A directed C-H bond activation approach to the synthesis of indans, tetralins, dihydrofurans, dihydroindoles, and other polycyclic aromatic compounds is presented. Cyclization of aromatic ketimines and aldimines containing alkenyl groups tethered at the meta position relative to the imine directing group has been achieved using (PPh3)3RhCl (Wilkinson's catalyst). The cyclization of a range of aromatic ketimines and aldimines provides bi- and tricyclic ring systems with good regioselectivity. Different ring sizes and substitution patterns can be accessed through the coupling of monosubstituted, 1,1- or 1,2-disubstituted, and trisubstituted alkenes bearing both electron-rich and electron-deficient functionality.

The title compounds were prepared as follows: tert.-butyl-indane (10) was formylated to give a 72:28 mixture of the aldehydes 23a and 23b which were submitted to a Knoevenagel-Doebner condensation to afford the cinnamonic acids 24. From the mixture, the p

The regioselectivity of reaction of tricarbonyl(1,1-dimethylindane)chromium with selected electrophiles and nucleophiles has been shown to be influenced by the preferred conformation of the tricarbonylchromium group.Nucleophiles preferentially react at carbon atoms eclipsed by a chromium-carbonyl bond and electrophiles at carbon atoms in staggered positions.When similar reactions were attempted with some chelated arenechromium dicarbonyl phosphorus compounds only low yields of substitution products were obtained.
