Flow-vacuum pyrolysis of polycyclic compounds. 12: Pyrolysis of 10,11-dihydro-5-methylene-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene and of 10,11-dihydro-5-methyl-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene

Flow-vacuum pyrolyses of the title hydrocarbons afford anthracene and 9-methylanthracene as main products. The reaction mechanism suggested by Trahanovsky 2 for pyrolysis of dibenzocyclooctene- and dibenzocycloheptene derivatives is confirmed. For secondary products, parallel radicalic routes are suggested.
