The nitrous acid deamination of the amine 13, the copper(II)-induced cleavage of the nitrosourea 19, and the thermolysis of the nitrosoamide 20 were used to generate the diazonium ion 7.In contrast to previous work, performed in the presence of base, the neutral to weakly acidic conditions of the present study afforded substantial fractions (30-40percent) of bicyclohex-exo-6-yl products (15).Small quantities of bicyclohex-endo-6-yl (14), bicyclohex-2-yl (25, 26) and 3-cyclohexen-1-yl (27) derivatives were also detected, the latter arising by a 1,3-hydride shift.These results, unprecedented with higher homologs of 7, suggest a largely "classical" bicyclohex-6-yl cation (21) as the initially formed intermediate.Capture of 21 is thought to compete with disrotatory transformation to the cyclohexenyl cation 12. - Keywords: Bicyclohex-6-yl derivatives/ Diazonium ions/ Electrocyclic reactions/ Nucleophilic displacement
