**Abstract**

Coumarin derivatives have a myriad of applications in medical science, biomedical research, and many industrial branches. For this reason, many efforts are being dedicated to the development of novel and more practical methods for synthesizing these compounds. This chapter describes several methods of one-pot synthesis of coumarin derivatives, including von Pechmann condensation, Knoevenagel condensation, Baylis-Hillman reaction, Michael addition, Kostanecki reaction, vinyl phosphonium salt-mediated electrophilic reaction, and Heck-lactonization reaction. The methods are compared with each other, and the advantages and disadvantages of each of them are addressed.
