A detailed account regarding a formal [3 + 3] cycloaddition method using 4-hydroxy-2-pyrones and 1,3-diketones is described here. This formal cycloaddition reaction or annulation reaction is synthetically useful for constructing 2H-pyranyl heterocycles. The usage of alpha,beta-unsaturated iminium salts is significant in controlling competing reaction pathways to give exclusively 2H-pyrans. Most significantly, experimental evidence is provided to support the mechanism of this reaction that involves a sequential Knoevenagel condensation and a reversible 6pi-electron electrocyclic ringclosure of 1-oxatrienes.

Condensation of various 6-substituted 4-hydroxypyrones 1 with 1-cyclohexenecarboxaldehydes in the presence of L-proline in ethyl acetate gave high yields of substituted 1H,7H-5a,6,8,9-tetrahydro-1-oxopyrano[4,3-b][1]benzopyrans. The reaction presumably occurs via the 1,2-addition of the pyrone with the aldehyde followed by dehydration and then cyclization through a 6 Pi electrocyclic process. A remarkable asymmetric induction was obtained from a stereogenic center (C4) of the cyclohexenecarboxaldehyde [such as (S)-perillaldehyde] to provide only the C5a,7-trans tricyclic pyrone products. On the other hand, condensation of S-(formyloxy)- or 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-cyclohexene-carboxaldehydes with pyrones 1 gave mixtures of C5a,6-cis and -trans products. Several of the tricyclic pyrones strongly inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity, DNA synthesis, and tumor cell growth in vitro.
