Benzofuran Systems. Synthesis and Biological Examination of 1-(3-Benzofuranyl)-2-phenylethanones

Novel 1-(3-benzofuranyl)-2-phenylethanones 4a-d have been prepared by acetylation of 2-alkylbenzofurans 2a-c with phenylacetyl chlorides 3a-b. The methoxy derivatives 4b-d have been demethylated to the corresponding phenols 5b-d with pyridinium hydrochloride. An attempt to obtain the derivatives of 4d and 5a iodinated in the phenyl ring has been undertaken. The novel compounds have been characterized by ir and nmr spectra and their biological activity examined.

Photocyclization Reactions. Part 1. Synthesis of Dihydrobenzofuranols Using Photocyclization of 2-Alkoxybenzaldehydes, 2'-Alkoxyacetophenones, 2-Formylphenoxyacetic Acids and 2-Acetylphenoxyacetic Acids

Photocyclization reactions were carried out on 2-alkoxybenzaldehydes 1a-f, 2'-alkoxyacetophenones 2a-h, 2-formylphenoxyacetic acids 1i-l and 2-acetylphenoxyacetic acids 2i-m.Irradiation opf 1a-f and 2a-h in acetonitrile gave the corresponding dihydrobenzofuranols 3, 5 and dihydroisobenzofuranols 4, 6.Using carboxylic acids 1i-l, 2i-m as starting materials, decarboxylation occurred immediately to give the corresponding ethers 1a-d, 2a-e.Further irradiation of the solution afforded dihydrobenzofuranols 3,5 and dihydroisobenzofuranols 4, 6.Substituent effects on photocyclization and reaction pathways are discussed.
