Steps:

General procedure for the synthesisof 4H-chromen-4-one
General procedure: An oven-dried 50 cm3 round bottom flask equipped witha magnetic stir bar was charged with chromanone 1a(0.7 mmol), n-Bu4NI [33, 34] (30 mol %), and aqueous solutionof TBHP (5-6 M in decane, 4 equiv.) at room temperature.The reaction mixture was then refluxed at 80 °C for 5 h.The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC. Afterthe completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture wasadmixed with ethyl acetate and transferred into a separating funnel. The ethyl acetate layer was sequentially washed with5% solution of sodium bicarbonate and brine solution. Thecombined organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4,filtered and concentrated in vacuum. The resulting residuewas purified over a column of silica gel (100-200 mesh) togive 2a-2s with petroleum ether/ethyl acetate as the eluent.
