4-Chloroisocoumarins can be conveniently prepared from 2-alkynylaryloate esters via the activation of alkynes by electrophilic chlorine, generated in situ from N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) in the presence of 10 mol % trimethylsilyl chloride (TMSCl), which leads to 6-endo-dig-selective chlorinative annulation to give the desired products in moderate to quantitative yields. The procedure employs readily available reagents and can be conveniently carried out on a wide scope of substrates under mild conditions (0 °C to rt). Furthermore, the reaction is scalable for gram-scale preparation of 4-chloroisocoumarins. Additionally, 4-bromo- and 4-iodoisocoumarins can be prepared in moderate to good yields by replacing NCS with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and N-iodosuccinimide (NIS), respectively.

A series of 4-chloroisocoumarins were conveniently synthesized from o-alkynylbenzoates via PhICl2-mediated intramolecular cyclization under metal-free conditions. PhICl2 plays the role of both the oxidant and the chlorine source to e

A facile and convenient synthesis of isocoumarins via an organomercurial route is reported.The synthesis involves reaction of methyl 2-alkynbenzoates with mercuric acetate to give the corresponding isocoumarin mercurials which serve as intermediates to afford the appropriate isocoumarins having substituents as Cl,I,Br,COCH3 etc.
