Thermolysis of tricyclo2,7>hept-4-en-3-one constitutes an unusual bond reorganisation reaction in which the alkenic carbon atoms are responsible for the construction of the cyclobutene ring in the product, bicyclohepta-3,6-dien-2-one.

4-Acetoxytricyclo2,7>hept-4-en-3-one (3), a valence isomer of 2-acetoxytropone, was synthesized.Upon heating in pyridine at 150 deg C, 3 rearranged into 1-acetoxybicyclohepta-3,6-dien-2-one (9); the mechanism of which was examined by means of deuterium labeling experiments.
