Abstract

The C-1 substituted 6,6-dichlorobicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes 1a–c have been prepared and shown to undergo electrocyclic ring-opening to give the corresponding π-allyl cations 2 that cyclise to afford the spirocyclic products 3bd, each of which has been subjected to single-crystal X-ray analysis.
