3,4-Dihydro-6-hydroxy-5,7-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H-1-benzopyran (5), obtained by nuclear prenylation of 2,6-dimethoxyquinol, on methylation followed by Friedel-Crafts acetylation gives 8-acetyl-3,4-dihydro-7-hydroxy-5,6-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H-1-benzopyran (7).Dehydrogenation of 7 with DDQ followed by methylation affords alloevodione (9).Similar isoprenylation of 2,6-dihydroxy-4-methoxyacetophenone gives a mixture of dichroman (10) and the monochroman (11).Dehydrogenation of 10 and 11 furnishes franklinone (3) and alloevodionol (1) respectively.
