Abstract
3-Allyl-4-hydroxycoumarins and 4-allyl-3-hydroxycoumarins are obtained in 90%92% yields by the thermal [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement of the corresponding ethers. 3-Allyl-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrone is obtained from the direct alkylation of 4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrone with allyl halide. These substrates on treatment with SnCl4I2 at 25 °C give a mixture of both 5-exo- and 6-endo-cyclization products. However, regioselective formation of 5-exo products is observed when the reactions are conducted at lower temperatures (05 °C, kinetically controlled), while the reaction at a higher temperature (50 °C, thermodynamically controlled) affords regioselectively 6-endo cyclization products.Key words: stannic chloride, iodine, claisen rearrangement, 6-endocyclization, 5-exocyclization, kinetically controlled reaction, thermodynamically controlled reaction.
