| Abstract | A mild, general, and transition-metal-free protocol for the synthesis of 9,10-dihydrophenanthrenes is reported. The aryne generated by the fluoride-induced,1,2-elimination of 2-(trimethylsilyl)aryl triflates undergoes an efficient cascade reaction initiated by the Diels-Alder reaction with the differently substituted styrenes leading to the formation of 9-aryl-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene derivatives in moderate to good yields. |
