Abstract

There has been great interest in the synthesis of polycyclic compounds using o- quinodimethane intermediates, and various methods for the generation of o- quinodimethane intermediates such as metal'or anion2 induced or thermal or photochemical elimination3 reactions of the corresponding precursors have been reported. By using these methodologies4 or thermolysis reactions of benzocyclobutene derivatives, s numerous ...
