Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-bromo-4H-chromen-4-one (12 g, 53 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (24 mL) was added TMSOTf (12.5 mL, 69.18 mmol) at ambient temperature. After stirring for 1 hour, THF (210 mL) was added to the mixture at ambient temperature and cooled to −78° C. To the mixture was added n-propylmagnesium bromide (1.05M solution in THF, 66 mL, 69 mmol). After stirring for 1 hour at −78° C., 1M aqueous NH4Cl was added to the mixture. The mixture was warmed to ambient temperature and stirred overnight. The organic and the aqueous layers were separated, and the organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silicagel column chromatography (EtOAc-hexane, a linear gradient of EtOAc from 0 to 10%) to afford 6-bromo-2-propyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-chromen-4-one (11.42 g).
