Abstract
Dipetalolactone and 4‐methyldipetalolactone are prepared in excellent yield by a one‐pot tandem propargylation/Claisen rearrangement/cyclization reaction of the corresponding 5,7‐dihydroxycoumarins with 3‐chloro‐3‐methylbut‐1‐yne in the presence of Cs2CO3 under microwave irradiation. The analogous reactions of propargyl chloride with esculetins or 5,7‐dihydroxycoumarins led to dipropargyloxy derivatives. The later by treatment with gold nanoparticles supported on TiO2 or BF3.Et2O in N,N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) under microwave irradiation resulted in very good to excellent yield to the corresponding fused dipyranocoumarins. The reactions of esculetins with 3‐chloro‐3‐methylbut‐1‐yne gave mainly exomethylene fused dioxino[g]coumarins.
