Procedure
In 50 ml of acetonitrile 4.9 g (20 millimoles) of the potassium salt of 7-hydroxy-2,2,5-trimethyl-4-chromanone are dissolved and the solution is stirred in the presence of 0.5 g (2 millimoles) of 18-Crown-6 at room temperature for 30 minutes. To the mixture 4.25 g (1.9 ml, 30 millimoles) of methyl iodide are added and the reaction mixture is stirred for a further hour. The inorganic salt is filtered off and the solvent is removed. The residue is taken up in chloroform, washed twice with 50 ml of water each, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated. The product is crystallized from 90% ethanol. Thus 3.75 g of the desired compound are obtained, yield 85%. Mp.: 86°-88° C.
