Bicyclohexan-2-one (1) was converted into the 3-diazo derivative (4) wich was ringcontracted thermally to give a variety of amides and esters of bicyclopentane-2-carboxylic acid as exo- and endo-stereoisomers.Conversion of the acids into the corresponding methyl ketones and then Baeyer-Villiger reaction has led to endo- and exo-bicyclopentan-2-yl acetates wich differed markedly in solvolytic reactivity.
