✦ Synopsis


The thermal Cope rearrangement of 1,2-divinylcyclopmpane systems to afford the corresponding cycloheptadienes is, particularly if the vinyl substituents are a-oriented, a very facile process which hasbeen the subject of considerable study'. However, this type of conversion has received relatively little application in synthetic organic chemistry. Clearly, the very cornnan occurrence of seven-membered rings in many different classes of natural products provides impetus for investigations regarding the possibility of using this type of transformation in synthesis. Recently, Marina and Kaneko have demonstrated the use of thermal rearrangement of substituted 3-(Z-vinylcyclopropyl)-Z-cyclohexen-l-ones' and 2-methyl-3-(Z-vinylcyclopropyl)-

## Abstract With __t__‐BuO^−^/__t__‐BuOH at 185°C bicyclo‐[2.2.2] and ‐[3.2.1]octanones are interconvertible. In saturated systems equilibrium is attained very slowly, but in unsaturated cases an equilibrium mixture heavily favoring the [3.2.1] skeleton is obtained relatively rapidly, thereby provi
