A New Synthetic Way to the Tetracyclic Skeleton of Cyclohepta ( def )fluorene The synthesis of 2‐Methyl‐4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10‐hexahydrocyclohepta ( def )fluorene 2 is described starting with the reduction of the ketone 3 by a (1:1)‐mixture of LiAlH 4 /AlCl 3 to the hydrocarbon 4 . After metallation with butyllithium 4 was allowed to react with bromoacetic acid to yield 5 . The cyclization of this compound was performed with p ‐toluenesulfonic acid to give the tetracyclic ketone 6 which was converted to the tetracyclic hydrocarbon 2 by reduction with LiAlH 4 /AlCl 3 .
