- Abstract
When crystals of 9-tricyclo[4.4.1.0]undecalyl-4-(carbomethoxy)phenyl ketone (1) were allowed to stand in the dark for extended periods of time at room temperature, the compound underwent a thermal reaction — the enolene rearrangement — to afford enol 2. The crystals remained transparent and appeared unchanged in shape as the reaction proceeded. X-ray diffraction data were collected on single crystals containing 17%, 25%, 66%, and 100% of the enol. The crystal structure of a simple enol was obtained via this novel single-crystal-to-single-crystal enolene rearrangement.
