for the synthesis of 9,10-phenanthraquinone
derivatives has been successfully developed involving a copper(0)/Selectfluor
system-promoted oxidative carbon–carbon bond cleavage/annulation
of o-aryl chalcones. A variety of substituted 9,10-phenanthraquinones
were synthesized in moderate to good yields under mild reaction conditions.
