Process for the preparation of ipriflavone consisting in the following steps: a) reaction of 2,4-dihydroxy-phenyl-benzyl-ketone of formula (II) with ethyl orthoformate in dimethylformamide as solvent and in the presence of a catalyst consisting of morpholine, to yield 7-hydroxyisoflavone of formula (III), b) separation of product (III) from the reaction residue, c) alkylation of product (III) from step b) with isopropyl halide to obtain ipriflavone, wherein: I. step a) is carried out at a temperature ranging from 115 to 120°C using a 2,4-dihydroxy-phenyl-benzyl-ketone (II) weight/solvent volume (w/v) ratio lower than 1:4; II. step b) consists in the precipitation of the corresponding salt with dicyclohexylamine of formula (IV). The process yields 7-hydroxyisoflavone (III) in high yields within short reaction times (2 h max.) and ipriflavone with impurity ~ 0.1 %.
