Abstract

Abstract The Diels-Alder reaction between cyclopropene and substituted cyclopentadienes has been used to prepare several chloro-and chloromethoxy-substituted endo-tricyclo [3, 2, 1, 0 2, 4] oct-6-enes. In the presence of base, the reaction of 1, 2, 3, 4- tetrachlorocyclopentadiene with cyclopropene yielded the expected adduct together with adducts arising from the isomeric 1, 2, 3, 5-and 1, 2, 4, 5-tetrachlorocyclo-pentadienes. ...
