Photochemical versus aluminium chloride-catalyzed fries rearrangement of aryl hydrogen succinates. synthesis of 2(3H)-furanones

Summary The photochemical and aluminium chloride-catalyzed Fries rearrangement of a series of aryl hydrogen succinates3 a–f to the corresponding 4-oxoacids1 a–f are compared. Both approaches are complementary: the photochemical process is more general and becomes the method of choice for the succinoylation of phenols supporting alkoxy or hydroxy substituents, while the classical rearrangement is superior in the presence of alkyl or halogen substituents. These results are applied to the preparation of the 2(3H)-furanones2 a–f.

Photochemische und Aluminiumchlorid-katalysierte Friessche Umlagerung von Bernsteinsäuremonoarylestern. Synthese von 2(3H)-Furanonen

Zusammenfassung Die photochemische und AlCl₃-katalysierte Friessche Umlagerung einer Reihe von Bernsteinsäuremonoarylestern3 a–f zu den entsprechenden 4-Oxosäuren1 a–f werden verglichen. Beide Methoden ergänzen einander: Der photochemische Prozeß ist breiter anwendbar und wird bei Phenolen mit Alkoxy- oder Hydroxy-Substituenten bevorzugt, während die klassische Umlagerung in Gegenwart von Alkyl- oder Halogen-Substituenten vorteilhafter ist. Diese Ergebnisse werden für die Synthese der 2(3H)-Furanone2 a–f angewendet.

Amberlite XAD-7 resin impregnated with 2-(1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-2yl)-4-nitrophenol for enrichment of metal ions

The Amberlite XAD-7 resin modification was carried out by loading 2-(1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-2yl)-4-nitrophenol (CPDPINP). Subsequently, this new sorbent was applied for the enrichment of metal ions such as Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺ Zn²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions. The effect of various parameters on their sorption and following recoveries was studied in column procedure. The preconcentrated ions were eluted by appropriate eluent and their contents were quantified by FAAS. This method has preconcentration factor of 150 and enrichment factor in the range of 20.8–29.1. At optimum values of all variables, the proposed method has linear calibration graphs in the range of 0.01 up to 0.29 μg mL⁻¹ with detection limit (3SDb/m, n = 15) between 1.6 and 2.6 ng mL⁻¹. This protocol is usable for successful analysis of Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺ Zn²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions in different matrices with reasonable recoveries (>93%) and acceptable relative standard deviation (<4.7%).

Application of the anionic homologous Fries‐rearrangement to the synthesis of 3‐alkylbenzofuran‐2(3H)‐ones

We have developed an effective organometallic‐based procedure allowing the employment of 2‐methylphenols as easily available starting materials in the synthesis of 3‐alkylbenzofuran‐2(3H)‐ones. The first step of this protocol, an anionic homologous Fries‐rearrangement, afforded 2‐(2‐ tert ‐butyldimethylsilyloxyaryl)acetamides, which were selectively metalated and monoalkylated at the benzylic position. Acidic work‐up of crude products afforded the desired heterocycles in satisfactory overall yields. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
