(7) Procedure for the Preparation of 13
To a solution of 12 (500 mg, 2.06 mmol) in DCE (10 mL)
was added 4-hydroxy-7-N,N-dimethylaminocoumarin (423
mg, 2.06 mmol) and a catalytic amount of PTSA. After the
mixture was stirred at 50 °C for 6 h, H2O (5 mL) was added
to the mixture and the product was extracted twice with
CH2Cl2. The combined organic extracts were dried over
anhyd MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The resulting
crude product was purified by column chromatography
(EtOAc–hexane, 7:15) to give a blue solid with a 35% yield;
mp 258–259 °C. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): d = 9.62 (s, 1
H), 8.34 (dd, J = 8.4, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 7.98 (d, J = 8.7 Hz, 1 H),
7.90 (dd, J = 8.1, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 7.87–7.84 (m, 2 H), 7.74
(ddd, J = 8.1, 7.2, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 7.63–7.52 (m, 4 H), 6.60 (dd,
J = 9.0, 2.4 Hz, 1 H), 6.42 (d, J = 2.4 Hz, 1 H), 3.09 (s, 6 H).
13C NMR (75 MHz, CDCl3): d = 176.9, 165.1, 164.2,
156.48, 156.47, 155.9, 154.5, 139.1, 136.2, 134.9, 132.2,

108.4, 108.1, 97.3, 40.2. IR (KBr): n = 1674, 1615, 1488,
1205 cm–1. HRMS (EI): m/z calcd for C26H19NSO3:
425.1086; found: 425.1081 [M+].
