Thermal addition reactions of cycloheptatriene with several aromatic p-quinones gave the Diels-Alder adducts as minor products; the most characteristic feature was the formation of the vic-ditropylation products.The mechanism of their formation was clarified to be a sequential ene-reaction and dehydrogenation by means of chemical conversion from the isolated intermediates.Several new other additions, e.g., successive Diels-Alder reactions, were also noted.
