Oxidative intramolecular coupling of the aryl rings of various stilbenes for direct construction of the phenanthrene ring system is promoted efficiently by manganese dioxide-trifluoroacetic acid at room temperature in excellent yields. This approach is also applied to the intermolecular biaryl coupling of 2-naphthols, 2-naphthalenethiol, 2-naphthylamine, a phenol ether and a phenol under very mild conditions. An electron-transfer mechanism is proposed in which manganese dioxide acts as a two-electron oxidant.
