  • [14]. This strategy was also successfully applied to the preparation of some furanyl-substituted terpyridines. The synthetic sequence starts from furanyl aldehydes 1–3 and 2-acetylpyridine (4). The first step is a base-mediated aldol-condensation that yields the α,β unsaturated ketones 5–7. Reacting
