Abstract
The regiochemistry of formylation of several activated naphthalenes an d benzenes with pyrophosphoryl chloride and N, N-disubstituted formami des is governed by steric demands of the formylating species and the s ubstrate, but electronic factors may dominate in some cases. Increasin g the size of the formamide in the formylating reagent is beneficial f or controlling regioselectivity.
