Abstract

Prompted by a desire to prepare a bisannulated homotropilidene whose localized cis- divinylcyclopropane structure might be sufficiently destabilized to force adoption of neutral homoaromatic character, a study of the reducibility of difunctional syn-dimethanoperhydro-s- hydrindacenes was undertaken. Thus, 4-acetyl-s-hydrindacene was converted to the quinone 5 by two different series of reactions. The first consisted of a sequence involving ...
