Abstract
A highly efficient catalyst-free cascade reaction of air-stable isochromenylium tetrafluoroborates and bifunctional styrenes containing a 1,3-diketone moiety has been developed, affording the corresponding single diastereomeric ocatahydrophenanthrene derivatives (21 examples, up to 86% yield). A cascade process of [4 + 2]-cyclization and subsequent intramolecular nucleophilic addition is proposed to generate the three new C-C bonds diastereoselectively in the reactions.
