Procedure
To a stirred solution of NaOH (2.4 g, 0.06 m) in DMSO (125 ml) and water (125 ml) was added 7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-3,6,6-trimethyl-1-hydroxy-6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran (13.1 g, 0.054 m) in DMSO (125 ml) and water (125 ml) and then epichlorohydrin (34.8 g, 0.376 m) and the mixture stirred for 5 hours, treated with water (0.5 L) and extracted with ether (3×300 ml). The combined ether extracts were dried over MgSO4 and evaporated to give 7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-3,6,6-trimethyl-1-(oxiranylmethoxy)-6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran as a pale yellow oil, 14.0 g. This material was of sufficient purity to use as is for further chemical processing.
