Abstract
Abstract: The behavior of a series of cis-bicyclo [6.1. O] nona-2, 4, 6-trienes and of the related trans bicyclic system upon alkali metal (chiefly potassium) reduction in liquid ND3 and NH3 has been studied. Upon two-electron reduction in ND3 at-60 to-78", the cis-fused hydrocarbons underwent conversion to their homoaromatic dianions, which were spectroscopically visible (pmr) in certain instances. In the case of the parent molecule, ...
