Cn. Ocallaghan et Tbm. Mcmurry, 2-HYDROXY-2-METHYL-2H-1-BENZOPYRAN-3-CARBOXAMIDE DERIVATIVES PRODUCEDBY KNOEVENAGEL CONDENSATION, Journal of chemical research. Synopses, (3), 1997, pp. 78-79
The reaction of 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes with 3-oxobutanamide affords me
thyl-2H-3,4-dihydrol-1-benzopyran-3-carboxamides and 2-hydroxy-2-methy
l-2H-1-benzopyran-3-carboxamides depending on the particular aldehyde
and the experimental conditions used.
