Starting from bromo/iodobenzaldehyde derivatives, the corresponding (Z)- and (E)-(2-stilbenyl)methanols could be prepared in 2-5 steps via Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (Sonogashira and Heck reactions) followed by aryllithium/aryl Grignard addition. For the (E)-stilbenes, subsequent acid-mediated cyclization using p-TsOH immobilized on silica (PTS-Si) at low temperatures furnished the 2,3-trans-1-indanols with complete stereocontrol at the C2-C3. Further oxidization of the alcohol provided the indanones, which are structurally related to the natural product paucifloral F. At higher temperatures, 1,2- and 2,3-disubstituted indenes could be selectively prepared in good to excellent yields. On the other hand, the (Z)-stilbenes, under similar conditions (PTS-Si), did not give the indanols; only the 1,2-disubstituted indenes could be obtained. To gain further insights into the stereochemistry at C2-C3 for the (Z)-stilbenes, hydride or azide was employed as a nucleophile; the corresponding indane products were obtained with the cis stereochemistry at the C2-C3. Thus, the (Z)- or (E)-olefin geometry of the substrate directed the stereoselective indanyl cyclization to furnish the cis or trans at the C2-C3 ring junction, respectively, while reaction conditions controlled the selectivity of the product types.

A CF3 group attached to an alkene functionality was activated by a zero-valent niobium catalyst to generate niobium alkenylcarbenoid species. The niobium carbenoid species then underwent insertion to an internal aromatic C-H σ bond to give inde

Two 2,3-diphenylindene and -indenone systems, with potential fluorescent and photofluorogenic properties, were prepared and studied as ligands for the estrogen receptor. The indene systems were prepared by Friedel-Crafts cyclization of appropriate α-benzy
