Selective Synthesis of Fused Polycyclic Compounds from 1-Phen-
yl-2-propyn-1-ol with r-Methylstyrene. A typical experimental
procedure for the reaction of 1-phenyl-2-propyn-1-ol (5) with R-meth-
ylstyrene catalyzed by [Cp*RuCl(SMe)2Cp*Ru(dCdCdCHPh)]BF4
(1e) and PtCl2 is described below. In a 50 mL flask were placed 1e
(12.0 mg, 0.015 mmol) and PtCl2 (8.0 mg, 0.03 mmol) under N2.
Anhydrous ClCH2CH2Cl (27 mL) was added, and then the mixture
was magnetically stirred at room temperature. After the addition of 5
(39.7 mg, 0.30 mmol) and R-methylstyrene (709.1 mg, 6.00 mmol),
the reaction mixture was heated at 60 °C for 24 h. The solvent was
removed under reduced pressure by an aspirator, and then the residue
was purified by TLC (SiO2) with n-hexane as an eluent to give 3,5-
diphenylbicyclo[3,1,0]hex-2-ene (7) as a white solid (39.7 mg, 0.171

X-ray Crystallographic Studies of 4n. Colorless crystals of syn-
4n suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by recrystallization from
CH2Cl2-n-hexane. A single crystal was sealed in a Pyrex glass capillary
under N2 atm and was used for data collection. All measurements were
made on a Rigaku RAXIS imaging plate area detector with graphite
monochromated Mo KR radiation. Details of crystal and data collection
parameters are summarized in Table 4. The positions of non-hydrogen
atoms were determined by direct methods (SIR88) and subsequent
Fourier syntheses (DIRDIF99).
