Synthesis of some new dihalophenyl-and dihalobenzylisocoumarins and their (dl) 3,4-dihydroderivatives
3-Dihalophenyl- and dihalobenzylisocoumarins (3a-c) were synthesized by condensation of homophthalic acid (1) with dihalobenzoyl- and dihalophenylacetyl chlorides (2a-c), respectively. The alkaline hydrolysis of these isocoumarins (2a-c) afforded keto-acids (4a-c). (dl)-3-(Dihalophenyl)- and (dl)-3-(dihalobenzyl)- 3,4-dihydroisocoumarins (6a-c) were obtained by reduction of keto-acids (4a-c) to racemic hydroxy-acids (5a-c) followed by cyclodehydration using acetic anhydride.
