A divergent approach to generate either 1‐hydroxymethylindenes (which could then be converted to benzofulvenes through a dehydration reaction) or naphthalenes by the rearrangement of cycloprop[2,3]inden‐1‐ols is reported. The effect of the cyclopropyl ring substitution pattern on ring‐opening/expansion rearrangements of the substrates was systemically studied.
