Cyclopropyl ethers of p-quinols were prepared by reaction of 3”-methylenedispiro [1, 3- dioxolone-2, 1'-[2, 5]-cyclohexadiene-4', 1”(3” H)-isobenzofuran] and the associated ketone with ethyl diazoacetate/rhodium (II) acetate and diethylzinc/methylene iodide, respectively, and their thermal and photochemical rearrangements were studied. One major process at 180-200 OC is cleavage of the carbon-oxygen bond at the spiro center of the quinol to ...
