Abstract

Abstract : The double Michael reactions between benzofuran‐3‐one or 1‐indone and symmetric dienones in the presence of catalytic ionic liquids were successfully developed and spiro[benzofuran‐2, 1'‐cyclohexane]‐3‐one or spiro[cyclohexane‐1, 2'‐indene]‐1', 4(3' H )‐dione derivatives containing a spiro quaternary stereogenic center, which widely exist in biologically active products and building blocks in organic synthesis, were obtained in excellent yields (up to 99%). This catalytic system was also extended to the double Michael reaction of less reactive 1‐indone and the desired products were also obtained in 31%‐62% yields. The catalytic system was highly active and efficient for a broad of substrates under mild conditions.
