Dehydrohalogenation of adducts of dichlorocarbene with cyclooctene and its peripherally cyclopropanated analogs

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF02494639

Dehydrohalogenation of three isomeric adducts of dichlotocarbene with bicyclo[6.1.0]non-1-, -2-, and -4-enes under the action of potassium tert-butoxide in DMSO was studied. In the course of dehydrohalogenation of the substrates under study, different isomerization processes, which were accompanied by repeated migrations of multiple bonds that formed, occurred depending on the structure of dichlorides, while no skeletal rearrangements were observed.
