A novel highly strained hydrocarbon, the tetracyclic compound (1), has been synthesized from o‐divinylbenzene. The structure of (1) is secured by spectroscopic data. Compound (1) provides the first opportunity of studying the interaction between the spiropentane unit and the benzene ring.
Ein neuartiger, hochgespannter Kohlenwasserstoff, der Tetracyclus (1), wurde aus o‐Divinylbenzol synthetisiert. Die Struktur von (1) ist durch die spektralen Daten gesichert. An (1) kann erstmals die Wechselwirkung der Spiropentan‐Einheit mit dem Benzolring untersucht werden.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
