The amino side chains do matter: chemoselectivity in the one-pot three-component synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromenes by supramolecular catalysis with amino-appended β-cyclodextrins (ACDs) in water

Abstract

The one-pot three-component synthesis of 2-amino-4<italic>H</italic>-chromenes was accomplished by supramolecular catalysis with well-designed amino-appended β-cyclodextrins (ACDs) in water, while the key role of amino side chains in chemoselectivity was determined for the first time.
