One-Step Regioselective Synthesis of Benzofurans from Phenols and <i>α</i>-Haloketones
Reported here is the direct synthesis of naphthofurans and benzofurans from readily available phenols and <i>α</i>-haloketones promoted by titanium tetrachloride which combines Friedel−Crafts-like alkylation and intramolecular cyclodehydration into one step. This simpl...
