Abstract
Various 4-(3-halogenatedphenyl)- and 4-(3,5-dihalogenatedphenyl)-4-oxobutyric acids were synthesized by the nuclear halogenation of the corresponding 4-aryl-4-oxobutyric acids in the presence of an excess of aluminum chloride. In most of these reactions, consecutive succinoylation and halogenation of the aromatic compounds were carried out in one pot operation.
