Abstract

Abstract: Nitration of spiro [cyclopentane-l, 9'-fluoren]-2-one with acetyl nitrate predominantly gave the 4-nitro derivative. In the reduction of substituted spiro [cyclopentane-1, 9'-fluoren]-2- ones, the anti alcohols were favored in all cases. In the epoxidation of substituted spiro [ ...
