Abstract
The xanthone 8 results from the base catalysed self-condensation of th e chromone 1. The chromone 2 gives the xanthones 9 and 11 with sodium and DMF-POCl3 respectively, phenol 14 with NaOMe, and the pyran 22 wit h 2-thiomethylchromone 6. The enamine 16 on Vilsmeier-Haak reaction af fords the chloroxanthone 12. The pyran 15, isolated as a byproduct fro m the reaction of omega-acetyl-2-hydroxyacetophenone with HC(OEt)3-AC2 O, affords the xanthone 13 by refluxing with NaOMe in MeOH.
