Abstract

2-Naphthol underwent Friedel-Crafts reaction with N-benzyloxycarbonylamino sulfones in the presence of InCl3 at room temperature to form the corresponding sulfonyl derivatives in high yields. The products were subsequently reacted with nucleophiles such as allyltributyltin and anisole to replace the sulfonyl group.
