Synthesis of p-Chlorophenols (and -naphthols) from the Thermal Rearrangement of 4-Chlorocyclobutenones

A systematic study of the reaction of 4-hydroxycyclobutenones with thionyl chloride is reported.A useful model evolves from this study which allows the prediction of the site of chlorination for unsymmetrical examples.The chlorination is envisaged to invo
