An efficient synthesis (yields >70%) of linear 7H-furo[3,2-g]chromen-7-one derivatives (psoralens or furocoumarins) has been carried out starting from ring-substituted 2-(coumarin-7-yl)oxyaldehydes; moreover, the phototoxicity of these compounds has been tested on a cultured cell line of murine fibroblast.

The expected 7-alkoxy-2-methylbenzo[b]furans were effectively given in the CsF-mediated Claisen rearrangement of phenyl propargyl ethers with an o-alkoxy substituent on the benzene ring. On the other hand CsF did not affect the production of the corresponding benzo[b]furans when ethers, carrying a propargyl residue modified by either 1,1-dimethyl or 3-ethoxycarbonyl functions, were used as substrates in the rearrangement.
