Formation of highly caged compounds through EMels-Alder cycloaddition of 3-bromo-7-(lbromomethyl)tetracyclo[5.3.1.0~(2,6).0~(4,8)]undeca-10(12)-ene-9,ll-dione with itself and with cyclopentadiene

摘要

Diels-Alder reaction of the cage compound 2 with itself, leading to the highly caged compound 3, as well as with cyclopentadiene, leading to compounds 4 and 5, is described.
