Graphical Abstract
  • . Surprisingly, acylindene 22 turned out to be the product of this reaction, rather than the expected naphthol (Scheme 16) [52]. However, when a bulky group was substituted on the triple bond, this gold-catalyzed transformation was completely suppressed. Moreover, none of the desired product could be obtained

Graphical Abstract
  • our initial study, reaction of 4-chlorobenzaldehyde, β-naphthol and dimedone in water was considered as a standard model reaction (Scheme 1). During this investigation, efforts were mainly focused on a variety of surfactants. In this regard, different cationic surfactants such as
  • surfactant was sufficient for catalyzing the reaction effectively. In accordance with the literature [15], a plausible mechanistic path for the formation of tetrahydrobenzo[a]xanthen-11-ones can be outlined as follows: nucleophilic addition of 2-naphthol to the aldehyde to give an intermediate ortho-quinone
  • aryl aldehydes were treated with β-naphthol and dimedone under the optimized reaction conditions and all these substrates were found to be equally amenable to these conditions. Interestingly, some heteroaryl aldehydes also underwent the reaction smoothly. Representative results are summarized in Table

  • cis and trans isomers, kcis/ktrans = 1800 in aqueous acetonitrile. This mirrors the behaviour of the acid-catalysed dehydration of cis- and trans-naphthalene-1,2-dihydrodiols to form 2-naphthol, for which kcis/ktrans = 440, but contrasts with that for solvolysis of tetrahydronaphthalene substrates, 1
  • –H hyperconjugation is particularly pronounced for a β-hydroxynaphthalenium ion intermediate because the stability of its no-bond resonance structure reflects the presence of an aromatic naphthol structure.

  • case of the more slowly reacting trans isomer there was a competing hydrolysis of the trichloroacetate ester group to give trans-2-methoxy-1,2-dihydro-1-naphthol (6-trans), as shown in Scheme 2. The fraction of hydrolysis was determined by HPLC and was found to increase with increasing water content
