To 13.5 g. of 5-(3-methyl-2-octyl)-resorcinol and 10.5 g. of 4,4-dimethyl-2-carboethoxycyclopentanone [Canadian J. of Chem. 47, 1982-1988 (1969)] in 59 ml. of benzene was added 4.3 ml. of phosphorous oxychloride with stirring and refluxing for 6 hours. After the red solution was allowed to stand at room temperature for 8 hours, it was added to an ice and sodium carbonate solution. The colorless mixture was extracted with ether, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The mixture was extracted with cold pentane and the pentane was discarded. The residue [9-hydroxy-7-(3-methyl-2-octyl)-2,2,-dimethyl-4-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocyclopenta[c] [l]benzopyran] was obtained as a gummy solid.
