Fig. 2: Substrate expansion by varying substitution (R1 and R2) at 4πe-system (a, b, g).

(a) Reactions were carried out at rt with 0.1 mmol of substrate in 1.0 mL CHCl3. (b) Isolated yields. (c) Reaction with 0.05 equiv In(SbF). (d) The ratio determined by 1H-NMR. (e) 2n:R1 = Me, R2 = OMe. (f) Reaction at 50 °C. (g) Unless noted, dr > 20:1.
