Abstract
Treatment of pentadienol-Fe(CO)(3) complexes, having alkene functional ity in the side chain, with boron trifluoride, results in a stereospec ific cyclization by reaction of the alkene with a stabilized carbocati on intermediate; the stereochemical outcome was confirmed by X-ray str ucture determination of one of the products.
