Our objective was to explore access to bicyclic tetrasubstituted olefins by rearrangement of large spirocyclic cations.Such olefins serve as precursors for subsequent photic conversion to domed bicyclic alkenes (betweenanenes).We synthesized the spirocycl

Cyclododecanone (3b) was converted to betweenanene (1b) in three steps via 1-cyclododecylcyclododecene (11b) and cis-bicyclotetracos-1(13)-ene (2b).The key betweenanene precursor 2b is also accesible by acid-catalyzed dehydration of the related C24 spirocyclic alcohol (7b).
