RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Straightforward Synthesis of Dihydrobenzo[a]fluorenes through Au(I)-Catalyzed Formal [3 + 3] Cycloadditions A1 García García, Patricia A1 Rashid, Muhammad A. A1 Sanjuán Cortázar, Ana María A1 Fernández Rodríguez, Manuel A. A1 Sanz Díez, Roberto K1 Química orgánica K1 Chemistry, Organic AB Dihydrobenzo[a]fluorene derivatives have been prepared by a formal intramolecular [3 + 3] cycloaddition of o-alkynylstyrenes bearing a secondary alkyl group at the β-position of the styrene moiety. The process, catalyzed by a cationic gold(I) complex, involves a 1,2-hydride migration as the key step. 6,11-Dihydro-5H-benzo[a]fluorenes could be obtained from the initially generated 6,6a-dihydro-5H-benzo[a]fluorenes by subsequent heating of the reaction mixture under gold(I) or Brønsted acid catalysis or directly by conducting the reactions at high temperature PB American Chemical Society SN 1523-7060 YR 2012 FD 2012-09 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10259/3866 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10259/3866 LA eng NO MICINN and FEDER (CTQ2010-15358 and CTQ2009-09949/BQU) and Junta de Castilla y Leon (BU021A09 and GR-172) for financial support.
