Abstract
New tricyclic annelated cyclobutylcarbinols are synthesized diastereoselectively.
Acid-induced fragmentation and Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement of these alcohols to
give bicyclic dienes and annelated norbornanes are reported.
Key words
fused-ring systems - carbocations - rearrangements - ring opening - cycloadditions
