Abstract

The self-condensation reaction of substituted phenylpropiolic acid derivatives (5a-d) by microwave irradiation at 100 °C for only three minutes proceeded smoothly to give substituted naphtho[2,3-c]furan-1,3-dione derivatives (1a-d) as single products in moderate to good yields, respectively.
