TL;DR: In this article, a series of heterocycles was synthesized by the reaction of α,β -unsaturated ketones of benzopyrans or coumarins with various nucleophiles in aqueous medium bearing two points of diversity.
Abstract: A series of heterocycles was synthesized by the reaction of α,β -unsaturated ketones of benzopyrans or coumarins with various nucleophiles in aqueous medium bearing two points of diversity. Compared to an identical library generated by conventional parallel synthesis, a microwaveassisted procedure dramatically decreased reaction times from hours to minutes, and yields of products and intermediates were improved remarkably. This synthetic approach is ecofriendly in nature which features water as solvent, microwave irradiation, and usage of a “green” catalyst (K2CO3).

TL;DR: The antiproliferative activity of three benzopyrans isolated from the chloroform extract of the aerial parts of Hypericum polyanthemum was analysed in order to determine their effect on the growth and cell cycle in the U‐373 MG glioblastoma cell line.
Abstract: The antiproliferative activity of three benzopyrans isolated from the chloroform extract of the aerial parts of Hypericum polyanthemum was analysed in order to determine their effect on the growth and cell cycle in the U-373 MG glioblastoma cell line. Compound 1 was less cytotoxic than compounds 2 and 3. A synergistic effect was noticed when the three benzopyrans were used simultaneously. The cytotoxicity noted could be related to an arrest in G2/M phase, leading to apoptosis in the U-373 MG glioblastoma cell line.

TL;DR: In this article, an intramolecular conjugate addition of allyloxy anions to diphenylphosphinoyl-substituted benzene rings is described.
Abstract: A new synthetic method for the preparation of multisubstituted benzopyrans that involves an intramolecular conjugate addition of allyloxy anions to diphenylphosphinoyl-substituted benzene rings is described. The intermediate anion is trapped with electrophiles providing benzopyrans that are readily oxidized with O 2 to intermediates containing a peroxide that is easily converted into benzopyran-2-ones (i.e. coumarins).

Abstract: Treatment of 2-fluoro-5-nitrobenzyl bromide with active methylene compounds in the presence of excess potassium carbonate in acetone leads to the formation of highly functionalized 4H-1-benzopyrans by a tandem SN2-SNAr reaction sequence. The reaction works well with β-keto esters, β-keto sulfones, β-keto phosphine oxides, β-keto phosphonates and β-keto nitriles. The reaction is simple to perform and affords products in 50-92% yields.

TL;DR: The reaction of hydroxy-substituted benzo-15(18)-crown-5(6) ether with β-phenylcinnamaldehyde in the presence of titanium tetraethoxide yielded crown-annulated 2,2-diphenylbenzopyrans as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The reaction of hydroxy-substituted benzo-15(18)-crown-5(6) ether or benzo-18-crown-6 ether with β-phenylcinnamaldehyde in the presence of titanium tetraethoxide yielded crown-annulated 2,2-diphenylbenzopyrans. The compounds are photochromic, and the spectral characteristics of their colored form are unusual for this class of chromenes.
