Synthesis of 5-(2-methoxy-1-naphthyl)- and 5-[2-(methoxymethyl)-1-naphthyl]-11H-benzo[b]fluorene as 2,2'-disubstituted 1,1'-binaphthyls via benzannulated enyne–allenes

Abstract: Summary5-(2-Methoxy-1-naphthyl)- and 5-[2-(methoxymethyl)-1-naphthyl]-11H-benzo[b]fluorene were synthesized by treatment of the corresponding benzannulated enediynes with potassium tert-butoxide in refluxing toluene to give benzannulated enyne–allenes for the subsequent Schmittel cascade cyclization reactions. The structures of these two 5-(1-naphthyl)-11H-benzo[b]fluorenes could be regarded as 2,2'-disubstituted 1,1'-binaphthyls with the newly constructed benzofluorenyl group serving as a naphthyl moiety.

“…Over many years, dehydro‐Diels‐Alder reactions have received ample attention from the scientific community . Among many variants, the tridehydro‐Diels‐Alder reactions of enyne‐allenes and enyne‐carbodiimides have been of major concern to us due to their interesting mechanistic facets. A close analogue with a comparable degree of unsaturation is the didehydro‐Diels‐Alder (DDDA) reaction of enyne‐ketoenes.…”

“…148) with potassium tert-butoxide in refluxing toluene. 163 A 1,3-prototropic rearrangement was responsible for the in situ formation of enyneallene 149 which in turn underwent a Schmittel cyclization to generate biradical 150. An intramolecular radical-radical coupling finally afforded the corresponding benzo[b]fluorene derivative 152 upon hydrogen shift occurring in 151.…”
