Synthesis of paddlanes having a bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane core. The consequences of olefin metathesis involving unsaturated 1,3-dicarboxylate esters of varying chain length
摘要:
Described herein is the synthesis of an homologous series of bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane-1,3-dicarboxylate esters featuring omega -alkenols of differing chain length (n=4-8) For the purpose of evaluating their ability to undergo ring-closing metathesis/paddlane formation in the presence of Grubbs' catalyst.
