[摘要]:Foiled carbene structures comprising strong stabilizing interactions between the divalent carbon and the intramolecular double bond have been located by DFT calculations. These tetracyclic species bearing fused five-membered rings impeding intramolecular rearrangements are theoretically predicted to lie in a deep potential energy well. A suitable dibromocyclopropane precursor for this type of foiled carbene has been prepared in 12 steps. Its treatment with methyllithium led to the isolation of a product of a formal carbene dimerization, a bicyclopropylidene. |
