β¦ Synopsis
pyrolysis of g-substituted benzylidene chlorides is shown to be a usefu2 route to l-ehtoro-benzocyclobutene, anthacene or benzofurans; evidence is given for a carbene intermediate in the pyrolysis of omethoxybenzyZidene chloride.

## Abstract Flash vacuum pyrolysis of 1,2βdialkoxybenzenes 1aβc leads to the liberation of alkanes from the interacting side chains. A rearrangement of the skeleton yields the __o__βhydroxy carbonyl compounds 2 and 4. The generation of phenol 3 can be rationalized by a decarbonylation. The latter r
