1-Phenyl-1,2-cyclooctadiene Dimerizes in an Unusual Manner
ANGEWANDTE CHEMIE-INTERNATIONAL EDITION(1996)
Abstract
Under kinetic control, the dimerization of the title allene proceeds with participation of one phenyl group. Only on thermolysis of the dimer 1 is the thermodynamically favored dimer 2 formed, which, unlike the dimers of known cycloallenes with eight-membered or smaller rings, has a cis configuration.
