The anodic oxidation of 4-(2'-alkenylphenyl)phenols in acetonitrile/methanol affords spirodienones arising from cyclization of the olefinic side-chain to the 4-position of the phenol and reaction of the resulting benzylic cation with methanol.The efficiency of this carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction is dependent upon the olefinic substituents.
