Studies on Gibberellin Synthesis: The Total Synthesis of Gibberellic Acid from Hydrofluorenone Intermediates

Reductive alkylation of 2,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid with benzyl iodide 15 followed by cyclodehydration furnished fluorenone 8 which was converted into gibbane 10 by means of an acid-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization procedure based on diazo ketone 21.Ben

Reductive Alkylation of 2,5-Dimethoxybenzoic Acid: A Direct Synthesis of Dihydrofluoren-2-ones

A two-operation procedure is described for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydrofluoren-2(1H)-ones from "reductive alkylation" of 2,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid with benzyl halides, followed by cyclodehydration of the adducts, with concomitant decarboxylation.
