✦ Synopsis
Owing to our recent synthesis of N-carbethoxylazonin (1) and oxonin we became quite interested in the title compound (all-cis CNT) 1 as an ideal classical-polyenic model. Furthermore, our recent description of the various reorganization pathways availa.ble to both ground and excited state CNT, (3) coupled with subsequent experimental information concerning the possible intermediacy of this tetraene in the thermal rearrangement of various 9substituted bicyclo[6.l.O]nona-2,4,6-trienes, (&a-c) provided additional incentive for isolating 1. We presently report on the synthesis, isolation and bond reorganization of this coveted substance.
