(Intermediate 1) That is, o-vinylphenols are produced by a completely new rearrangement reaction (vinyl rearrangement) similar to the 01aisen rearrangement (allyl rearrangement) using an alkenyl ether as an intermediate without generating an acetal. It is thought that coumarans are synthesized by the ring closure. It is conceivable that the 0-alkenylphenol (intermediate 2) produced as an intermediate at this time further reacts with the aldehyde as a raw material, but in the production method of the present invention, a ring-closing reaction occurs immediately at this stage to produce coumaran. It is believed that p-1 toluenesulfonic acid works effectively in this ring-closing reaction, and when p-1 toluenesulfonic acid is used as a catalyst, the selectivity for producing coumaran is high.
