alkylidenecyclobutenes shows a strong regioselectivity—in some cases regiospecificity—for the exocyclic double bond. Depending on the reagent, the endocyclic double bond will only undergo reaction upon the addition of a second equivalent of reagent. In the case of the first three reagents, this exocyclic regioselectivity is rationalized by invoking the formation of the more stabilized carbocation intermediate

环丁烯中添加过酸,
溴,TCNE和单线态氧显示出对环外双键的强烈区域选择性(在某些情况下为区域特异性)。取决于试剂,内环双键将仅在添加第二当量的试剂时发生反应。在前三种试剂的情况下,通过调用更稳定的碳正离子中间体或过渡态的形成来合理化这种环外区域选择性。关于1 O 2,其中极性机制很少,我们将此环外区域选择性归因于不适当的排列,因此缺乏环内烯丙基氢的反应性。
