Synthesis of Chromans via [3 + 3] Cyclocoupling of Phenols with Allylic Alcohols Using a Mo/<i>o</i>-Chloranil Catalyst System Yoshihiko Yamamoto Kouhei Itonaga 10.1021/ol802800s.s001 https://acs.figshare.com/articles/journal_contribution/Synthesis_of_Chromans_via_3_3_Cyclocoupling_of_Phenols_with_Allylic_Alcohols_Using_a_Mo_i_o_i_Chloranil_Catalyst_System/2880919 The combination of a molybdenum complex (CpMoCl(CO)<sub>3</sub> or [CpMo(CO)<sub>3</sub>]<sub>2</sub>) and <i>o</i>-chloranil was used as a catalyst in the [3 + 3] cyclocoupling of phenols and allylic alcohols under microwave heating conditions. Substituted chromans were selectively obtained in moderate to good isolated yields. 2009-02-05 00:00:00 Phenol microwave heating conditions Catalyst phenol Allylic Alcohols Substituted chromans Synthesi combination Mo allylic alcohols Cyclocoupling catalyst CpMoCl CpMo molybdenum yield cyclocoupling Chroman
