52. A spirodithiophenefluorene derivative in which the 7 H -cyclopenta[1,2- b:4,3- b ′]dithiophene isomeric structure can be recognized has been synthesized by Friedel-Crafts dehydration cyclization in a mixture of HCl and AcOH: Xie, L.-H.; Hou, X.-Y.; Hua, Y.-R.; Huang, Y.-Q.; Zhao, B.-M.; Liu, F.; Peng, B.; Wei, W.; Huang, W.

58. The studied alkene mixture was obtained from the attempt to perform the cyclization with HCl in AcOH (Table 1, entry 6).
59. Intermolecular reaction (oligomer formation) was observed as a minor side reaction by ESI-MS (less pronounced upon dilution).
