Abstract
The oxidative rearrangement of (E,E)‐4‐alkyl‐2′‐hydroxy‐2‐cinnamylideneacetophenones 4, obtained by base‐catalysed aldol reaction of 2′‐hydroxyacetophenone and cinnamaldehydes with thallium(III) trinitrate, gave the corresponding 3‐alkyl‐4‐aryl‐1‐(2′‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐(dimethoxymethyl)‐3‐buten‐1‐ones. The cyclization of these acetal intermediates with hydrochloric acid gave (E)‐3‐styrylchromones 5. The stereochemistry of the 4‐alkyl‐2′‐hydroxy‐2‐cinnamylidene‐acetophenones 4 and 3‐styrylchromones 5 double bonds was established by NOE experiments.
