Site-Selective Iron(III) Chloride-Catalyzed Arylation of 4-Aryl-4-methoxy-2,5-cyclohexadienones for the Synthesis of Polyarylated Phenols

The iron(III) chloride-catalyzed Friedel–Crafts arylation of 4-aryl-4-methoxy-2,5-cyclohexadienones, which were easily prepared by the phenyliodine(III) diacetate (PIDA)-mediated oxidation of 4-arylphenols in methanol, proceeded site-selectively to form meta-terphenyl (2,4-diarylphenol) derivatives in good yields. The subsequent PIDA-mediated oxidation and iron(III) chloride-catalyzed Friedel–Crafts arylation of the resulting products gave the corresponding 2,4,6-triarylphenol derivatives. The present method provides useful highly substituted polyarylated compounds. (Figure presented.).

ANODIC OXIDATION STUDIES OF OXYGENATED BIPHENYLS. CONVENIENT SYNTHETIC ROUTES TO CERTAIN FUNCTIONALIZED BIPHENYLS

The anodic oxidation of oxygenated biphenyls produces phenyl-substituted p-quinol ether ketals in good-to-excellent yield.These compounds are useful substrates for preparation of more highly functionalized biphenyls.
