Abstract

The reaction of 2-hydroxy-2-(polyhaloalkyl)chroman-4-ones with diethoxymethyl acetate readily occurs at 140-150 °C for 15 minutes to give 3-(polyhaloacyl)chromones in good yields.

Key words

chroman-4-ones - diethoxymethyl acetate - formylation - 3-(polyhaloacyl)chromones

General Procedure for the Synthesis of Chromones 2.
A solution of chromanone 1 (1 mmol) in diethoxymethyl acetate (1.0 g, 6 mmol) was heated at 140-150 °C for 15-20 min. After cooling, the resulting mixture was diluted with hexane (3 mL). The solid product obtained on standing was collected by filtration, washed with hexane, and dried. Spectral and analytical data for selected products follows.
