“…1) namely, 4-hydroxy-2-chromenone (A), 2,4-chromandione (B), and 2-hydroxy-4-chromenone (C). These three possible prototropic transformations have been intensively examined by various chemical reactivity, spectral, thermochemical, and computational methods (Aguirre-Pranzoni et al, 2011;Jacquot et al, 2001;Sousa et al, 2010;Traven et al, 2002). A glance at these standard reference works, the involvement of the tautomeric forms of 4-hydroxycoumarin, that is, 2,4-chromanedione (B) or 2-hydroxy-4-chromenone (A), seems likely.…”
