Mode opératoire

3-(3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-7-hydroxy-8-methyl-chromen-4-one (9.82 g, 31 mmol), acetic anhydride (62 ml) and pyridine (6.2 ml) were combined in a round bottom flask and heated to reflux. The reaction was cooled to room temperature after 3 hours of heating, and a crystalline solid formed. The solid was filtered and rinsed with H2O (1 L). 1H NMR in d-CDCl3 indicated pale brown crystals was acetic acid 3-(3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-8-methyl-4-oxo-4H-chromen-7-yl ester in 90% purity (7.214 g, 71%).
