The reactivity of enol ether radical cations was investigated in anodic four-membered carbon ring formations, advancing the mechanistic understanding of these reactions. The mono-ring-containing aromatic cations were reduced through inter- or intramolecular electron transfer to give mono- or bis-ring-containing compounds, respectively. Small structural changes in the hydrocarbon linkers tethering two aromatic rings exerted a powerful effect on the efficiency of such electron transfer events.
