Procedure
A 1.0 g (1.49 mmol) sample of 2-[(6-methoxy-6-oxohexyl)oxy]-6-[6-[[4-oxo-8-(3-phenylpropyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-7-yl]oxy]hexyl]benzenepropanoic acid methyl ester from the preceding example was catalytically hydrogenate over 10% palladium on carbon, in 30 mL of 1:1 methanol-ethyl acetate, at room temperature and 1 atmosphere, using thin layer chromatography to monitor the reduction of the starting chromone. The catalyst was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo giving an oily product which was purified by flash-chromatography. There was obtained 0.38 g (38%) of the title chromanone as a colorless oil.
