Abstract

Remarkably tuned regioselectivities are obtained in the condensation of 3,5-dihydroxyphthalide (1) with several α,β-unsaturated aldehydes using DBU and neutral conditions. The linear (65-81%) and angular (51-60%) bioactive natural and unnatural benzopyran derivatives are produced exclusively in one step and are described via phenol-keto resonance.

Key words

3,5-dihydroxyphthalide - phenol-keto resonance - regioselective condensation - α,β-unsaturated aldehydes - benzopyran synthesis

Upon silica gel column chromatographic purification of 3, only 1 was eluted from the column. Neutral alumina column purification gave only DBU.
