Procedure
A mixture of ethyl 6-bromo-8-nitro-4-oxo-4H-1-benzopyran-2-carboxylate (5.0 g, 14.6 mmol), 10% palladium-on-charcoal (0.541 g), formic acid (7.90 ml) and N,N-dimethylformamide (42 ml) was stirred at 145° C. for 5.75 h under inert atmosphere. After this time the mixture was left to cool and the catalyst was removed by filtration, washing it with N,N-dimethylformamide. The resulting filtrate was evaporated to dryness and the obtained residue was purified by chromatography through a silica gel column. Eluting with hexane:chloroform, 85:15, 2.109 g of the title product were recovered (55% yield).
