✦ Synopsis
Indeno[ 1,
furan-2,4(3H)-dione derivative pentachloride gave an indanone 5, instead of the expected dihydrofuran 6. The mechanism for the formation of the indanone 5 implies the intermediate acid chloride 7. The formation of 5 instead of 6 is due to facilitation of electrophilic attack of the chlorocar-bony1 group on the aromatic nucleus by the electron-donating effect of the methoxy group. This effect is not in operation in the nonmethoxy analogue, in which prototropic rearrangement followed by elimination of HCI leads to a nonmethoxy dihydrofuran like 6.
