Abstract

Synthesis of Methyl 6,6‐Dimethylfulvene‐2‐carboxylate and Dimethyl 6,6‐Dimethylfulvene‐2,3‐dicarboxylate as well as their Reaction to 2,3,5,6‐Substituted NorbornadienesFulvenes 5 and 6 were synthesized by Diels‐Alder reaction of 6,6‐dimethylfulvene with methyl prop‐2‐ynoate and dimethyl but‐2‐ynedioate, catalytic reduction of the unsubstituted norbornadiene double bond, and a subsequent retro Diels‐Alder reaction under flash vacuum pyrolysis conditions, 5 and 6 are used as the diene component in synthesizing 2,5‐, 2,3,5‐, and 2,3,5,6‐substituted norbornadienes 7–9 by Diels‐Alder reaction with electron‐deficient alkynes.
