Reaction Steps

A solution 11.9 g of 7-methoxy-4-chromanone, 13.8 ml of 3-buten-2-ol and 120 mg of p-toluenesulfonic acid in 14 ml of 2,2-dimethoxypropane and 120 ml of anhydrous toluene was boiled under reflux for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was subsequently concentrated in a vacuum and purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/diethyl ether 4:1). 6.3 g (41%) of (RS)-2-(2-buten-1-yl)-7-methoxy-4-chromanone were obtained as a yellow oil.
