Abstract
A novel intramolecular annulation of 1-(2-alkynylphenoxy)propan-2-ones catalyzed by iron, an economical and environmentally-benign transition metal, has been developed; this new atom-economical route includes dual C-H functionalizations to construct the naphthalen-1-ol or anthracen-1-ol skeletons.
