Abstract
Polychlorinated dibenzofurans have been prepared in one step by the condensations of o-chloranil with arenes in triflic acid. A mechanism is proposed involving formation of a monoprotonated quinone (carboxonium ion), electrophilic attack at the arene, and cyclization of a carbocation intermediate. The chemistry is further examined by spectroscopic and theoretical studies.
