Kostanecki acylation

The Kostanecki acylation is a method used in organic synthesis to form chromones[1] or coumarins[2] by acylation of O-hydroxyaryl ketones with aliphatic acid anhydrides, followed by cyclization.[3] If benzoic anhydride (or benzoyl chloride) is used, a particular type of chromone called a flavone is obtained.

Mechanism

The mechanism consists of three well-differentiated reactions:[4][5]

  1. Phenol O-acylation with formation of a tetrahedral intermediate
  2. Intramolecular aldol condensation to cyclize and to form a hydroxydihydrochromone
  3. Elimination of the hydroxyl group to form the chromone (or coumarin)
