Procedure
5-(Benzyloxy)-4-oxo-4H˜pyran-2-carboxylic acid (68.9 g, 280 mmol) was added to 300 mL of quinoline at 235° C. and the mixture was heated at reflux for 30 min. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and concentrated to give a residue which was purified by silica gel chromatography to give 3-(benzyloxy)-4H-pyran-4-one. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 7.64 (dd, J=5.6, 0.8 Hz, 1H), 7.53 (d, J−0.4 Hz, 1H), 7.39-7.28 (m, 5H), 6.40 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H)S 5.06 (s, 2H). MS (M+H)+ 203.0.
