The palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of iodophenols (1) with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol gave alkynylphenols (2). Catalytic hydrogenation of 2 over Raney nickel and the subsequent dehydration of the resultant alkylphenols (3) gave regioselectively the desired prenylphenols (4). Dehydration of alkylphenols (3f-h) gave chromans (7).
