Abstract
An efficient multicomponent method is described for the synthesis of a variety of trisubstituted 2-pyrones and polysubstituted phenols based on the Zn-catalyzed cascade reactions between ynone compounds and active methylene group containing diesters. The synthesis of titled compounds were achieved using Zn-catalyzed ynone synthesis followed by Knoevenagel condensation and elimination. Further, this methodology is applied to accomplish the synthesis of poylsubstuited phenols.
