Inter- and intramolecular cycloaddition reactions of ethenetricarboxylates with styrenes and α-halostyrenes have been investigated. The reactions of ethenetricarboxylates with styrenes or α-bromostyrenes in the presence of SnCl4 or SnBr4 stereoselectively gave 2,4-cis-substituted cyclobutanes. The intramolecular cycloaddition reactions of a series of styrene-functionalized ethenetricarboxylate amides
