Abstract

Abstract Previous assignments on mechanistic grounds of the stereochemistry of trans-6-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4,5-benzindane have been confirmed by degradation of a precursor to the known trans-2-carboxycyclopentane acetic acid. 1,6-dioxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4,5-benzindane has been shown to suffer autoöxidation in alkaline solution to yield 6-hydroxy-1-oxo-4,5-benzindane.
