1-Hydroxy-5-methoxy-8-phenacylnaphthalene was obtained by the acylation of 1-benzoyloxy-5-methoxynaphthalene with phenacyl chloride.When boiled in acetic acid, it closes the five-membered naphthofuran ring.Depending on the conditions and on the type of base, its esters are converted into derivatives of 1-hydroxy-8-naphthoic acid or 2-phenyl-2-acylmethylenenaphthofuran.
