苯基雙環庚二烯及其衍生物經由一新的途徑合成。此方法避免了使用性質極活潑而產率低的炔苯為反應中間體,能夠由具一般程度的化學研究人員有效的操作。
Benzonorbornen-7-ol 12 and the brosyIate 13 was synthesized without going through benzync as the reactive intermediate. The key step involved the formation of a novel 1, 4-dioxene 9 during the aromatization of the cyclohexadienyl moiety of the triene 8.
