KBr pellets or dispersed in mineral oil. The H and
13C NMR spectra were measured on a JEOL FX 90Q
instrument at 90 and 22.5 MHz, respectively, using
CDCl3 as solvent and tetramethylsilane as reference.
The mass spectra (electron impact, 70 eV) were ob-
tained on a Finnigan MAT-112S GC–MS system, ion
source temperature 220°C. The elemental composi-
tions were determined on a Carlo Erba 1106 analyzer.
Reactions of norbornenes Ia–XIIa with vinyl
acetate in the presence of rhodium catalyst. A 17-ml
stainless steel high-pressure microreactor was charged
under argon with 0.1 mmol of Rh(PPh3)3Cl in 3 ml of
methylene chloride or chloroform. The reactor was
hermetically sealed and heated for 2–3 h at 200°C.
After cooling, the reactor was opened, 10 mmol of
compound Ia–XIIa and 12 mmol (in the reactions with
Ia–VIIa) or 24 mmol (in the reactions with VIIIa–
XIIa) of vinyl acetate were added under argon. The
reactor was hermetically sealed, and the mixture was
heated under continuous stirring for 2–5 h at 80–100°C
(depending on the substrate structure). The reactor was
then cooled to room temperature and opened, the mix-
ture was filtered through a layer of Al2O3, the sorbent
was additionally washed with hexane–diethyl ether
(1:1), the solvent was distilled off under reduced pres-
sure, and the residue was distilled under reduced pres-
sure or separated by column chromatography on Al2O3.
