Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl 7-(1,1-dimethyl-2-oxoethyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate (500 mg, 1.46 mmoles) in 20 mL of dioxane was added a solution of 80% NaClO2 (727 mg, (582 mg), 6.43 mmoles) in 5 mL of water. The resulting mixture was stirred in an oil bath at 90° C. for 1.5 h, and cooled. The mixture was partitioned between DCM and water, further extracted, and the combined organic extracts dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and evaporated. Chromatography of the residue over silica gel using 30% EtOAc—hexane—1% HOAc as eluent gave the title compound, 400 mg, as an oil.
