A series of novel vitamin D–coumarin hybrids were synthesised by esterification of the corresponding coumarin-3-carboxylic acids and vitamin D or vitamin D CD-ring alcohol in CH2Cl2 under microwave irradiation. They were obtained in higher yields (from 64–81% up to 79–87%) and shorter reaction time (from 3 h down to 15 min), compared with earlier conventional methodologies. The structures of all the target compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. This provides an attractive and alternative method for the preparation of high-value vitamin D–coumarin hybrids.
