Using triphenylmethylium tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate as a convenient Br?nsted acid precatalyst, β-(α,α-dimethylbenzyl)styrenes are shown to cyclize efficiently to afford a variety of new indanes that possess a benzylic quaternary center. The geminal dimethyl-containing quaternary center is proposed to be necessary to arm the substrate for cyclization through steric biasing.

, p. 3069 - 3083 (2007/10/02)
The di-?-methane rearrangement of a series of meta and para substituted arylvinylmethane reactants was investigated with the aim of determiningthe patterns of reactivity in systems in which initial excitation is localized in the aryl moiety.Thus the photo
