96 Synthesis of 7-bromochroman-4-ol
[0331j To a solution of 7-bromochroman-4-one (1.63 g, 7.2 mmol, 1.0 equiv) in MeOH (10 mL) was added NaBH4 (545 mg, 14.4 mmol, 2.0 equiv) and then stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. After evaporation of the solvent, the residue was purified by silica gel column (EtOAc/hexane=1 :2) to give 7-bromochroman-4-ol (1.61 g, yield: 98%) as a white solid. ESIMS (M+H-1 8) : 211.0. ‘H NMR (400 MHz, CDC13) 5: 7.17 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.05-7.0 1 (m, 2H), 4.76-4.73 (m, 1H), 4.27-4.24 (m, 2H) 2.14-1.99 (m, 2H).
