Abstract

A collection of pyrano[3,2-c] chromene, 4H-chromene and 4H-pyran were synthesized in excellent yield employing an innocuous, inexpensive and naturally occurring borax-catalyzed multicomponent domino reaction. The present protocol offers advantages in terms of higher yields, short reactions time and no workup and no column chromatography.
