Abstract

&fl C CH2Br 2, 9 a (80%) b (80%) ketone precursors, since the competing pathway 2-3-6 predominates for such compounds even at low temperatures. One exception to this case proved to be the mixture of exo/endo esters 28a and 28b, which afforded only the bromomethyl ketones 29a and 29b (each in 80% yield). This result suggests the bridgehead methoxy group in 28 served to stabilize the tetrahedral intermediate 2, either through ...
