[3]Dendralene ( 2 ) has been converted into the benz[ a ]anthracene tetraester 13 in a protocol involving diene‐transmissive Diels–Alder addition of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to 2 followed by a sequence of reduction–addition–aromatization reactions. Likewise, the next higher vinylog [4]dendralene ( 19 ) provided the phenanthrene hexaester 21 . An attempt to prepare the double o ‐xylylene intermediate 17 failed.
