Abstract

Under Sc (OTf) 3 catalysis, benzylidene Meldrum's acids bearing a tethered p- methoxyphenethyl group were observed to undergo a [1, 5]-hydride shift/cyclization at room temperature, representing a mild Csp3–H bond functionalization. The resulting spiro Meldrum's acid intermediates then underwent intramolecular Friedel–Crafts acylation, completing the one-pot, domino reaction. The reported protocol generates the 6-6-5-6 ...
