Thionylchloride (109.21 g, 918 mmol) was added under nitrogen atmosphere at 20-25° C. to a suspension of 6-fluorochroman-2-carboxylic acid (90.00 g, 459 mmol) and DMF (1.68 g, 23 mmol) in toluene (635 ml). Afterwards, the suspension was heated to an internal temperature of 60-70° C., whereupon a clear yellow solution was obtained under simultaneous evolution of a gas. The reaction was completed within 70 min at this temperature, and the mixture was then concentrated in vacuum (bath temperature 45-50° C., pressure≦35 mbar) to yield the chroman-2-carboxylic acid chloride as a yellow oil (112.65 g). The crude product was dissolved in methylene chloride (65 ml) and added slowly under nitrogen atmosphere to a solution of Meldrum's acid (70.90 g, 482 mmol) and pyridine (72.62 g, 918 mmol) in methylene chloride (261 ml) at an internal temperature of 0-10° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to 20-25° C. within 50 min. and stirred at this temperature for additional 30 min. Methylene chloride (325 ml) and water (325 ml) were then added to the formed brown suspension. The two phase mixture was stirred for 5 min, separated, and the organic layer was subsequently extracted twice with water (200 ml each), then with 2N aqueous HCl solution (250 ml) and finally with water (250 ml). After drying over Na2SO4, the organic layer was filtrated and concentrated in vacuo (≦50 mbar) to give a brown, viscous oil (170.76 g), which crystallized after 10 min at room temperature. The solid was slurried at 20-25° C. in diisopropyl ether (500 ml) for 2 h. After filtration of the suspension, the wet product was washed with diisopropyl ether (70 ml) and dried in vacuo (13 h at 40° C.) to give a yellow-ocher colored solid (yield: 114.71 g, HPLC-purity: 96.98%).
