Abstract
We hereby report a simple and efficient method for the preparation of 4-methylcoumarins series, including Coumarin 120 (7-amino-4-methylcoumarin) from phenols (or naphthols) and ethyl acetoacetate in the presence of 3 mol% InCl3. Coumarins were obtained in good yields (52–92%) through Pechmann condensation, under a rapid and environmentally friendly protocol using a high-speed ball mill mixer at room temperature, with short reaction times, under solvent-free conditions.
