Electroreduction of 2- and 3-Chlorodibenzofuran in Deuterated Methanol

The cathodic reduction of dibenzofuran (2), 2-chlorodibenzofuran (4), and 3-chlorodibenzofuran (1) in deuterated methanol is investigated. The Birch-type reduction product 1,4-dibenzofuran (3) is formed from 1 via 2, whereas 2-chloro-1,4-dihydrodibenzofuran (5) is obtained as by-product besides 3 from 4 as starting compound. Deuterium is only incorporated into the reduction products if CH3OD or CD3OD but not if CD3OH are used. This observation is strongly indicative of a polar mechanism involving protonation rather than a radical mechanism with hydrogen atom abstraction to be operative.
