Synthesis of substituted naphthalenes from α-tetralones generated by a xanthate radical addition–cyclisation sequence

Abstract

A simple, highly efficient and cheap synthesis of substituted naphthalenes is reported. These aromatic compounds can be easily prepared in acidic or basic conditions from α-tetralones, obtained by a xanthate-mediated addition–cyclisation sequence.
