Chromene- and Quinoline-3-Carbaldehydes: Useful Intermediates in the Synthesis of Heterocyclic Scaffolds

Chromenes and quinolines are recognized as important scaffolds in medicinal chemistry. Herein, the efficient use of chromene- and quinoline-3-carbaldehydes to synthesize other valuable heterocycles is described. These carbaldehydes are obtained in excellent yields through the Vilsmeyer-Haack reactio...
