Abstract
A new access to indanones was discovered through a one-step nickel or iron-mediated transposition of 2-hydroxyisobenzofurans. Starting from the corresponding silylenol ethers, a new one-pot tandem isomerisation-Mukaiyama aldol process was also developed. These versatile strategies will be useful for the preparation of various types of indanones and indenones.
