Indenones Friedel-Crafts reaction

Treatment of saturated azlactones with aromatic compounds under Friedel-Crafts conditions gives acylamino ketones in high yield (equation 46). 4-Benzyl-2-methyl-5(4H)-oxazolone undergoes an intramolecular reaction to yield an acetamidoindanone (equation 47). Friedel-Crafts reactions of 4-(arylmethylene)-5(4H)-oxazolones are complicated by the presence of an additional electrophilic centre (cf. 201) and may follow three courses. The unsaturated azlactone (189) adds benzene under the influence of aluminum chloride to form the saturated azlactone (207) in inert solvents (189) undergoes an intramolecular acylation to yield a mixture of the indenone (208) and the isoquinoline (209 Scheme 20).
