“…For example, tetraphenylallene affords 1,1,3-triphenylindene (Eq 57, R, R', R" = Ph) when treated with hydrogen halides or acetic acid (592), and naphthindenes (352) and fluorenylindenes (192) may be obtained in the same way. The structure of the indene so formed has not always been established (see, e.g., ref 619).…”
