The reaction of ninhydrin with 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene in the presence of H2SO4 or AlCl3 afforded 2-monoaryl and 2,2-diaryl-1,3-indanedione derivatives as the major products. With 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene as the arene nucleophile, either a reduction product or an indenoindanone derivative was obtained depending upon the catalyst employed in the reaction.
