1-R-Tricyclo[4.1.0.02,7]heptanes (R = H, Me, Ph) take up methane- and halomethanesulfonyl thiocyanates XCH2SO2SCN (X = H, Cl, Br) at the central C1-C7 bond in benzene at 20°C with high anti-selectivity to give bicyclo[3.1.1]heptane derivatives with the 7-endo-oriented sulfonyl group and the thiocyanato group in the geminal position with respect to the R substituent. The syn-adducts lose HSCN molecule by the action of potassium tert-butoxide in THF at 0°C or on heating in boiling aqueous dioxane containing NaOH with formation of 1-(X-methylsulfonyl) tricyclo[4.1.0.02,7]heptanes. Under analogous conditions the anti-adducts (X = Me) are converted into 1,2-bis(7-syn-methylsulfonyl-6-endo-R- bicyclo[3.1.1]hept-6-exo-yl)disulfanes. The anti-adduct derived from unsubstituted tricyclo[4.1.0.02,7]heptane and MeSO2SCN reacted with methyllithium or phenylmagnesium bromide to produce 7-anti-methyl(phenyl)sulfanyl-6-endo-methylsulfonylbicyclo- [3.1.1]heptanes which were also obtained by photochemical addition of MeSO2SMe(or Ph) to tricyclo- [4.1.0.02,7]heptane. Geometric parameters of radical intermediates in the sulfonylation of 1-R-tricyclo- [4.1.0.02,7] heptanes were optimized ab initio using 6-31G basis set. Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 2012.
