Metal-free [3 + 3] benzannulation of 1-indanylidene-malononitrile with Morita–Baylis–Hillman carbonates: direct access to strong fluorescent functionalized fluorene and fluorenone derivatives
2020
An efficient [3 + 3] benzannulation of Morita–Baylis–Hillman carbonates with 1-indanylidenemalononitrile was achieved under metal-free reaction conditions selectively delivering a wide range of functional multi-substituted fluorene or fluorenone compounds in high yields respectively (up to 86% yield). Moreover, experiments and quantum chemical calculations were also performed to study the mechanism of the transformation.
