The reaction mixture was heated under reflux for 48 h, diluted with water and extracted with ether (3×50 ml). The organic phase was washed with water, 10% sodium hydroxide, water and brine and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was submitted to column chromatography (silica gel, EA:Hex, 1:20) yielding 1.2 g of 5-fluoro-8-methoxy-2H-chromene (34%).
