The preparation of 8-fluoro-t-butylmetacyclophanes (5) are described.Dithiametacyclophane (3) and metacyclophane bis(sulphones) (4) were obtained as a mixture of transoid and cisoid conformers, but metacyclophanes (5) were exclusively obtained as the transoid conformer after pyrolysis of the sulphones (4).AlCl3-MeNO2-Catalyzed trans-t-butylation of 8-fluoro-16-methyl-5,13-di-t-butylmetacyclophane (5a) in benzene under a variety of conditions faild to give 8-fluoro-16-methylmetacyclophane (32) but, instead, the tetrahydropyrenes (33) and/or (34) were obtained depending upon the conditions used.Internally substituted metacyclophanes were isomerized to the strainless metacyclophanes and these were then oxidized to the tetrahydropyrene (33).

The treatment of metacyclophanes with aluminum chloride gave a variety of hydropyrenes as the results of dehydrogenation, cycloisomerization, and disproportionation reactions.With ethylaluminum dichloride, however, a highly selective reaction occured to give trans-trans-1,2,3,3a,4,5,9,10,10a,10b-decahydropyrene.Revised structures were presented for cis-cis- and trans-trans-decahydropyrenes based on 13C NMR and X-ray crystallographic analyses.
