The key step of this process involves a base-mediated ring opening of the 3-aroylbenzofurans and subsequent Michael addition of the resulting 1,3-dicarbonyl intermediate with acrylate/acrylamide, followed by the deformylation in one-pot. The resulting products undergo an acid-mediated dehydrative cyclization to arrive at these targets.</span></p>},
