Abstract
The oxidative cycloaddition of 3,4-dibromo-[n](2,5)-thiophenophanes 12 b-e and (2,4)[8]thiophenophane 16 with dienophiles gave stereoselectiv ely O=S-bridged cycloadducts 18, 19 and 24. The X-ray analysis of cycl oadduct 18a shows it to have a rigid conformation. The molecules can b e regarded as a new series of paddlanes. Under the same oxidative cond itions, 3,4-dibromo-[8] (2,5)thiophenophane (12a) gave the two dimers 29 and 30. The results of the X-ray analysis of 29 are discussed.
