1-Aminobenzotriazoles 9 having 7-hydroxyalkyl substituents are efficiently convened into the corresponding benzynes 4 when treated with N- iodosuccinimide which then undergo highly efficient intramolecular trapping by the pendant hydroxyl groups leading to dihydrobenzofurans 24-26 and dihydrobenzopyrans (chromans) 27, with incorporation of a synthetically useful iodine atom adjacent to the new ether bond, which allows subsequent and high-yielding homologations using Stille, Sonogashira and Heck couplings.

Double deprotonation of N-Boc-7-methyl-1-aminobenzotriazole 6 using (n)BuLi-TMEDA-THF [-78°C -> 0°C) results in an essentially quantitative conversion to the dianionic intermediate 7. Trapping at the carbon-centred anion occurs selectively under suitable conditions with alkylating agents, aldehydes and ketones to give good the excellent yields of the 7-substituted-1-aminobenzotriazoles 8-15, precursors of ortho-substituted benzynes.
