Abstract
BF<sub>3</sub>·OEt<sub>2</sub>-mediated one-pot formal (4 + 2) and
(5 + 2) stereocontrolled cycloaddition of 4-alkenols <b>3</b> and <b>4</b> with veratrol affords the respective substituted
tetralins <b>5</b> and benzosuberans <b>6</b> in good
yields. The cascade protocol combines a facile double Friedel–Crafts
benzannulation of 4-alkenols <b>3</b> and <b>4</b> (having
two electrophilic sites) and veratrol (<b>7a</b>) (having two
nucleophilic sites). A plausible mechanism was studied and proposed
