A. facile and general three-step synthetic route towards unsymmetrical 9-arylxanthenes was developed. The reaction sequence involves nucleophilic substitution of commercially available 2-fluorobenzaldehydes with arenoxides, Grignard reaction of the resulting 2-arenoxybenzaldehydes with arylmagnesium bromides, followed by FeCl3-catalyzed intramolecular diarylmethylation of the resulting carbinols, This strategy was extended to access symmetrical as well as unsymmetrical 9-arylthioxanthenes.
