Abstract

Arylation of ortho-hydroxyarylenaminones by vast diversities of bench-stable and easy-to-use sulfonium salts and arenesulfonyl chlorides enables a straightforward synthesis of 3-arylchromones in very good yields. Light-mediated photoredox as well as electrophilic arylation showed good efficiency.
