Synthesis of a novel bis-triquinane: a photochemical rearrangement in cyclohexadienone moiety resulting in aromatisation

Butterflyene: an entry into an aesthetically pleasing carbocycle via a Diels–Alder reaction on a tetrasubstituted olefin

“…1. [6][7][8][9] Our synthetic studies towards such scaffolds 10,11 prompted us to explore new carbocycles possessing fascinating molecular architectures. In the present communication, we demonstrate a synthetic protocol towards acquisition of an interesting molecular geometry resembling the shape of a butterfly in four simple steps from cyclopentanone without using complex and fancy reagents.…”
