A systematic investigation of long-range couplings in the 1H NMR spectra of dimeric indanones

During the synthesis of methyl substituted indanones by intramolecular cyclization of 3-phenyl-propionic acids, dimerization led to by-products which can be considered as dimeric indanones. The proton NMR spectra of these compounds exhibit pronounced scalar couplings over up to seven bonds. A series of structures of the above type were investigated, and their NMR spectroscopic behaviour is discussed.

Intramolecular Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction of 3-arylpropionic acids was efficiently catalyzed by Tb(OTf)3 at 250°C to give 1-indanones. Even deactivated 3-arylpropionic acids with halogen atoms on the aromatic ring can be cyclized in moderation to good yields.
