Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5- (3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzoyl)-6-hydroxyindan (2.8 g), diethyl malonate (3.6 g) and DBU (0.12 ml) was heated at 160°-170° C. for 2 hours. After cooling, the resulting crystals were collected by filtration and washed with ethanol to give ethyl 4-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-oxo-2,6,7,8-tetrahydrocyclopenta [g] [1]benzopyran-3-carboxylate (3.1 g, 87.8%). Recrystallization from ethanol gave colorless prisms, m.p. 208°-209° C.
