Condensation of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid with phloroglucinol afforded 9,11-dihydroxy-12H-benzo[a]xanthen-12-one (6). Construction of an additional dimethylpyran ring onto this skeleton, by alkylation with 3-chloro-3-methyl-1-butyne followed by Claisen rearrangement, gave access to 6-hydroxy-3,3-dimethyl-3H,7H-benzo[a]pyrano[3,2-h]xanthen-7-one (12) and 5-hydroxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H,6H-benzo[a]pyrano[2,3-i]xanthen-6-one (13), which were methylated into 6-methoxy-3,3-dimethyl-3H,7H-benzo[a]pyrano[3,2-h]xanthen-7-one (14)

Alkylation of 2-hydroxydibenzofuran with 3-chloro-3-methyl-1-butyne, followed by Claisen rearrangement, gave access to 3,3-dimethyl-3Hbenzofuro[3,2-f][1]-benzopyran. Several derivatives modified at the pyran 1,2-double bond were prepared, including the corresponding dihydro compound and (+/-)-cis-diol, which was converted into diacetate and cyclic carbonate upon acylation.

Condensation of 3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid with phloroglucinol afforded 1,3-dihydroxy-12H-benzo[b]xanthen-12-one. Construction of an additional dimethylpyran ring onto this skeleton, by alkylation with 3-chloro-3-methyl-1-butyne followed by Claisen rearrangement, gave access to a series of benzo[b]pyrano[2,3-i]xanthen-6-ones and benzo[b]pyrano[3,2-h]xanthen-7-ones related to psorospermine and benzo[b]acronycine.
