Acetylation of trimethylsilyl bicyclo(n,1,0)alkanes was studied using the CH3COCl/AlCl3 complex.The results showed that both larger cycle size (n = 3, 4 or 6) and stereochemistry of the substrate (SiMe3 group in endo or exo position) played a prominent role in the orientation of the reaction : depending upon the starting products, either bicyclic or ethylenic and/or chloro ketones were formed.The results can be rationalized in terms of steric hindrance considerations.They allowed us to propose a new convenient synthesis of acetyl bicyclo(n,1,0)alkanes and also of 1-acetyl 2-cyclohexene.
