STEREOSELECTIVE ALKYLATION OF THE LITHIUM DI-ENOLATE OF BIS-2,3-CARBOMETHOXY BICYCLOHEPT-5-ENE. A CONVENIENT SYNTHESIS OF MONO- AND DISUBSTITUTED FUMARATE ESTERS.

The diesters formed by a Diels-Alder reaction between cyclopentadiene and methyle maleate or fumarate give the same lithium dienolate which is stereoselectively mono- or dialkylated.The products obtained are good precursors for substituted fumarate esters.
