Thermal, and especially photochemical, rearrangement of the endoperoxides (1) and ( )-( ) gives By-epoxycycloalkanones as primary products, accompanied by the expected syn-diepoxides. Unsaturated endoperoxides [e.g.(l)] are readily available by reaction of singlet oxygen ('0,) with conjugated diene

## Abstract The chemistry of two bicyclic endoperoxides, obtained by photooxygenation of 2,3βbenzotropone (=5__H__βbenzocycloheptenβ5βone; **5**) and of its ethyl carboxylate derivative **15**, was investigated with the aim of synthesizing the respective benzotropolone derivatives. The reaction of
