Hydrogen Bromide → 3-(3-Fluorophenyl)-7-hydroxychromen-4-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-(3-Fluorophenyl)-7-methoxychromen-4one (320 mg) was refluxed with 47% HBr (18 ml) until disappearance of the starting material. The mixture was poured into water and the precipitate was filtrated and dried yielding 3-(3-fluorophenyl)-7-hydroxychromen-4-one. 1H NMR (400 MHz, d6-DMSO) δ: 10.87 (s, 1H), 8.49 (s, 1H), 7.99 (d, 1H, J 8.7 Hz), 7.43-7.49 (m, 3H), 7.20-7.24 (m, 1H), 6.97 (dd, 1H, J 8.7, 2.2 Hz), 6.90 (d, 1H, J 2.2 Hz).
