The synthesis of tetra-ortho-substituted biaryl naphthalenes, including examples bearing multiple ortho-isopropyl groups, has been developed via a catalytic rearrangement process.

(Figure Presented) A new methodology for the preparation of substituted naphthalenes starting from readily available indenones, organometal reagents, and trimethylsilyldiazomethane via a catalytic rearrangement process is described. Hindered biaryl naphthalenes, including triortho-substituted biaryls, can be accessed through our method. Our results are consistent with a mechanism involving a benzobenzvalene intermediate.
