Abstract
The rearrangement of 4-methyIdihydrofuro[2,3-h]coumarin-9-one oxime in presence of Beckmann catalyst (mixture of glacial acetic acid with HC l or HBr) or POCl3 provides corresponding 8-halogeno-4-methyldihydrofu ro[2,3-h]coumarin- 9-ones formation. alpha-Halogenation of condensed f uranone ring seems to be due to imin-amin tautomerism of the oxime. 8- Halogeno-4-methyldihydrofuro[2,3-h] coumarin-9-ones have been transfor med to 9-acetoxy-8-halogeno-4-methylangelicins (due to their ketoenol tautomerism) and to 8-substituted derivatives (due to their reactivity with nucleophiles).
