Abstract

The cycloadducts farmed from arenes and tetrachloroand tetrafluorobenzyne have been shown to undergo specific addition-fragmentation reactions. These sequences are both simple syntheses of arenes with unusual substitution patterns and a convenient alternative to the other methods currently available for assaying the isotopic distribution in [14C]- labelled benzene derivatives.
