Abstract

Thermal isomerizations of vinylcyclopropanes have been studied in great depth with regard to concerted vs. stepwise mechanisms.',* Recent interest has focused on the thermal epimerization and rearrangements of bicyclo [3.1. 0] hex-2-enes which can occur via exocyclic (C1-Cs) and endocyclic (Cl-C5) cyclopropyl hond cleavage., We investigated the thermolysis of 6-endo-(carbomethoxy) bicyclo [3.1. 01 hex-2-ene (1) in order to determine ...
