Efficient one-pot reductive alkylations of malononitrile with aromatic aldehydes and one-pot synthesis of new 2-amino-3-cyano-4H-chromenes

A powerful new one-pot method has been developed for the reductive alkylation of malononitrile with aromatic aldehydes. This new procedure has vastly improved the yield and efficiency and increased the scope for the aromatic aldehydes. Incorporating water as the catalyst in ethanol for the condensat...
