An efficient route for the synthesis of substituted naphthalenes, phenanthrenes and other polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons has been developed. The methodology involves 1,2- (or sequential 1,4- and 1,2-) addition of either benzyl, 1-(naphthylmethyl) or 2-(naphthylmethyl) magnesium halides to α-oxoketenedithioacetals or β-oxodithioacetals followed by borontrifluoride etherate catalyzed cycloaromatization
