Microwave Irradiation Effect on Intermolecular and Intramolecular Friedel-Crafts Acylation Reaction

摘要

The effect of microwave irradiation on the intermolecular andintramolecular Friedel-Craftsacylation of aromatic compounds was investigated. Microwave irradiation had noeffect on the intermolecular reaction but had an accelerating effect on the intramolecularreaction. This enhanced intramolecular reactivity that was attributed to the highprobability of close proximity between the reaction sites.
