Abstract

Background: In recent years, photoredox catalysis using eosin Y has gained considerable significance in organic chemistry. It is evolving as a powerful approach in modern organic synthesis for the activation of small molecules.

Objective: The use of organic dyes to convert visible light into chemical energy by involving a single-electron transfer with organic substrates has innumerable applications.

Method and Results: The present strategy is the first example of visible light promoted, aerobic, oxidative cyclization of chromeno[4,3-b]chromenes and hexahydro-1H-xanthenes via the formation of C–O and C–C bonds to afford excellent yield of the products in a simple one-pot operation under mild reaction conditions.

Conclusion: The major advantages of the present methodology include short reaction time, cost effectiveness, easy work-up, broad substrate scope and high atom economy.

Keywords: Chromeno[4, 3-b]chromenes, hexahydro-1H-xanthene, multicomponent, photoredox catalysis, visible light, synthesis.
