The kinetics of the gas phase isomerization of l-chloro-4-bromobicyclo[2.2.O]hexane to 2-chloro-5-bromohexa-1,5diene have been measured in a static system over the temperature range of 135-215"C, with a variation in the total pressure from 0.6 to 400 torr. For these conditions, the rate constants ar

Abstract
1, 4‐Dicyanobicyclo[2.2.0]hexane (2) was prepared by (2+2)‐photocycloaddition of ethylene to 1, 2‐dicyanocyclobutene. 2 isomerizes cleanly to 2, 5‐dicyanohexadiene‐1, 5 (3) with a very low activation energy of 21.7 ± 1.4 kcal/mol. From comparison with the reported rates of isomerization of bicyclo[2.2.0]hexane, the radical stabilization energy of the cyano group is shown to be about 7.3 kcal/mol.
