Reaktionsschritte

A solution of 2.32g. (0.010 mole) of 6-allyl-7-hydroxy-8-methoxycoumarin in 8 ml. of chloroform was treated with 4.5 ml. of acetic anhydride/pyridine, 1:2. The reactants were stirred at 25° for 2.0 hours and then partitioned between 1N HCl/methylene chloride. The aqueous phase was further extracted with methylene chloride. The organic extracts were combined, dried over sodium sulfate, and evaporated to afford pure 7-acetoxy-6-allyl-8-methoxycoumarin as a white solid, mp 101°-102°. Recrystallization from ethanol afforded an analytical sample, mp 102°-103°.
