CAN-Mediated Oxidations for the Synthesis of Xanthones and Related Products
2010
Reaction of (2,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)(2-hydroxyphenyl)methanone with ceric ammonium nitrate furnished the xanthone, 2,3-dimethoxy-9H-xanthen-9-one. Under the same conditions the related (1,4-dimethoxynaphthalen-2-yl)(2-hydroxyphenyl)methanone resulted in the formation of 12a-methoxy-5H-benzo[c]xanthenes 5,7(12aH)-dione. Other examples of this novel transformation are also outlined.
