Procedure
A solution of 4-hydroxy-chromen-2-one (650 mg) and 2-carboxybenzyladehyde (300 mg) in EtOH was heated to reflux for 4 hours, cooled to room temperature then concentrated in vacuo to give a crude oil, which was diluted with water. The precipitated 4-hydroxy-chromen-2-one was collected by filtration (490 mg). A second crop of solid was collected from the mother liquor and triturated with hot EtOAc and filtered to provide 4-Hydroxy-3-(3-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isobenzofuran-1-yl)-chromen-2-one as white solid. MS: 293 [M−H].
