Abstract
A convenient method for the synthesis of 6-allylcoumarins (6a-c) is de scribed from 2-allyloxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (2) Compound 2 on reacti on with phosphoranes (3a-c) provide (E)-ethykinnamates (4a-c) which on Claisen rearrangement (4a-c-->5a-c) followed by cyclisation give 6-al lylcoumarins (6a-c).
