All melting points were determined on a Büchi apparatus and are uncorrected. The ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker AM300 spectrometer in CDCl3 with TMS as internal standard. All coupling constants are given in Hz and chemical shifts are given in ppm.
Typical Experimental Procedure for the Preparation of 3a: DMAD (1.0 mmol) was added to a stirred solution of chromone-3-carboxaldehyde 1a (1.0 mmol) and isoquinoline (1.0 mmol) in DME (20 mL) at r.t. and the reaction mixture was stirred for 12 h. Distillation of the solvent in vacuo followed by column chromatography using petroleum ether-EtOAc (3:1) as eluent afforded the chromenopyridoisoquinoline 3a (Scheme  [¹] ).
