Title: An Efficient Synthesis of Benzofluorenes Via α-Alkoxycarbonyldiarylmethyl Cations
Abstract: Rearrangements of α-alkoxycarbonyldiarylmethyl cations lead to 9-fluorenecarboxylic esters. Decarboxylation of these esters generates the fluorene derivatives 9a-f. The precursors to the cations are the α-hydroxyesters 6a-g.This conversion constitutes a facile synthesis of benzofluorenes.
