Synthesis of naphthalene derivatives through inexpensive BF3·Et20-catalyzed annulation reaction of arylacetaldehydes with arylalkynes

An inexpensive BF3·Et20-catalyzed annulation reaction of arylacetaldehydes with arylalkynes has been developed. Various substituted phenylacetaldehydes and phenylacetylenes can undergo this reaction, producing corresponding α-aryl substituted naphthalene derivatives. Use of inexpensive and readily a...

Summary:An inexpensive BF3·Et20-catalyzed annulation reaction of arylacetaldehydes with arylalkynes has been developed. Various substituted phenylacetaldehydes and phenylacetylenes can undergo this reaction, producing corresponding α-aryl substituted naphthalene derivatives. Use of inexpensive and readily available BF3·Et20 catalyst constitutes the most attractive advantage of this transformation.
