Sg. Bott et al., REACTION OF VINYLMAGNESIUM BROMIDE WITH ,9).0(4,14).0(9,13)]PENTADECA-5,7-DIENE-3,10-DIONE - TRANSANNULAR HEMIKETAL FORMATION, Journal of chemical crystallography, 26(6), 1996, pp. 429-433
Reaction between vinylmagnesium bromide and the cage dione leads to at
tack of only one equivalent of Grignard and intramolecular nucleophili
c attack on the second ketone. The product compound crystallizes in th
e monoclinic space group, P2(1)/a, with a = 9.509(1), b = 11.071(2), c
= 12.492(4) Angstrom, beta = 104.32(2)degrees, and Z = 4.
