The reaction of 2-phenylpropan-2-ol mediated by BiBr 3 can, through control of the temperature, yield selectively either 4-methyl-2,4-diphenyl-2-pentene or 1,1,3-trimethyl-3-phenylindane. A reaction mechanism that proceeds via 1-methylstyrene is disclosed. ... The reaction of 2-phenylpropan-2-ol ...
