A new four-step synthetic procedure has been developed to prepare 3,3-dimethyl-4-morpholino-3,4-dihydrocoumarins from substituted salicylaldehydes, morpholine, and isobutyraldehyde. It involves aminal formation, deamination, enamine formation, hetero-Diels-Alder reaction, hydrolysis, and oxidation. The aminal formation, subsequent one-pot domino deamination, enamine formation, and hetero-Diels-Alder reaction were achieved in microwave-assisted catalyst-free conditions. The following hydrolysis and oxidation steps, performed conventionally, gave quantitative yields. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
