4-Hydroxycoumarin-3-carboxaldehyde (5) was obtained from chromone-3-carboxaldehyde (1) via chromone-3-carboxamide (2) and 3-aminomethylene-2H-chroman-2,4-dione (3). 3-Alkylaminomethylenechroman-2,4-diones (7,8) were obtained from the reaction of primary aliphatic amines with chromone-3-carboxamide (2). Treatment of chromone-3-carboxamide with sodium methoxide gives 3-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)-2H-chromeno[2,3-b]pyridine-2,5(1H)-dione (9). (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
