26. The competing [2 + 2] cycloaddition and homo Diels-Alder cycloaddition of tetrachlorobenzene and parent benzyne also show no significant pressure dependence.

44. The isocoumarinophane 12 has also been obtained by Vögtle in an attempt to decarbonylate 6 at 620°C over quartz wool. Presumably the compound is formed by enolization of the ketone and subsequent addition of the OH function to the neighboring cyano group. From the resulting cyclic imidoester, 12 could be formed by hydrolysis during work-up: F. Vögtle, private communication, November 1992.
