Chemical Equation Reprentation First one and then the other: A rhodiumcatalyzed addition of aryl and alkenyl boronic acids to phthalaldehyde and subsequent intramolecular esterification is described (see scheme; cod = l,5-cyclooctadiene, dppb = 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane). The method is facile and practical for accessing 3-aryl and 3-alkenyl phthalides in moderate to good yields. Several functional groups are tolerated under the reaction conditions.

The studies presented here deal with the convenient and efficient one-step conversion of o-alkylbenzoic acids into their corresponding isobenzofuran-1 (3H)-ones (phthalides) using NaBrO3/NaHSO3 in a two-phase system. A range of o-alkylbenzoic acids was used with the object of getting a variety of phthalide derivatives as multipurpose biologically active compounds. Seventeen phthalides have been synthesized and tested for cytotoxicity, antibacterial and antifungal activities. Some of these compounds showed promising cytotoxic effects against Artemia salina. Compounds 4j-4p were highly active against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria among all tested compounds. In the fungicidal assay, the compounds showed a broad spectrum of activity against six fungi. All compounds were characterized via elemental analysis, UV, IR, mass and-NMR spectroscopy.

A variety of 2-(1-bromoalkyl) benzoic acids 4 undergo intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction when treated with a CsF-Celite as solid base in acetonitrile under reflux condition to give the corresponding cyclized phthalides in moderate to very good yield. These 2-(1-bromoalkyl) benzoic acids 4 are formed by the α-bromination of 2-alkylbenzoic acids 3 using N-bromosuccinimide and a catalytic amount of α,α′ -azoisobutyronitrile in carbon tetrachloride under reflux.
