One-pot synthesis of polyfunctionalized 4H-pyran derivatives bearing fluorochloro pyridyl moiety

Polyfunctionalized 4H-pyran derivatives bearing fluorochloro pyridyl moiety were readily prepared in high yields via one-pot multicomponent reaction catalyzed by piperidine. This present protocol provides an efficient synthetic route to the target compounds with the characteristics of short reaction time, high yield, and easy separation of the products.
