Polymethoxy-substituted phenanthrene-9-carboxylic acid or methylate is key intermediate for synthesis of tylophora alkaloids. (E)-4-(3,4-Dimethoxybenzylidene)-6,7-dimethoxy-1H-isochromen-3(4H)-one (6), oxided by 2,3-dichloro- 5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ)/CH3SO3H in CH2Cl2, gave no polymethoxy-substituted phenanthrene derivative (1) but unexpected 3-(2-(hydroxymethyl)-4,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-2H-chromen-2-one (2) and 4,5-dimethoxy-2-(6,7-dimethoxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)benzaldehyde (3). Further experiments showed that the steric hindrance of a ring of isochromen-3-one (6) resulted in coumarin (2) not phenanthrene derivative (1), supported by comparative experiments of 2,3-diphenylacrylic acid (10, 12). The possible mechanism of 2 via radical cation and 3 through oxidation of precursor of 2 was proposed based on the result of experiments.

Key words: polymethoxylphenanthrene, 3-isochromanone, 3-phenylcoumarin, cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC), radical cation, intramolecular oxidative coupling, DDQ
