Chromone-2-carboxylic acid is used in the cyclic form 3?-oxopyrazolidino[4?,5??2, 3]-chroman-4-one, gives the azide of chromone-2-carboxylic acid, the curtius rearrangement of which is used to synthesize a number of 2-acylaminochromones and it is an orally active antiallergic agent.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
