Abstract
β-Bromo-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids are coupled and cyclized with terminal alkynes in DMF at 110°C in the presence of a catalytic amount of CuI and amino acid along with a base to give alkylidenefuranones in good yields. Similar reaction under microwave irradiation also gave alkylidenefuranones in higher yields.
