] diethylamine, [29] PEG, [30] I 2, [6] TMG, [31] K 3 PO 4 [32] as catalysts. All these methods are associated with laborious process, long reaction time, low product yields, use of expensive ionic liquids, usage of toxic solvents, and moisture sensitive catalysts.…”
