Abstract
The titled new pericyclized naphthalene system has been prepared in four steps from 1,8-naphthalenedicarboxylic anhydride in an overall yield of 35–78%. The key step in the synthesis employed a dithioacetal-cyclization reaction of 1,8-bis(mercaptomethyl)naphthalene with carbonyl compounds using boron trifluoride etherate as a catalyst.
