Interpretation
The structure for the derivative of divinylcyclopropane including its stereochemistry is to be deduced.
Concept introduction:
>Reactions of dienes that proceed in a single step by way of cyclic transition state are called pericyclic reactions.
>Compounds having
Cope rearrangement is a type of pericyclic reaction in which one
The reactant molecule must have two isolated double bonds at
The reaction must pass through a cyclic transition state to produce two cis double bonds in the ring.
>The product of the Cope rearrangement has double bonds at
