蒽酮(1)与3,5-二甲氧基苯甲醛(2)在吡啶/哌啶中反应生成10-(3,5-二甲氧基苯甲亚基蒽酮(3); 3经Pd/C催化氢化生成10-(3,5-二甲氧基苄基蒽酮(4); 4与3-甲氧基苄基氯(5)进行相转移催化烷基化反应生成10-(3,5-二甲氧基苄基)-10-(3-甲氧基苄基)蒽酮(6); 6经NaBH4还原生成10-(3,5-二甲氧基苄基)-10-(3-甲氧基苄基)-9(10H)-蒽醇(7); 7在酸催化下发生选择性1,7-脱水反应, 生成高三蝶烯(homotriptycene) (8). 其反应机理可能是7在酸存在下生成正碳离子中间体, 然后选择性地亲电进攻富电荷的3,5-二甲氧基苯基, 而不进攻3-甲氧基苯基.

Anthrone (1) reacted in pyridine/piperidine with 3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (2) to give 10-(3,5-dimethoxybenzylidene)-9-anthrone (3). Catalytic hydrogenation (5% Pd on carbon) of 3 afforded 10-(3,5-dimethoxybenzyl)-9-anthrone (4). 10-(3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl)-10-(3-methoxybenzyl)-9-anthrone (6) was obtained by alkylation of anthrone 4 with 3-methoxybenzyl chloride (5). Subsequent reduction of 6 with NaBH4 gave 10-(3,5-dimethoxybenzyl)-10-(3-methoxybenzyl)-9(10H)-9-anthranol 7. 7 exhibits in the presence of formic acid or p-methylphenyl-sulfonic acid a selective 1,7-elimination of water which leads to homotriptycene (8). It could be assumed that the protonation of the hydroxy group leads to a carbenium ion intermediate which selectively attacks as electrophile the electron-rich benzene ring with 3,5-dimethoxy groups, instead of attacking the benzene ring with 3-methoxy group.

Key words: anthranol, condensation, triptycene, electrophilic substitution
