Abstract

Many methods have been developed for generating benzyne. Convenient and reliable precursors extensively studied so far involve benzenediazonium-2-carboxylate and o-dihalobenzenes such as 1,2-bromofluorobenzene and 1,2-dibromobenzene. Recently, in addition to the above precursors, o-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl triflate has been put into frequent use for benzyne reactions, in which benzyne is efficiently generated under mild conditions using fluoride ion. Furthermore, o-(trimethylsilyl)phenyliodonium triflate has been developed as a more efficient benzyne precursor. This mini-review focusses on recent progress in benzyne chemistry from the viewpoint of organic synthesis. The methods for generating benzynes are classified by the conditions into four categories: basic conditions using strong bases, mild conditions using fluoride ion, thermolysis, and oxidation.
