The azaallyl cation-mediated cycloaddition with spirohepta-4,6-diene by the procedure of Schmid provides the tricyclic cycloadducts of general type 3.The keto bridge of the cycloadducts 17c, 21, and 22 has been cleaved by PhI(OAc)2-I2 (Suarez cleavage), which involves β-fragmentation of an alkoxy radical, to furnish iodo lactones 19, 32, and 30a,b, respectively.Subsequent oxidation of these alkyl iodides has been investigated to develop a new synthetic route for bridgehead olefins (i.e., 33) of medium-sized carbocycles.
