Abstract
The use of cyanuric chloride (2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine) and N-methyl morpholine enables an efficient and general protocol for a rapid synthesis of substituted 3-aryl coumarins. A series of substituted phenyl acetic acids have been successfully reacted with substituted 2-hydroxy benzaldehydes to afford 3-aryl coumarins in good to excellent yields.
