Abstract
Some phthalimidoxymethylpyrones were synthesized by means of reactions of      bisbromomethylpyrones and N-hydroxyphthalimide and treated with hydrazine in methanol to give bisaminoxymethyl derivatives  of 4-pyrones. Reaction of these compounds with arylaldehydes led to six E,E and E,Z isomers.
