Reaction Steps

4-hydroxycoumarin (6.17 mmol, 1.0 g), PPh3 (6.48 mmol, 1.70 g), and 2-(3-hydroxy-propyl)-isoindole-1,3-dione (6.48 mmol, 1.33 g) is disolved in 20 mL THF and is cooled to 0° C. DIAD (6.79 mmol, 1.33 mL) is added dropwise at 0° C. A precipitate is formed immediately and the reaction mixture thickens. The precipitate is filtered, is washed with Et2O and is dried to afford the title compound (1.62 g, 75%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 300 MHz) δ 7.82 (4H, m), 7.61 (2H, m), 7.37 (1H, m), 7.21 (1H, m), 5.83 (1H, s), 4.28 (2H, t, J=5.75 Hz), 3.83 (2H, t, J=6.25 Hz), 2.19 (2H, m); MS (ESI, Pos.) calcd for C20H15NO5 m/z [M+H]=350.1, found 350.1.
