A photocatalysis strategy for the regioselective synthesis of 3-functionalized coumarins is reported. With visible light irradiation, a direct and regioselective C(sp2)-C(sp3) coupling reaction of 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)acrylates with ethers or thioethers occurs by using Ru(bpy)3Cl2·6H2O as a photocatalyst and TBHP as an oxidant. The cascade process involves alkenylation of the C(sp3)-H bond of ethers and lactonization, furnishing 3-alkylated coumarins as the final products. This approach is characterized by a broad substrate scope, mild reaction conditions, and simplified operation. The synthesis of 3-alkylated coumarins could be realized by a one-pot procedure, starting from commercially available salicylaldehyde.

Flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) of o-allyloxycinnamate esters gives benzofurans in high yield, via cyclisation of a phenoxyl radical and subsequent cleavage of the carboxylic ester function; coumarins are obtained by FVP of the corresponding phenols.
