Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

The reaction of chromone-3-carboxylic acid with indoles in boiling ethanol proceeds as a 1,4-nucleophilic addition with successive opening of the pyrone ring and decarboxylation to afford a series of previously unknown trans-indolyl chalcones in 27–60% yields.
