A number of ortho substituted aryl acetylenes, o-CH3XC6H4YCCR (X=O, S, CO2; Y=-, CO), have been observed to undergo facile intramolecular solvomercuration with mercuric acetate in acetic acid to afford the corresponding benzofuran, benzothiophene, isocoumarin, and chromone organomercuric chlorides, after aqueous sodium chloride workup.The aryl acetylenes m-XC6H4YCH2CCR (X=H, Y=O, R=CH3; X=CH3O, Y=CH2, R=n-C3H7) undergo similar cyclizations to yield mercurated 2H-1-benzopyrans and 1,2-dihydronaphthalenes.The mercuration and subsequent carbonylation of o-R1OC6H4CCR2 1=Si(t-Bu)Me2, R2=CH3; R1=CH3, R2=o-C6H4OCH3> has provided a new approach to the coumarin and coumestan ring systems.

On treatment with metallic lithium in the presence of dimethylaminonaphthalene, trialkylsilyl enol ethers of α-phenylseleno ketones were converted into the corresponding α-trialkylsilyl ketones in good yields.
