Abstract
Reaction of 3,4-diarylcoumarins (3,4-diaryl-2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyrans) and 3,4,5-triaryl- 2(5H)-furanones with dimethyl sulfide-borane complex affords the corresponding 2H-chromenes (2H-1-benzopyrans) and 2.5-dihydrofurans in high yields. 3,4-Diaryl-2(5H)-furanones afford the corresponding furans.Keywords
