The reaction of N-methoxy-N-methylamides with the anion of ethyl 2-methoxy-, or 2,4-dimethoxy-6-methylbenzoate gives the corresponding ketones, which are cyclised to give the 3-substituted 8-methoxy- and 6,8-dimethoxyisocoumarins in good overall yield.

Esters of orsellinic acid dimethyl ether (11) are attacked by alkyl-lithium reagents to give ketones and in some cases smaller amounts of alkenes as a result of a second nucleophilic attack.However at -78 deg C attack on (11) by its own anion (10) is suff
