Bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs) are valuable substrates in the “strain release” synthesis of polysubstituted four-membered ring systems, with applications including bioconjugation agents. The introduction of substituents onto the BCB bridges is challenging d

This study has examined the stereochemistry of the decomposition at 900-1000 K in a single-pulse shock tube of 1-vinyl-2,3-cis-dideuteriocyclobutane to ethylenes and buta-1,3-dienes. The deuterated ethylenes formed during the decomposition, CHD=CH2, (E)-CHD=CHD, and (Z)-CHD=CHD, were quantified via two independent techniques, FTIR and IR absorption spectroscopy using a tunable diode laser spectrometer. The results of both analyses indicated that equal amounts of (E)-CHD=CHD and (Z)-CHD=CHD were formed from the cis-labeled reactant. In an earlier shock tube study of the decomposition at 1000-1200 K of two deuterium-labeled cyclohexenes to ethylenes plus buta-1,3-dienes, a pathway via a vinylcyclobutane intermediate was implicated in a significant fraction of the decomposition events; the measured ratios of (E)-CHD=CHD to (Z)-CHD=CHD in that study were consistent with a complex mechanistic model in which the stereochemistry of deuterium labels in the cyclohexene reactant was lost in ethylene products formed via vinylcyclobutane. The present results provide additional support for that model.
