Lewis Acid Promoted C-C and Copper-Catalyzed C-O Bond Formation: Synthesis of Neoflavans. -A facile four-step strategy for the synthesis of neoflavons is developed. It involves a FeCl 3 promoted Friedel-Crafts alkylation and an intramolecular Cu-catalyzed C-O bond formation as the key steps. -(SUCHAND, B.; KRISHNA, J.; MRITUNJOY, K.; SATYANARAYANA*, G.; RSC Adv. 4 (2014) 27, 13941-13945, http://dx.doi.org/10.1039/c4ra00048j ; Dep.
