It was found that lanthanum metal caused the dehalogenation of o-dihalogen substituted arenes and α,α′-dihalogen substituted o-xylenes to generate the corresponding benzynes and o-quinodimethanes. When o-dihalogen substituted arenes were allowed to react with lanthanum metal in the presence of dienes, the Diels-Alder products between benzyne and dienes were formed in moderate to good yields. Similarly, the Diels-Alder adducts of o-quinodimethane with dienophiles were obtained, in the reaction of α,α′-dibromo-o-xylenes with lanthanum metal in the presence of dienophiles.

The rates of methoxide-ion induced protiodeiodination of a number of polychloroiodobenzenes and their derivatives have been measured in dimethyl sulphoxide-methanol (9:1 v/v; 323.2 K).The true reagent under these conditions appears to be the dimethyl sulphoxide anion, and the rates of reaction in some cases appear to approach that expected of a diffusion controlled process.This corresponds to a major decrease in the efficacy of further activating substituents in the aromatic system, altough deactivating groups such as p-OMe still show large effects.Chlorine promotes protiodeiodination in the order of efficiency o-Cl > m-Cl > p-Cl; the trifluoromethyl group activates displacement in the order o-CF3 > p-CF3 > m-CF3, although with much less difference between isomeric sites. o-Nitro-groups promote protiodeiodination whereas the p-nitro-group encourages methoxydeiodination.No evidence of methoxydeiodination was found in attack of the polychloroiodobenzenes, although the rates of methoxydechlorination of the corresponding polychlorobenzenes suggest that in some cases this might occur.Evidence rejecting the possible SRN1 mechanism and supporting nucleophilic attack by a carbanionic species upon iodine is presented.
