2-bromo-1,6-dienes are catalytically cyclised to a mixture of the corresponding 3,4-bis(methylene)cyclopentane and 5-methylenecyclohex-3-ene.Wilkinson's catalyst shows good selectivity for the 5-membered ring product whilst palladium catalysts, in general, show little selectivity.Addition of tetraethylammonium salts, especially the chloride, allow the palladium catalysed reactions to be carried out at 30 deg C in good yield and with high selectivity for the 5-membered ring. 2-Bromo-1,7-dienes are cyclised regiospecifically to 6-membered rings by the same catalysts although some double bond isomerisation also occurs.The mechanism of the catalytic cyclisations is discussed.The 3,4-bis(methylene) cyclopentanes undergo facile Diels-Alder reactions.

Treatment of allene with copper(II) chloride in the presence of palladium(II) chloride as catalyst (1percent) produced 2,3-bis(chloromethyl)butadiene in good yield.Greater than 10 g of this material was produced in 24 h. 1-Phenylallene behaved in a simila
