Abstract

The products of the thermal decomposition of the title compounds were investigated. In the case of the cycloheptenecarboxaldehyde and the cyclopentenylacetaldehyde derivatives intramolecular carbene addition to the double bond took place to a minor extent, with formation of tricyclo [5.1. 0.04~~] octane(11) and nortricyclene (VII), respectively. No intramolecular carbene-addition product could be detected in the decomposition product ...
