Flavones were prepared using a one-pot procedure starting from the corresponding 2′-hydroxyacetophenones. The latter were treated with 3 equiv of aroyl chloride in wet K2CO3/acetone (1% w/w water) to afford a good yield of flavone and a smaller amount of 3-aroylflavone. Evidence was obtained that the reaction proceeds via a triketone intermediate. When the reactants were heated in 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) and pyridine, the 3-aroylflavone was obtained exclusively. Use of a stoichiometric amount of aroyl chloride afforded only the corresponding flavone.

Oxophilicity of cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN) can be controlled by addition of hydrogen peroxide and such a control has been utilized to prepare 3-aroyl-2-aryl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-ones 2a-d from 3-arylidene-2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-4H-1-benzopyran-4-ones 1a-d
