Abstract
The preparation of substituted 4- and 6-thiaindanones 1 (thiophene isosteres of indanone) via intramolecular acylation of β-(2- and 3-thienyl)propanoic acids is described. The Wolff-Kishner and sodium borohydride reductions provided the corresponding thiaindan and thiaindanol (thiophene isosteres of indan and in-danol), respectively.
