Abstract

Synthetic sequences leading to derivatives of t. he “one-winged”(pentacycloundecane) and “wingless”(tetracyclodecane) congeners of the bird-cage hydrocarbon and to representatives of the 1, 3'-bishomocubane (pentacyclodecane) system are described. The chlorinated methanonaphthalenes 2, 8, and 11, prepared by stereoselective Diels-Alder condensation of appropriate precursors, were photochemically cyclized to the onewinged ...
