C. Mhiri et al., Polymer supported reagents: Novel methodology for selective and general synthesis of iminocoumarins, SYN COMMUN, 29(19), 1999, pp. 3385-3399
A selective synthesis of iminocoumarins 3 was accomplished, starting from s
alicylaldehydes 1 and nitriles 2, by the use of Amberlite IRA 900 resin as
a polymeric solid support. The possibility of using various arylacetonitril
es enhances the synthetic versatility of this strategy.
