Abstract

We describe the use of bismuth (III) triflate as an efficient and environmentally friendly catalyst for the Nazarov reaction of aryl vinyl ketones, leading to the synthesis of 3-aryl-2-carboethoxy-1-indanones and 3-aryl-1-indanones. By changing the temperature and reaction time, it was possible to modulate the reactivity, allowing the synthesis of two different products in good to excellent yields (3-aryl-2-carboethoxy-1-indanones and 3-aryl-2-carbethoxy-1-indanones). The reaction does not need additives and is insensitive to both air and moisture. The preliminary biological evaluation of some indanones show a promissory profile against some human cancer line cells.
