Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.0 g of o-acetylphenyl 3,4-dimethoxy-5-nitrobenzoate in 12.5 ml of glacial acetic acid is treated with 0.94 g of sodium acetate and held at the reflux temperature for 4 hours. After cooling the mixture is poured into ice-water. The separated crystals are filtered under suction. After recrystallization from ethyl acetate/hexane there is obtained 2-(3,4-dimethoxy-5-nitrophenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one in the form of colorless crystals of m.p. 216°-217°.
