Superelectrophilic Cyclizations Involving 2-Norbornyl Dications
A series of anilino 2-norbornyl alcohols have been prepared and reacted in strongly acidic media. The chemistry provides ring-fused norbornane products in good yields (12 examples, 81-99% yields). A mechanism is proposed involving a novel ammonium-carbonium dicationic intermediate.
