Microwave irradiation or low temperature improved synthesis of antiparasitic Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts

It is reported the synthesis of 24 Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts (3a-3l/6a-6l) using microwave irradiation at 80 ºC or conventional protocol at 0 ºC to promote the reactions between aromatic aldehydes and methyl acrylate or acrylonitrile (81-99%). It is shown that the reaction of 2-hydroxy(4-bromophenyl)methyl acrylate formation is reversible at 120 ºC.
