Notes:
New results concerning the mechanism of retentive substitution at the three membered ring of propellanesThe reaction of the endo- and exo-bromide 1a and 1b with acetate ion in aprotic polar solvents carried out at high concentrations of 1 furnishes the dimeric dehydro-halogenation products 3a and 3b, the structures of which are determined by x-ray crystallography (Fig. 1). The formation of 3a and 3b as well as of the products 2 of a retentive substitution process can be explained by assuming that the strained benzo-tropones 4 are intermediates. Their high barrier to inversion is confirmed by π-SCF-molecular mechanics calculations.
