In this study, some aryl (3-methyl-benzofuran-2-yl) ketoximes and their ethers and esters were synthesised. The structure elucidation of the compounds was performed by IR, $^1H-NMR$, MASS spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Antifungal activities of the compounds were examined and moderate activity was obtained.

A facile and effective method has been developed for the synthesis of a novel series of benzofuran derivatives via N-acylation, O-alkylation and intramolecular condensation reactions, starting from readily available substituted o-hydroxy aryl ketone, and chloroacetyl arylamides. This metal-free transition process is characterized by mild reaction conditions, atom economy, short reaction time and a high yield with a decreased amount of by-products.

Simple and practical synthesis of natural benzofuran derivative eupomatenoid-6 via Horner-Emmons type condensation as the key step is described. The umpolung property of aldehyde derivative, ${\alpha}$-aminophosphonate was efficiently employed in this reaction. ${\alpha}$-Aminophosphonate of anisaldehyde subjected to Horner-Emmons type condensation with 5-bromo-2-methoxybenzaldehyde to yield the deoxybenzoin, which was further methylated and then underwent tandem demethylation-cyclodehydration to afford the benzofuran scaffold in excellent yield. Finally Suzuki coupling with propenyl boronic acid afforded eupomatenoid-6 with an overall yield of 56.8%.

An efficient and practical synthesis of natural moracins, which have diverse range of biological properties including anticancer, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities, has been achieved using $Pd(OAc)_2/P(^tBu)_3-HBF_4$ as a Sonogashira coupling reagent which solved the unreactive problems in case of higher electron density of haloaryl compounds in the reaction. Lowering electron density of halophenol with acetylation and changing Sonogashira coupling reagent from $PdCl_2(PPh_3)_2$ to $Pd(OAc)_2/P(^tBu)_3-HBF_4$ smoothly produce the benzofuran structures in the syntheses of moracins M, N and S. The electron deficient halobenzaldehyde, however, easily forms the benzofuran using original Sonogashira conditions, and utilized for the first synthesis of moracin Y.

The reaction of the sodium salts of 4-methoxy and 4, 7-dimethoxy 6-hydroxy benzofuran-5-carboxylic acid with ethyl chloroformate yields the corresponding dicarbethoxy derivatives. The N-substituted amides were obtained by treating the latter compounds with amines. The corresponding hydrazides were synthesized by the reaction of hydrazine hydrate on the dicarbethoxy derivatives which spontaneously cyclized to 5-substituted-2, 3- dihydro-1, 3, 4, -oxadiazol-2-one. Also the reaction with phenyl hydrazine has been studied. The dicarbethoxy derivatives and N-substituted amides were tested against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria in vitro. Most of the compounds posses moderate or slight activity against Gram positive bacteria.

An efficient method for the synthesis of 1-aminophthalans has been developed. The intramolecular oxa-Mannich reaction of 1,3-dihydro-2-benzofuran-1-ols with p-toluenesulfonylamine in the presence of Cs₂CO₃ as a base, without using any catalyst, provided the desired 1-aminophthalans in moderate to good yields.

Volatile Organic Compounds(VOCs) emitted form electronicSince toluene, xylene, cyclohexanone, and benzofuran will bring on the deleterious smell and the health risk, eventhough very small amount of these areexposed to human body, quantitative analysis was achieved by GC-MS system. As a result of these analyses, except PCB(CEM-1) of which is one of the electronic parts, the left of electronic parts represented, imme-diately form 30 minutes to 1 hour after heating, the trends that toluene, xylene, cyclohexanone and phenol were consecuticely emitted very high. and toluene, xylene, phenol, cyclohexanone, and benzofuran from most of the electronic parts were emitted very frequently within the measuring period. Finally, Trans of electronic parts showed the highest concentration of emission, and xylene(550~2482 ${\mu}g/m^2$) was the most noticeably emitting compound of VOCs.
