| Abstract: | A mixture of 1-methyl- and 2-methyl-1,4,4a,8a,-tetrahydro-endo-1,4-methano-naphthalene-5,8-diones ( 2 & 3 ) was chemically transformed into separable methyl substituted tricyclo5.2.1.02,6]decadienones 7 , 8 & 9 . The structure of 8 & 9 were elucidated via Cope rearrangement of their corresponding allylic alcohols ( 10 & 11 ) to furnish 12 & 13 respectively. |
