AlBr3-Mediated Tandem Cyclization–Carboxylation of Allenylbenzenes with CO2 in the Presence of Pyridines
2017
Indene-2-carboxylic acids are prepared from allenylbenzenes and CO2 by an AlBr3-mediated tandem reaction consisting of intramolecular Friedel–Crafts alkylation of allenylbenzenes and subsequent carbonation of the resulting indenylaluminum species. The reaction requires 2,6-di-tert-butylpyridine or 2,6-diiodopyridine to neutralize an acidic by-product without deactivating the Lewis acid.
