Abstract: | The reaction of tetracyclone with the cyclo-octatetraene-dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate adduct at . 110° produces, in addition to the 4+2] Π cycloadduct (49%), 1,2,3,8-tetraphenylcyclo-octatraene (11%), together with the diketone (5%). In a similar reaction with the esterified cyclo-octatetraene-maleic anhydride adduct , the major product (82%) is accompanied by the cyclohexa-1,3-diene and the dihydrosemibullvalene derivative . Thermolysis of at . 145° leads to the cyclobutene ., which on catalytic hydrogonation followed by decarbonylation at 180°–190° gives 2,3,4,5-tetraphenylcyclo-octa-1,3,5-triene . Attempted thermal conversion of into a dihydrosemibullvalene failed. |
