Abstract
Under the conditions of the Fischer reaction, O-phenylhydroxylamine forms mixtures of isomeric (with respect to substitution in the 2 and 3 positions) benzofurans with methyl ketones. Only 3-substituted 2-methylbenzofurans were isolated when methyl ketones with a “strongly activated” methylene group were used as the carbonyl component.
