We describe the first studies on the chemistry of 2-(2-oxo-3-phenylpropyl) benzaldehydes, which were converted into 3-benzylisochromen-1-ones via the corresponding 2-(2-oxo-3-phenylpropyl)benzoic acid. The 2-(2-oxo-3-phenylpropyl) benzaldehydes proved to be convenient starting materials for the synthesis of 3-phenyl-2-naphthols. Oxidation of the latter compounds resulted in a novel, efficient synthesis of 3-phenyl-1,2-naphthoquinones, which were efficiently transformed into 2-hydroxy-3-phenyl-1,4-naphthoquinones.

Upon flash vacuum pyrolysis acyloxybenzocyclobutenes 4 rearrange through an intramolecular 1,5-acyl shift to 2-formylbenzyl ketones 6 which can be converted to 3-substituted isoquinolines 7.
