Abstract
Syringol 2 (R=H) reacted with chlorine dioxide to give the dione 7 and its benzilic acid rearrangement product 8a as the major products. Oth er products were the dimethoxybenzoquinones 3a and 3b, 3-chlorosyringo l 4b, chlorocyclopropenone 5, 2-furoic acid 6a and the dichloromethyle nefuranones 10a and 10b. Two samples of effluent from chlorine dioxide bleaching contained the dione 7, while one sample contained the furan one 10a, and one contained the isomer 10b.
