Cycloadditions with o-Benzoquinone-diimines, VI. Reactions of 1,3-Diarylbenzofurans with o-Benzoquinone-diimines. Stable Chair and Boat Conformers in the 5,6,11,12-Tetrahydrodibenzodiazocin Series

N,N'-Diarylsulfonyl- and N,N'-Dibenzoyl-o-benzoquinone-diimines (4) react remarkably easy with 1,3-diarylbenzofurans (5) to give cycloadducts (6).In one case (6a) the chair and boat conformer of this type of adduct could be isolated and the conformations clarified by X-ray crystallography.On heating compounds 6 can rearrange intramolecularly to give 2H-benzimidazoles (7). - Keywords: Cycloadditions, o-Benzoquinone-diimines
