Abstract

AbstractCyclizations of stilbenecarboxylic acids to the corresponding isocoumarin derivatives using diselenide or disulfide reagents have been developed. By employing bis(triflouroacetoxy)iodobenzene as oxidant for the 6‐endo‐trig cyclizations a variety of dihydroisocoumarins have been prepared in good yields. This method is capable of forming isocoumarins and dihydroisocoumarin derivatives by a cyclization–elimination route.
