Abstract

1,3-Diaryl propargyl alcohols undergo smooth intramolecular Friedel-Crafts cyclization with triethylsilane in the presence of 10 mol % iodine 3-aryl-1H-indene derivatives in good yields in short reaction times. This is the first example on the synthesis of substituted indenes from 1,3-diaryl propargyl alcohols. The use of inexpensive and readily available molecular iodine makes this method quite simple, more convenient, and practical.
