Abstract

Thermal addition reactions of 2-substituted tropones and 8, 8-dicyanoheptafulvene with benzocyclobutadiene proceeded stereoselectively to produce endo-[2π+4π]-type cyclo adducts, where the troponoid compounds acted as 4π components. Molecular orbital calculations were employed to explain the selectivity.
