摘要

The synthesis of 2, 6-dimethylene [3.3. 2] propellane (4) in three steps and 12% overall yield from allene dimer 1 is reported. The key reaction is the formation of 4 by transannular photochemical ring closure of 1, 2, 5, 6-tetramethylenecyclooctane (3). A chemical separation of 4 from isomers that are carried through the synthesis is described, which makes the purification of the intermediates (1-3) unnecessary. Compound 4 has been ...
