Abstract

The von Pechmann reaction is a venerable reaction and it is one of the most simple and straightforward methods used to produce coumarins. Classically, the process consists of the condensation of phenols with β-ketoesters in the presence of a variety of reagents and gives good yields of 4-substituted coumarins. 7 Several acid catalysts have been used in the von Pechmann reaction including sulfuric acid, 4a aluminium chloride, 8 phosphorus pentoxide, 9., and ...
