Abstract

Our ongoing study on cycloaddition reactions of dienes with different dienophiles afforded a great variety of derivatives with interesting molecular structures and electronic behavior. A new type of angularly annelated [2.2]paracyclophane (3) has been synthesize by the Diels–Alder reaction of 4-(2-propenyl[2.2]paracyclophane (1) and 1,4-benzoquinone (2) under high pressure conditions. The structure determination of this compound has been achieved by NMR measurements and semiempirical calculations.
