A simple approach to the synthesis of fluoren-9-ones
Ramana,Potnis
, p. 1751 - 1760 (1995)
Cyclohexene-1-Carboxylic acid (I) undergoes reaction with various aromatic substrates (2a-i) in presence of polyphosphoric acid (PPA) at 100°C to give cis-1,2,3,4,4a,9a-hexahydrofluoren-9-ones (3a-i) in good yield. Dehydrogenation of (3a-i) with selenium powder afforded corresponding fluoren-9-ones (4a-i) in high yield.
Exploitation of cyclopropane ring-cleavage reactions for the rapid assembly of tetracyclic frameworks related to gibberellins
Banwell, Martin G.,Phillis, Andrew T.,Willis, Anthony C.
, p. 5341 - 5344 (2007/10/03)
The readily available hexahydrofluorene 5 has been elaborated over six steps, including three involving cyclopropane ring-cleavage reactions, into compound 12 which incorporates the carbocyclic framework associated with gibberellins.
