The ease of introduction of a C=C bond exocyclic to a norbornane, norbornene and nortricyclane ring has been studied by chemical equilibration of the isomeric methyl enol ethers of 2-acetylnorbornane, 2-acetylnorbornene and 3-acetylnortricyclane.The process in question is seen to become increasingly more difficult in the sequence norbornane-1 less favored, and that to a nortricyclane ring ca. 13 kJ mol-1 less favored than the introduction of a C=C bond exocyclic to a norbornane ring.Thermodynamic data for other isomerization reactions are also given.
