Abstract An efficient synthetic method for multi-substituted xanthones was developed. The reaction of diaryliodonium salts and salicylates was employed for the preparation of the xanthones. This method proceeded through an intermolecular etherification-acylation to give target heterocycles in good yields (up to 91%). Multi-substituted xanthones were gained by shifting the substituent of salicylates or

In the presence of triphenylphosphine, copper(II) chloride can catalyze an intermolecular ortho-acylation reaction of phenols with aryl aldehydes. The reaction proceeds smoothly with a wide range of starting materials, and furthermore, it can be used to synthesize xanthone derivatives in a single step in high yields.

The direct intramolecular acylation of esters was developed by using the combined system of FeCl3 with Cl2CHOCH3. This unique cooperative system offered a new and efficient approach to biologically important xanthone and chromone derivatives with regioselectivity. Examples were reported, and control experiments were carried out to examine the effect of the benzyl esters and Cl2CHOCH3.
Methods are provided for forming a xanthone derivative via reacting a 2-substituted benzaldehyde with a phenol derivative to form the xanthone derivative.
