Spiro compounds : An iodine monochloride‐induced intramolecular cyclization of 1‐[4′‐methoxy(1,1′‐biphenyl)2‐yl]alkynones has been developed (see scheme). An electrophilic iodocyclization selectively takes place at the ipso position (versus the ortho electrophilic aromatic substitution) to afford 4′ H ‐spiro(cyclohexa[2,5]diene‐1,1′‐naphthalene)‐4,4′‐diones, a new group of spiroconjugated compounds.
