Resumen:
The surprisingly facile conversion (isomerization) of 2-formyl-arylketones into 3-substituted phthalides, as observed for the marine naturalproduct pestalone and its per-O-methylated derivative, was investigated using a series of simple 2-acylbenzaldehydes as substrates. Thetransformation generally proceeds smoothly in DMSO, either in a Cannizarro-Tishchenko-type reaction under nucleophile catalysis (NaCN) orunder photochemical conditions (DMSO, 350 nm).
