Reaction Steps

A Me2CO (250 ml) solution of 5-methyl-7-hydroxycoumarin (I; 15.0 g) was reacted with allyl bromide (20 ml) in the presence of K2CO3 (5.0 g) by refluxing the mixture for 5 hours. After chilling the K2CO3 is filtered off and washed with fresh Me2CO. The pooled filtrate and acetonic washings were concentrated to dryness and the residue crystallized from cyclohexane giving 5-methyl-7-allyloxycoumarin (IV; 13.8 g; m.p. 83° ). ##STR7##
