Abstract

Abstract: A number of ortho substituted aryl acetylenes, o-CH3XC6H4YC= CR (X= 0, S, CO,; Y=-, CO), have been observed to undergo facile intramolecular solvomercuration with mercuric acetate in acetic acid to afford the corresponding benzofuran, benzothiophene, isocoumarin, and chromone organomercuric chlorides, after aqueous sodium chloride workup. The aryl acetylenes m-XC6H4YCH2C== CR (X= H, Y= 0, R= CH,; X= CH30, Y= ...
