Later, Junek and Aigner [2] found a second case of this heterocyclization via additionof 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone (1a, “triacetic acid lactone”, Scheme 1) to tetracyanoethylene, thuspreparing a substituted 2-amino-4H,5H-pyrano[4,3-b]pyran (B).

TL;DR: In this paper, a range of enol ethers, linked via their oxygen atom to the anomeric center of a pyran ring system, were shown to undergo oxygen to carbon rearrangement upon treatment with a Lewis acid to give the corresponding 2-carbon substituted products.
Abstract: A range of enol ethers, linked via their oxygen atom to the anomeric centre of a pyran ring system, was shown to undergo oxygen to carbon rearrangement upon treatment with a Lewis acid to give the corresponding 2-carbon substituted products. At low temperature, trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate catalysed rearrangements of anomerically linked 6-substituted tetrahydropyranyl enol ethers gave selectively the trans-pyranyl ketones, whereas at higher temperatures selective formation of the cis-pyranyl ketones was observed. In a simple application of the methodology the cis-selective rearrangement was used as the key step in a concise total synthesis of a constituent of civet.

TL;DR: The structure of 2-methyl-6-methylthio-4-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)benzonitrile (3f) was ascertained by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and displayed a variety of weak interactions as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: A convenient synthesis of highly functionalised biaryls 3 and 6 has been delineated through carbanion induced C–C bond formation from 6-aryl-3-cyano-4-substituted-2H-pyran-2-ones (1, 4) and acetone. Extension of this reaction, using aromatic ketones led to (4,6-diarylpyran-2-ylidene)acetonitrile (7) in lieu of the anticipated 2,4-diaryl-6-methylthiobenzonitrile (8). The structure of 2-methyl-6-methylthio-4-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)benzonitrile (3f) was ascertained by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and displayed a variety of weak interactions, responsible for the stability and packing of the molecule in the crystalline state.

TL;DR: Using monochromatic irradiation in the UV and visible ranges, mathematical methods were devised which were capable of analyzing the system during its dynamic evolution and evaluating the quantum yields of the color‐forming photoreactions.
Abstract: The photokinetic behavior of a photochromic compound, 2,2-spiro-adamantylidene-2H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran (Py), has been investigated by using monochromatic irradiation in the UV and visible ranges. An unusually complex photochemistry occurs whereby two colored forms (o-quinone–allides) are produced, one of which is thermoreversible whereas the other is not thermoreversible but photoreversible. These are the result of ring opening of the pyran C–O bond to a short lived open-form intermediate which converts to the two different colored forms by twisting around different C–C bonds. Their spectra and molar absorption coefficients were obtained in acetonitrile solution. The kinetic parameters of the thermal bleaching (rate constant and activation energy) and photobleaching (quantum yield) were measured. A plausible reaction mechanism is proposed. Based on this mechanism, mathematical methods were devised which were capable of analyzing the system during its dynamic evolution and evaluating the quantum yi...

TL;DR: In this article, a simple mechanistic model for the ring opening/closing reaction in room temperature solution was proposed for 3,3-diphenylnaphtho[2,1-b] pyran in solution.
Abstract: Transient absorption spectroscopy with femtosecond time resolution was used to probe the photochemical ring opening process of 3,3-diphenylnaphtho[2,1-b] pyran in solution. Analysis of the temporal evolution of the spectra from 0.4 ps to 100 ps has allowed us to detect and identify some of the intermediates involved in the photochemical formation of colored photomerocyanine isomers. From these data and those of recent ab initio and semi-empirical calculations on related photochromic systems, a simple mechanistic model was proposed for the ring opening/closing reaction in room temperature solution.
