Abstract
The first synthesis of the 6-hydroxy-4-methoxycoumarin (5) was carried out in 25% overall yield from 6-methoxy-4-hydroxycoumarin (1) by hydrolysis of the methoxy group and subsequent selective methylation of the hydroxyl grou p at position 4. The H-1 and C-13 NMR data of compounds 1-6 are reported.
