title: FeCl3 catalyzed Prins-type cyclization for the synthesis of highly substituted indenes: application to the total synthesis of (±)-jungianol and epi-jungianol.
abstract: A novel approach was developed for the synthesis of highly substituted indene derivatives, using an FeCl(3) catalyzed Prins-type cyclization reaction which was further applied in the total synthesis of jungianol and epi-jungianol.
