Reaktionsschritte

To a suspension of ethyl 6-chloro-5,7-dimethyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate (4.00 g, 11.9 mmol) in 40 mL of EtOH was added a solution of NaOH (1.2 g, 30 mmol) in 18 mL of H2O. The reaction was heated at reflux for 1.5 h. Once cooled, the reaction was neutralized with 2 N HCl. The product that precipitated from solution was filtered and washed with H2O. After drying in the vacuum oven at 50° C., a pale yellow solid, 6-chloro-5,7-dimethyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromene-3-carboxylic acid, (3.46 g, 95%) was isolated.
