TY - JOUR A1 - Schmidt, Bernd A1 - Riemer, Martin A1 - Schilde, Uwe T1 - Tandem Claisen Rearrangement/6-endo Cyclization Approach to Allylated and Prenylated Chromones JF - European journal of organic chemistry N2 - Allyl, dimethylallyl and prenyl ethers derived from o-acyl-phenols reacted upon microwave irradiation to form C-allylated or -prenylated chromone derivatives, depending on the substitution pattern of the arene and the allyl substituent. The reaction proceeds through a tandem Claisen rearrangement and 6-endo-trig or 6-endo-dig cyclization sequence. For prenyl ethers, the tandem sequence can be extended by a Cope rearrangement to furnish 6-prenylchromones. The method is potentially useful for the synthesis of natural products and drugs.
