Abstract

Pyrolysis (320–370 °C) of polycyclic 1-pyrazolines1 and2, obtained by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of diazocyclopropane to 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene and spiro[2,3]hex-1-ene, yields complex mixtures of isomeric hydrocarbons, substituted methylenecyclopropanes being the main components. Pyrolysis of 6-ethenyl- (4) and 6-methoxy-6-methylcarbonyl-4,5-diazaspiro[2,4]hept-4-enes (6) at 310–320 °C proceeds more unambiguously to give vinyl- (18) and 1-methoxy-1-methylcarbonylspiropentanes (20) in ∼85 and 95 % yields with respect to the transformed pyrazolines. Dediazotization of pyrazoline3 obtained from diazocyclopropane and benzvalene requires more drastic conditions (−440 °C) and produces indane.
