Resumen:
The photostimulated reaction of o-dihalobenzenes 2 with 2-naphthoxide ions 1-0 gave the substitution
product on carbon 1 of the naphthyl moiety with retention of halogen (I, Br, and C1) 3 as well as
the ring closure product benzo[blnaphtho[1,2-dlfuran (4), with product 3 being an intermediate in
the formation of 4. The products obtained in the photostimulated reaction of 2-naphthalenethiolate
ions 1-S with 2 depend on the halogens. When both nucleofugal groups are iodine, only the ring
closure product benzo[bInaphtho[l,2-d1 thiophene (10) is obtained. With o-bromoiodobenzene, the
photostimulated reaction gave 10 and the substitution product on sulfur with retention of bromine,
while with o-chloroiodobenzene the only observed product was the substitution product on sulfur
with retention of chlorine. The photostimulated reaction of 2 with 2-naphthaleneselenolate ions
1-Se gave the same amount of cyclized product benzo[blnaphtho[l,2-dlselenophene (14) and the
substitution product on selenium without retention of halogen 15, although in an overall low yield.
It is suggested that all these reactions occur by the SRN~ mechanism. Theoretical studies support
the different behavior found with the nucleophiles derived from the 2-naphthyl system.
