Abstract
The C-formylation of 1,3-dimethyl-2(3H)-benzimidazolone and 4-methyl-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one was performed using 1,1-dichloromethyl methyl ether at the Friedel-Crafts reaction conditions. The formylation of 3-methyl-2(3H)-benzoxa- and -thiazolone at the 6-position was carried out by modified Duff's method with hexamethylenetetramine in trifluoroacetic acid.
Keywords: Formylation; Benzoheterocycles.
