Abstract
Attempted generation of cyclopropa[a]naphthalene (3b) and cyclopropa[l]phenanthrene (3c) by intramolecular 1,3-elimination from the aryllithium derivatives (2b) and (2c), respectively, fails. Instead products from organolithium disproportionation reactions are observed.https://doi.org/10.1071/CH9771769
