Rearrangement Reactions of Heterocycles, VII. Ketenoid Rearrangement of 2‐Pyrones to Naphthalenes 4‐Hydroxy‐2‐pyrones 3, obtained by the condensation reaction of trichlorophenyl malonates 1 with the ketones 2 at 240°C, are rearranged at 260°C via ketenes 6 to yield 1,3‐dihydroxynaphthalenes 5. The latter are readily oxidized to naphthoquinones 4 by air. A side product in the rearrangement of 3b is triphenylphloroglucinol ( 7 ).
