In this paper, we describe the silver triflate/p-toluenesulfonic acid co-catalysed synthesis of seventeen isocoumarins and two thieno[2,3-c]pyran-7-ones starting from 2-alkynylbenzoates and 3-alkynylthiophene-2-carboxylates, respectively. The reaction proceeds with absolute regioselectivity under mild reaction conditions and low catalyst loading, to afford the desired products in good to excellent yields. A conceivable reaction mechanism is proposed and supported by isotope-exchange tests, 1H NMR studies and ad hoc experiments.
Nitro-facilitated '5-exo-dig' intramolecular cyclisation of 2-(2-nitrophenylethynyl)benzoic acids: A new total synthesis of indeno[1,2-b]indoles

2-(2′-Nitrophenylethynyl)benzoic acid esters, obtained by Sonagashira coupling of o-bromobenzoates to 2-(2′-nitrophenyl)acetylenes, were converted into indeno[1,2-b]indoles by a two-step sequence, through the corresponding 2-nitrophenyl-1,3-indandiones.
