33. For example, cycloaddition of benzyne i (derived from iodotriflate ii by treatment with n-BuLi) with 4-(2-furyl)anisole (iii) gave the undesired regioisomer iv as the only product. We also examined the cycloaddition of benzyne i with THIQ substituted furan v. However, no cycloaddition products were observed, probably because of the hindered nature of v. equation presented

35. Modifications included changing the number of equivalents of dialkylamide anion, the order and rate of addition, the number of equivalents of dibromide precursor, the solvent, the structure of the dialkylamide base, and the temperature of benzyne generation and reaction. n-Butyllithium was used for the preliminary deprotonation of β,β-dimethyl-N,N-diethylacrylamide (in an attempt to reduce the amount of isopropylcyclohexylamine and the amount of amine-trapped product 19). However, none of these modifications resulted in significant changes in the yield or ratio of products.

53. The acetate analogue of 49 (xiii) was once prepared by coupling the naphthyl triflate xi with the THIQ boronic acid xii. The triflate was derived from the naphthalene-1,4-diol i, which in turn could be prepared by the indicated Diels-Alder reactions. This strategy was inferior to the THIQ-halide/naphthalene-metal routes we adopted (Chart 1) because the synthesis of x was not efficient and the generation of boronic acid xii made the sequence less convergent with respect to the more complex THIQ unit. equation presented
