Abstract

For an investigation of reactions leading to tricyclic cycloheptatriene compounds, 2-[p-(4'- methoxypheny1)-ethyl]-phenyldiazomethane, 2-(y-phenylpropy1)-phenyldiazomethane, 2-[y- (4'-methoxyphenyl)-propyl]-3, 4, 5-trimethoxyphenyldiazo-methane and 2-[y-(3', 4'- dimethoxypheny1)-propyl]-3, 4, 5-trimethoxyphenyldiazomethane have been prepared and subjected to thermal and/or photochemical decomposition. From the first two diazo ...
