In the racemic title compound, C21H18O4, the chromone ring is essentially planar [maximum deviation from the least-squares plane = 0.026 (3) Å], with a dihedral angle of 78.18 (12)° between the benzene rings of the chromanone and chromenone moieties. In the crystal, there are weak π-π stacking inter-actions [minimum ring centroid separation = 3.9286 (17) Å].

The heterocyclic ring of the title compound, C9H7BrO2, obtained by bromination of 4-chromanone with copper bromide, adopts a half-chair conformation. The supramol-ecular structure is governed by a weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bond. There is also π-π stacking between symmetry-related benzene rings; the centroid-centroid distance is 3.9464 (18), the perpendicular distance between the rings is 3.4703 (11) ...

In the title compound, C(17)H(14)O(3), the dihedral angle between the meth-oxy-benzene unit and the benzene ring of the chromanone system is 64.12 (3)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions.

Coronary vasodilating activity of chromone derivatives has been reported.2) It is worth examining if chromanone derivatives have a coronary vasodilating effect, since they are chemically related to chromone. In the present study the effects of some benzylidene chromanones and its related compounds on coronary blood flow and myocardial oxygen consumption in anesthetized dogs and also on the oxyg...

The dichloromethane extract of Calea uniflora afforded a mixture of two novel chromanones, uniflorol-A (1) and uniflorol-B (2), and one known chromanone, 2,2-dimethyl-6-(1-hydroxyethyl)-chroman-4-one (3). The structures of these compounds were determined by spectroscopic methods. Biological activity of the compounds against Leishmania major promastigotes was evaluated. Mixture of the novel chro...

In the title compound, C(22)H(24)O(3), the non-fused benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 52.56 (7)° with the benzene ring of the chromanone unit. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by a weak intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-action and the crystal packing is stabilized by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions. The isopropyl group is disordered over two positions, with site occupancies of 0....

The reaction of alkaline 2,4-dihydroxyquinoline 1 and 1-tetralone 2 in 2% sodium hydrox­ ide solution with vinyl acetate afforded a brown solid 3, which on treatment with phospho­ rous oxychloride yielded 2,4-dichloro-3-[l’-(l-chloro-naphth-2-yl)ethyl]quinoline (4). The same reaction of 1 and chromanone 7 with vinyl acetate afforded 2,4-dichloro-3-[l’-(4-chloro2-methyl-chromen-3-yl)ethyl]quinol...
