A new method for the synthesis of pyran fused coumarins by 3-bromo-4-hydroxycoumarins as cyclic α-halo ketones based on an organocatalyst assisted three-component tandem reaction is investigated. To the best of our knowledge, cyclic α-halo ketones have not yet been used for the synthesis of pyran fused coumarins.
