Abstract: A facile and efficient one-pot synthesis of polysubstituted benzenes was achieved via the Michael addition of malononitrile with α,β-unsaturated imines and a sequential tandem reaction. This reaction generates polysubstituted 2,6-dicyanoanilines in high yields (15 examples, isolated yields of 57-91 %), and proceeds under mild reaction conditions (60°C, 10 min). In addition, a possible mechanism accounting for the reaction is proposed.

Keywords: 2,6-dicyanoanilines – one-pot – tandem reaction – malononitrile – α,β-unsaturated imines
