Microwave-assisted efficient synthesis of 2-hydroxydeoxybenzoins from the alkali degradation of readily prepared 3-aryl-4-.hydroxycoumarins in water

This paper describes an operationally simple, green and efficient approach for the synthesis of 2-hydroxydeoxybenzoins bearing diverse substituents from the microwave-assisted alkali degradation of 3-aryl- 4-hydroxycoumarins in water. The latter compounds

An improved synthesis of hydroxy aryl ketones by fries rearrangement with methanesulfonic acid/methanesulfonic anhydride

Methanesulfonic acid treated with methanesulfonic anhydride effectively mediates the Fries rearrangement of aryl esters to give hydroxy aryl ketones with high yields. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.

Alumina in Methanesulfonic Acid (AMA) as a New Efficient Reagent for Direct Acylation of Phenol Derivatives and Fries Rearrangement. A Convenient Synthesis of o-Hydroxyarylketones

Alumina in methanesulfonic acid (AMA) is used to prepare o-hydroxyaryl ketones by acylation of phenol and naphthol derivatives with carboxylic acids and the Fries rearrangement of phenolic esters. Mechanistic studies show that the acylation reaction in AMA occurred through an esterification followed by a Fries rearrangement of the phenolic ester by an intermolecular mechanism.
