✦ Synopsis
The anodic methoxylation of 3-phenyltoluene, 4-phenyltoluene and 4,4'dimethylbiphenyl carried out under constant current intensity afforded a number of new cyclohexa-1,4-dienes.

A straightforward route to polyols, amino polyols, polysubstituted lactols and lactones from readily available arenes has been devised. It uses a three-or four-step sequence involving a Birch reduction of the arene, followed by desymmetrization through dihydroxylation or aminohydroxylation and, last
Dehydrochlorination of the methoxytricyclooctanes (lb-d) affords the homotropilidenes (3b-d) regiospecifically by 1,4-elimination in strongly basic media.
