✦ Synopsis


heptafulvene, 8, undergoes both an intramolecular [8+21 cycloaddition and a loll-electron electrocyclization followed by 1,5-sigmatropic hydrogen shifts to give 10 and 12, respectively.

Acetylheptafulvene, 1, was reported to be unstable by Hafner,' although the reaction of 1 with DMAD to give an intermolecular C8+21 cycloadduct was observed. Bertelli s & reported that attempted preparation of 1 or 3 led to rearrangement or cyclization, as shown below, but gave no isolable acetylheptafulvene derivatives.*
