The title compound 1 undergoes cyclization and self‐condensation in the presence of dil. NaOH yielding chromone ( 2 ) and/or 1‐(3‐chromonyl)‐2‐(2‐hydroxybenzoyl)ethene ( 3 ). With benzaldehyde in the presence of piperidine in boiling ethanol, 1 reacts both by cyclization, and self‐condensation combined with cyclization to give 2, 3 and bis(3‐chromonyl‐phenyl)methane ( 5 ). If less than 0.1 M aq. NaOH is used 1 and benzaldehyde produces 3‐(α‐hydroxybenzoyl)chromone ( 4 ) which can also be converted into 5 .
