Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-methyl-7-hydroxycoumarin (I) (14.5 g), anhydrous K2CO3 (5 g), allyl bromide (15 ml) and acetone (400 ml) was refluxed for 12 h under stirring. From the refluxed mixture the solid was filtered and washed several times with acetone. The acetonic solution and the pooled washings were concentrated to dryness and the residue crystallized from MeOH, yielding 6-methyl-7-allyloxycoumarin (IV) (11.4 g; m.p. 124°-5° C.). ##STR10##
