Description

The authors study the reaction of Et2Mg and EtMgBr with bicyclo(2.2.1) heptene derivatives containing highly active double bonds. Cp2ZrC12 catalyzes the steroselective cis-carbomagnesiation of norbornene and dicyclopentadiene by diethylmagnesium and ethylmagnesium bromide. In the case of norbornadiene, the carbomagnesiation is accompanied by an intramolecular rearrangement leading to a substitute nortricyclene
