A new method for the synthesis of substituted naphthalenes and phenanthrenes was discussed. A formal synthesis of tanshinone I was also studied. Natural products that contain a naphthalene or phenanthrene nucleus often exhibit biological activity, which makes them attractive targets in organic synthesis. The results showed that the reaction can be proceed through at least two different pathways.

Irradiation of 2-allylated acylbenzenes in DMF in the presence of potassium tert-butoxice constitutes a novel synthesis of substituted naphthalenes, including arylnaphthalenes. Typical examples including the conversions (1) → (2), (8) → (11) and (15) → (16).
