Abstract
An efficient synthesis of phenalenone derivatives is achieved by rhodium(II )-catalyzed reactions of 2-diazo-1H-1,3-phenalenedione with a variety of su bstrates in moderate yields. This method also provides a rapid route to bio logically interesting polycycles and heterocycles. (C) 2000 Elsevier Scienc e Ltd. All rights reserved.
