A synthetic strategy of a palladium-catalyzed cascade annulation reaction followed by aerial oxidation was designed to construct 6H-benzo[c]chromene scaffolds. Various 6H-benzo[c]chromenes were synthesized under mild conditions using easily accessible p-QMs and commercially available o-hydroxyarylboronic acids. One the chromenes has been ambiguously confirmed single-crystal XRD analysis. Interestingly, our could be transformed into valuable 6H-benzo[c]chromen-6-ones via oxidation.
