| Abstract: | A three‐component reaction for the synthesis of new coumarin‐fused tetracyclic system from 4‐hydroxycoumarin, aldehydes, and 5‐aminopyrazoles/5‐aminoisoxazole is described. In the presence of acetic acid, 4,7‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridines ( 4 ) and pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridines ( 5 ) were obtained in acetonitrile and dimethylsulfoxide medium, respectively. The reaction gave rise to 4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridin‐6(7H)‐ones ( 6 ) in acetic acid–ethanol combination system, which involved the C–O bond cleavage. 4‐Hydroxy‐6‐methyl‐2H‐pyran‐2‐one and acenaphthylene‐1,2‐dione were also examined, affording the corresponding C–O bond cleavage products. Mechanism indicates that the reaction is reversible in acetic acid–ethanol combination system. |
