Molecular design by cycloaddition reactions. Part 32. Transannular cyclization of tricyclo[4.2.2.02,5]deca-3,7-diene derivatives by oxypalladation
Abstract
Reactions of dimethyl tricyclo[4.2.2.02,5]deca-3,7-diene-9,10-dicarboxylate derivatives with palladium(II) acetate, chloride, and nitrate have been investigated. The products were identified by spectral means and chemical transformations. Mechanisms for their formation are discussed.
