Abstract
Bismuth(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate tetrahydrate is found to efficiently catalyze the cyclotrimerization of acetophenones into 1,3,5-triarylbenzenes in good yields.
Key words
bismuth(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate - catalysis - ketones - Lewis acids - 1,3,5-triarylbenzenes

References and Notes
To the best of our knowledge, there are only two successful reports4,7c on the use of this type of compound in the cyclotrimerization process.
13The reaction was very slow in refluxing toluene (12 h, 17%).
14Cyclotrimerization of 2-methylacetophenone by the Wirth method [dry HCl(excess), (EtO)3CH (1.2 equiv), EtOH, r.t., 24 h]4 and the Elmorsy method [SiCl4 (1.0 equiv), EtOH, Δ, 24 h]7c gave the product in 26% and 32% yields, respectively.
15No desired product was obtained by Nafion-H-catalyzed cyclotrimerization of 2,5-dimethylacetophenone.¹0b
