Unexpected migration of a benzoyl group in the intramolecular Wittig reaction of o-acyloxybenzylidenephosphoranes with benzoyl chlorides: One-pot synthesis of isomeric 3-benzoyl-2-phenylbenzofurans

The reaction of o-acyloxybenzylidenetriphenylphosphoranes with substituted benzoyl chlorides in an aprotic solvent led, together with the expected 2-phenylbenzofuran, to isomeric 3-benzoyl-2-phenylbenzofuran derivatives. This result formally corresponds to intramolecular migration of the benzoyl group from the ortho oxygen atom to the ylide carbanion via cyclization and ring opening of the starting o-acyloxybenzylidenetriphenylphosphoranes.

A novel photochemical Wittig reaction for the synthesis of 2-aryl/alkylbenzofurans

The synthesis of 2-aryl/alkylbenzofurans has been achieved in high yields under photochemical conditions from readily accessible and suitably substituted phosphonium bromides by an intramolecular photochemical Wittig reaction onto aryloxycarbonyl groups.

5,5′-Dimethyl-3,3′-azoisoxazole as a new heterogeneous azo reagent for esterification of phenols and selective esterification of benzylic alcohols under Mitsunobu conditions

5,5′-Dimethyl-3,3′-azoisoxazole is used as a new efficient heterogeneous azo reagent for the highly selective esterification of primary and secondary benzylic alcohols and phenols with aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids via Mitsunobu protocols. The reaction is highly selective for primary benzylic alcohols versus secondary ones, aliphatic alcohols and also phenols. The isoxazole hydrazine byproduct can be simply isolated by filtration and recycled to its azoisoxazole by oxidation.
