Abstract

Hydrindanone 1 is an important product because of the widespread occurrence of its derivatives in natural products as vitamins D (1). Our synthetic strategy entails the attachment of a suitable equivalent of the acetaldehyde enolate (acetaldehyde d2 reagents (2)) tG a 1, 3-diacetyl-l-methylcyclopentene 2 followed by subsequent cyclisation.-
