Notes:
The thermal reactions of endo- and exo-5-Y bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-enes (NYBO and XYBO) where Y = methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl have been studied in the gas phase between 567 and 695 K. For both isomers they are parallel first-order retro-Diels-Alder reactions with elimination of ethene (E) and monosubstituted ethene (YE).The observed Arrhenius parameters are used to discuss the mechanism and to estimate the heats of formation and the entropies of NYBO and XYBO. Group values are proposed for estimation of these thermochemical data for compounds of the same type by means of the methods of Benson.
