Abstract

Facile synthesis of several new kinds of spiropyrans has been accomplished through the condensation of chromene hemi-acetal esters with bifunctional nuclephiles, in which previously nonpractical amination and amidation processes help each other and all become practical processes of the corresponding tandem reactions.
