(IIa), on further Claisen rearrangement gave (IIb) which on cyclisation followed by dehydrogenation afforded 2,7-dimethy1-4-oxo-4H-difuro(3,2-c : 2',3'-h) benzopyran(IV). 2,6,8-Trhuethy1- 4.oxo-4H-difuro(3,2-c : 3',2'-g)benzopyran(V) and 2,9-dimethyl -4-oxo-4H-difuro­(3,2-c : 3',2'-benzopyran(VII) were similarly synthesised from 4-hydroxy-7-allyloxy­ 8-methylcoumarin(lc) and 4-hydroxy-6-allyloxycoumarin(Ie) respectively.
