Abstract

A novel and very short synthesis of the useful title hydrocarbon 2 is presented. Its key step is based on a Diels-Alder reaction of isobenzofuran 4. The lithium salt of 2 gives a remarkably stable valence isomer of anthracene 1 in a reaction analogous to the indene → benzobenzvalene transformation.
