Abstract

In 1975 Dötz reported the first example of the formation of a highly substituted benzenoid compound from the reaction of a phenylchromium carbene complex and diphenylacetylene. 1 Over the subsequent years the efficiency and scope of this Dötz benzannulation process have been extensively investigated. 2 Traditionally the reaction has been carried out under thermal conditions in a donor solvent. However, use of such techniques can often lead to prolonged reaction times and ...
