“…[29,30] Towards tetrahydrofluorenes [30] similar and related synthetic routes have been explored. [12,31] Recently, we described the simple synthesis of several allyl-substituted indenes by Zn-mediated allylation of 1-and 2-indanones in aqueous media.…”

The preparation of new 1,2‐unsymmetrically substituted fused‐ring indenes from dialkenyl precursors by utilization of the ruthenium‐catalyzed ring‐closing metathesis is described. By analogous strategy, 1,3‐substituted fused‐ring indenes with medium‐ring sizes have also been synthesized. For bis(allylsilyl)indene, the formation of a 1,3‐fused ringappears to be prevented by ring strain and a 1,1‐spiro compound is obtained instead due to rearrangement of the substituents. The rearrangement is enabled by the [1,5]‐silatropic shifts operating in silyl‐substituted cyclopentadienyl compounds. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)

“…These versatile reactions can be tuned by varying temperatures, metals, − additives, proton sources, or quenching agents. They have also been combined with other reactions in tandem sequences. − A cathodic Birch reduction has been reported for a limited class of substrates . The hydroxide ion has been used as an electron source for the photochemically activated Birch reduction of a naphthalene derivative .…”
