A rapid and efficient method is developed to synthesize a series of benzoxanthene derivatives by the reaction of aldehydes and 2‐hydroxynaphthalene‐1,4‐dione in mixed solvent of acetic acid and ethylene glycol under microwave irradiation. The method has the advantages of short synthetic route, operational simplicity and higher yields (70%∼85%).
