With the optimal reaction condi- tions [NaOAc （120 mol%）, water, 70 ~C, 7 h], the scope of the domino reaction was explored and the green ap- proach provided the desired products in moderate to good yields at elevated temperature under aqueous-mediated conditions. A mechanistic rationalization for this reaction is also provided. The absorption characteristics of the compounds were examined by UV-Vis spectra and fluorescence spectroscopy. All compounds were fluorescent in solution emitting at blue light （432--433 nm）, green light （512--536 nm）, or yellow light （591 nm）.展开更多
