To a solution of 82.2 g (2.06 mol) of sodium hydroxide in 585 ml of water were added 3.7 liters of isopropanol and then 490 g (2.06 mole) of 7-hydroxyflavone. To the above mixture were then added 1645 ml (20.5 mole) of epichlorohydrin and the mixture heated at 70° C. for 2 hours with stirring. The hot reaction mixture was filtered to remove dimeric by-product. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure (water aspirator) at 50°-60° C. The semisolid residue was treated with 4.4 liters of refluxing isopropanol and more of the dimer filtered from the hot mixture. The clear filtrate on cooling yielded a solid. This was filtered, washed with 600 ml of isopropanol and air dried; yield 434.3 g (72%) of a tan-colored product, mp 123°-130° C. (a pure sample melts at 133°-135° C. from i-PrOH). The crude epoxide was used for further reaction.
