Abstract

There is provided a 2-stage process for making 2H-1-benzopyrans wherein an alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde is reacted with an alkanol or an alkane-diol in the presence of a dehydrating compound which is an orthoformate and an aluminum oxide/silicon oxide catalyst to form an aliphatic acetal, which is then condensed in a second stage with a phenol in the presence of base in an organic solvent.
