| With hydrogenchloride In lithium hydroxide monohydrate at 100℃; for 24h; Sealed tube; Experimental Procedure 3 5,5’- [(2-Hydroxy- 1.3 -propanediyl)bi s(oxy)lbi s [4-oxo-4H- 1 -benzopyran-2- carboxylic acid diethyl ester A suspension of cromolyn sodium salt (1.0 g, 2 mmol) in EtOH (100 mL) and con. HC1 (1 mL) was heated in a sealed reactor tube for 24 h at 100°C. The white solid was dissolved to give a clear colorless solution while hot. It was allowed to cool to room temperature and NaHCO3 (1.0 g) was added. After stirring for 30 mm at 25°C, solvent was removed by roto-evaporation. Chromatography on silica gel of the crude material using 5:95 methanol/methylene chloride yielded the diethyl ester (0.8 g, 76 % yield); mp 154-156°C; ‘HNIVIR (CDC13, 300 MHz) 1.42 (t, 3H, J=7.1 Hz, CH3), 2.73 (br s, 1H, OH), 4.44 (q, 4H, J=7.1 Hz, 2OCH2CH3), 4.32-4.59 (m, 5H, CHOH, 20CH2), 6.80 (s, 2H, 2 vinyl-H), 6.99 (d, 2H, J=8.24Hz, 2Aro-H), 7.12 (d, 2H, J=8.24Hz, 2Aro-H), 7.17 (d, 2H, J=8.24Hz, 2Aro-H),7.71 (t, 2H, J=8.24 2Aro-H). | 76% |
