Abstract

A re-examination of the methylenation reaction of 1-hydroxy-2-mercapto-, 1, 2-dihydroxy- and 1, 2-dimercapto-substituted benzenes by bromochloromethane with cesium carbonate shows that these substrates give mixtures of five-and ten-membered benzocondensed heterocyclic compounds and in some cases even dibenzodioxines.
