Abstract

The configurational and conformational relationship at C‐2 and C‐α in the two racemic diastereomeric endo‐α‐methyl‐5‐norbornene‐2‐methanols and the corresponding saturated endo‐α‐methyl‐2‐norbornanemethanols were determined by first‐order analysis of the ^1^H n.m.r. spectra of these compounds and of their cyclization ether products, i.e. 3‐methyl‐2‐oxatricyclo[4.2.1.0^4,8^]nonanes and 5‐methyl‐4‐oxatricyclo[4.3.0.0^3,8^]nonanes. In addition, the conformational preference of the hydroxyl group in the unsaturated and saturated alcohols was confirmed by the lanthanide induced shift technique, using Eu(fod)~3~ as shift reagent, combined with a computer program involving various conformations of the –CHOHMe group.
