Abstract
The Diels-Alder reaction of spirobicyclic cyclopentadiene
derivatives, prepared by reaction of cyclopentadienyllithium and
epichlorohydrin, with maleic anhydride gave a simple access to spiro
tricyclic polyoxygenated compounds of synthetic interest. The solvolytic
behavior of 1-(tosyloxymethyl)spiro[2.4]hepta-4,6-diene,
a 5-spirocyclopentadiene, shows that the ionization of the tosylate
was unlikely.
Key words
tricyclic compounds - Diels-Alder reaction - spiro compounds - stereoselective synthesis

4 For example, for syn -isomers 2a and 2c , the
chemical shifts of carbon atoms of anhydrides are different, and
for anti -isomers 3a and 3c the chemical shifts are identical.
