•Carbonylation of perfluorinated 1,1- and 1,2-dialkyl- and alkylphenylbenzocyclobutenes in the system CO–SbF5.•Formation of indan-2-one derivatives in the reaction of 1,2-disubstituted benzocyclobutenes with CO–SbF5 at 50 °C.•Formation of isochromene derivatives at 70 °C.•The influence of a temperature on the reaction route.
Interaction of perfluorinated 1,2-dialkylbenzocyclobutenes with CO–SbF5 at room temperature and perfluoro-1-methyl-2-phenylbenzocyclobutene at 50 °C gives fluoroindan-2-one derivatives. When reaction temperature is raised to 70 °C, polyfluorinated isochromene derivatives are formed in both cases. Interaction of perfluoro-1-ethyl-1-phenylbenzocyclobutene with CO–SbF5 at 70 °C gives, after treatment of the reaction mixture with H2O, perfluoro-3-ethyl-3-phenylindan-1,2-dione.
