PG - 12843-12857 LID - 10.1039/d2ra01917e [doi] AB - A highly convenient and sustainable one-pot approach for the diversely-oriented synthesis of a variety of medicinally privileged amino-substituted 4,8-dihydropyrano[3,2-b]pyran-3-carbonitriles, and spiro[indoline-3,4'-pyrano[3,2-b]pyran]-3-carbonitrile/carboxylate derivatives on the basis of a domino three-component reaction of readily available carbonyl compounds including aryl aldehydes or isatins, active methylene compounds, and kojic acid as a Michael donor using secondary amine catalyst l-proline under ultrasound irradiation in aqueous ethanolic solution at ambient temperature has been developed. This methodology can involve the assembly of C-C, C[double bond, length as m-dash]C, C-O, C-N bonds via a one-pot operation, and following this protocol, a series of novel amino-substituted spiro[indeno[1,2-b]quinoxaline-11,4-pyrano[3,2-b]pyran]-3-carbonitrile/carboxylates have been synthesized. The practical utility of this method was found to be very efficient for scale-up reaction and other useful transformations. The methodology provides significant advantages including mild reaction conditions, energy-efficiency, short reaction time, fast reaction, simple work-up procedure, broad functional group tolerances, utilization of reusable catalyst, green solvent system, being metal-free, ligand-free, waste-free, inexpensive, etc. Excellent chemical yields have been achieved without using column chromatography. To address the issues of green and more sustainable chemistry, several metrics including Atom Economy (AE), Reaction Mass Efficiency (RME), Atom efficiency, E-factor, Process Mass Intensity (PMI), and Carbon Efficiency (CE) have been quantified for the present methodology that indicates the greenness of the present protocol.
