Summary
Starting from 3-methoxy-7-hydroxyflavone, 2-methyl-3-methoxy-7-hydroxychromone and 7-hydroxyflavone aldehydes have been prepared. In these compounds the aldehyde groups occupy the eighth positions. By the action of sodium acetate and acetic anhyrdide the corresponding chromono-and flavono-α-pyrones have been synthesised.
