3-Methylbenzyne generated from two pairs of isomeric precursors, namely, 2-amino-3- methylbenzoic acid (1)-2-amino-6-methylbenzoic acid (2) and 2-fluoro-3- methylbromobenzene (3)-6-fluoro-2-methylbromobenzene (4), has been reacted with 2- methylfuran (5), 2-tert-butylfuran (6), 2-(1, 3-dioxolan-2-yl) furan (7), and 2- carbomethoxyfuran (8). The proportions of isomeric adducts produced were the same (&2 ...
