Conclusions
The homodimerization of spiro{bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene-7,1′-cyclopropane} (I) has been investigated in the presence of Ni-, Fe-, Co-, Rh-, and Ir-based metal complex catalysts. Depending on the nature of the metal and its ligand environment cyclodimerization of (I) can take place via [2π+2π]-, [2π+2π+2π]-, and [4π+4π]-cycloaddition schemes, to give high yields of hepta-, octa-, and nonacyclic strained hydrocarbons.
