Abstract
The synthesis of a novel polyfunctional bicyclic compound, ,3-bis(acet oxymethyl)bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene (1), is reported. The obtained prochiral synthon may be considered as a useful substrate on the rout e toward natural products and compounds of pharmaceutical interest. Su bmission of 1 to palladium-catalyzed elimination affords vinylic aceta te 3, ethylene-3-(acetoxyvinyl)bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene, in excellent yields.
