Abstract

The reaction of silylaryl triflates, CsF, and ortho-heteroatom-substituted benzoates affords a general and efficient way to prepare biologically interesting xanthones, thioxanthones, and acridones. This chemistry presumably proceeds by a tandem intermolecular nucleophilic coupling of the benzoate with an aryne and a subsequent intramolecular electrophilic cyclization.
