DBU-Mediated Construction of 1,3,5-Trisubstituted Benzenes via Annulation of α,β-Unsaturated Carboxylic Acids and α‑Cyano-β-methylenones

A DBU-mediated synthesis of 1,3,5-trisubstituted benzenes was developed via the [2 + 4] annulation of in situ activated α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids and α-cyano-β-methylenones. The dual role of DBU as Brønsted base and nucleophilic Lewis base is the key for the success of the reaction.
