Exocyclic arylidene derivatives have been used as dienophiles in Diels-Alde
r reactions with cyclopentadiene. A series of novel heterocyclic derivative
s containing the spiro bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane system is the outcome of such
reactions. The reactions proceed with high exoselectivity in the presence o
f 5.0 M LPDE medium. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
