Abstract The Fries rearrangement of 3-chlorophenyl acetate provided the expected 4-chloro-2-hydroxy-acetophenone as the major product and 2,4-diacetyl resorcinol and 2-chloro-4-hydroxy-acetophenone as minor products. 4-Benzyloxy-2-chloroacetophenone was prepared by a Heck reaction… Click to show full abstract
Abstract The Fries rearrangement of 3-chlorophenyl acetate provided the expected 4-chloro-2-hydroxy-acetophenone as the major product and 2,4-diacetyl resorcinol and 2-chloro-4-hydroxy-acetophenone as minor products. 4-Benzyloxy-2-chloroacetophenone was prepared by a Heck reaction and then elaborated to 4-benzyloxy-2-chlorophenacyl azide.
