Abstract

The addition of methanethiol to 1, 4, 7, 7-tetrachloronorborn-2-ene affords 1, 4, 7, 7- tetrachloronorborn-2-endo-yl methyl sulphide, which is formed by endo attack of methylthio- radicals. The addition of bromotrichloromethane gives 3-endo-bromo-1, 4, 7, 7-tetrachloro-2- exo-trichloromethylnorbornane derived from exo attack by trichloromethyl radicals. Similar products derived from exo attack by trichloromethyl radicals are formed in the addition of ...
