As a potential route to 2,3-dihydrodibenzo[b,d]furan-4(1H)-one (3), we have been investigating the one-pot process of condensing 1-bromo-2-iodobenzene (1) with 1,2-cyclohexanedione (2) using Cu(I) catalysis. This poster summarizes our efforts in the area to date.

Copper(I) catalyzed reaction of 1-bromo-2-iodobenzene with 1,2-cyclohexanedione as a potential route to 2,3-dihydrodibenzo[b,d]furan-4(1H)-one
