## Abstract Radical addition to 7โoxabicylco[2.2.1]heptโ5โenโ2โone (1) was examined from a regiochemical point of view, and despite the small electronic anisotropy of the double bond, electrophilic radicals were found to add preferentially at C(5) with selectivities of up to 5:1. We also report the

Summary
(-)-1-Camphanoyloxyacrylonitrile (= (-)-1 -cyanovinyl camphanate; 1) obtained from the commercially available ( -)-camphanoyl chloride and 2-0x0propiononitrile added to furan at 20" in the presence of CU(BF,)~. 6 H 2 0 or Zn12 and gave a mixture of 2-cyano-7-oxabicyclo [2.2. IIhept-5-en-2-yl camphanates (2-5) from which isomer 5 could be obtained pure by crystallization. The latter was transformed into (+ )-( 1 R)-7-oxabicyclo [2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one (6) in high yield and optical purity. Adducts 2-4 were recycled into 1 + furan by heating in toluene, and (-)-camphanic acid was recovered after saponification of 5. The absolute configuration of 6 was deduced from its CD spectrum which showed two 1200-cm-' Franck-Condon series for its n + nEo transition.
