Abstract

ABSTRACT Heteropolyacids such as molybdophosphoric and tungstophosphoric acids, supported over silica, readily induce cyclodimerisation reactions of styrenes and stilbenes affording a mixture of indane and/or tetraline derivatives with remarkably high efficiency and in reduced reaction time.
