Abstract

Biaryl ethers condense directly with carbonyl groups on diazafluorenones, acenaphthenequinone, and isatins, to give a variety of spirocyclic compounds. The condensation reactions are promoted by the Brønsted superacid, CF3SO3H (triflic acid). This methodology provides a convenient one-pot synthetic route to aromatic spirocycles.
