Abstract
The flow-vacuum pyrolyses of title compounds 6 and 7 were examined at 1 Torr and various temperatures between 250-degrees (respectively 300- degrees) and 650-degrees. From both pyrolyses the following hydrocarbo ns were formed: 9,10-dihydro-9,10-propenoanthracene (1), 1, 1a, 1,6-me thano-dibenzo[a,c]cyclo-propa[c]cycloheptene (2), 11,11a-dihydro-6aH-b enzo[a]fluorene (3), 6,11-dihydro -5H-benzo [a]-fluorene (4), 11H-benz o [a]fluorene (5) and anthracene. Besides these products the epimeric exo-acetate 10 was formed in pyrolysis of endo-acetate 6 whereas from pyrolysis of 7 important amounts of corresponding ketone 9 were obtain ed. A radical mechanism is suggested.
