## Abstract The chemistry of the highly substituted cyclobutanone derivative 2, which is easily accessible from 1, is dominated by the steric hindrance caused by the substitutents: Reduction with hydride reagents and nucleophilic additions with methyllithium are less stereoselective than correspond

Abstract
Bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane‐endo‐ and ‐exo‐3‐diazonium ions (15, 17) were generated by diazotization of the analogous amines (12, 14) as well as by photolysis of bicyclo[3.2.0]‐heptan‐3‐one tosylhydrazone (13). In contrast to solvolyses of the corresponding tosylates (8, 11), the dediazoniation reactions afforded 16–30% of 7‐norbornanol. By means of deuterium labels, the rearrangement was found to proceed by way of sequential 2,3‐H and 1,2‐alkyl shifts; a protonated spirocyclopentane 5^[7]^ is not involved in this process. While the 2,3‐H shift is but moderately exo‐selective, nucleophilic capture of the 7‐norbornyl cation (3‐D‐2) occurs stereospecifically within the limits of detection.
