As part of a research programme targeting novel molecules derived from nitrogen derivatives of o-hydroxyaryl ketones [1] we synthesised 7-hydroxy-8-acetylcoumarin oxime and we subsequently oxidized it with lead tetraacetate (LTA) as well as with diacetoxy iodobenzene (DIB). The reactions led to the formation of the oxidative cyclisation product, 9-methyl-2H-chromeno[8,7-d]isoxazol-2-one N-oxide , in good yields. It is well known that isoxazole ring possesses interesting biological activity especially as acetyl cholesterinase inhibitor [2] and as antimicrobial agent [3].

7-Hydroxy-8-acetylcoumarin oxime was prepared according to the literature method [4] whereas commercially available lead tetraacetate as well as diacetoxy iodobenzene were supplied by Aldrich.

Method A

1.37 g (3.09 mmol) of LTA are added to a suspension of 0.5 g (2.30 mmol) of 7-hydroxy-8-acetylcoumarin oxime in 20 ml THF in an ice-bath. The mixture was then stirred magnetically at 0-4 οC for 2 hrs. Filtration of the precipitate, which was formed, gave a solid which was recrystillised from petroleum ether to afford (0.33 g, 67 %) of the desired as white crystals. The product was identified by its 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS and elemental analysis.

Method B

0.75 g (2.33 mmol) of DIB are added to a suspension of 0.5 g (2.30 mmol) of 7-hydroxy-8-acetylcoumarin oxime in 20 ml CH2Cl2 in an ice-bath. The mixture was then stirred magnetically at r.t. for 24 hrs. Evaporation of the solvent gave an oil which was then subjected to column chromatography (silica gel 70-230 mesh). Elution with a mixture of petroleum ether / ethylacetate 1:1 afforded (0.32 g, 65 %) the desired as white crystals. The product was identified by its 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS and elemental analysis.
