Epoxides reactions with benzyne

S. Beltran-Rodil, D. Pena, E. Guitian, Reaction of benzyne with styrene oxide insertion of arynes into a C-O bond of epoxides, Synlett 8 (2007) 1308-1310. 

The decarboxylation of diazotized anthranilic acid carried out by Stiles and Miller49 is also a fragmentation reaction it affords dehydrobenzene (benzyne), which reacts at once as a dienophile with, e.g., furan, giving 1-naphthol by way of an epoxide.
