Abstract
[5-Acyl-2-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl]iodonium triflates were prepared for the generation of benzynes bearing ketone function. Treatment of the iodonium triflates with Bu4NF in CH2Cl2 in the presence of furan at room temperature gave 6-acyl-1,4-epoxy-1,4-dihydronaphthalenes in high yields. The mild conditions and the tolerance of the ketone function on benzyne generation are attributable to the advantage of hypervalent iodine compounds.
