Results (I) Ozonolysis in Aprotic Solvents. The ozonolysis of 1-methyl-3-phenylindene (IC) in hexane, carbon tetrachloride, methylene chloride, acetone, and acetonitrile at 20" C gave, in each case, a mixture of exo ozonide 2c and the endo isomer 3c in isolated yields of around 60%, the (1)(a) Osaka University.(b) Heriot-Watt University.(2) Miura, M.; Nojima, M.; Kusabayashi, S.; McCullough, KJ J.
