Abstract
Actual applications of thermolysis reactions in organic synthesis are described with emphasis on pericyclic reactions of small ring hydrocar bons such as cyclopropanes (vinylcyclopropanes, 1,2-divinylcyclopropan es), cyclobutanes, cyclobutenes, and benzocyclobutenes. Several exampl es for the application of retro Diels-Alder reactions for the preparat ion of reactive intermediates as well as for the synthesis of interest ing target molecules are given.
