[(Z)-5-(Benzoyloxybenzylidene)]- 1,4-bis(trifluorome thyl)-8-oxatricyclo[4.3.0.0 2.9 ]nona-3,6-diene (4) and 11,12-benzo-10-benzoyloxy-2,8-bis(trifluoromethyl) 5-oxapentacyclo[7.3.0.0 1,6 0 2,4 0 3,7 ]dodec-8-ene (5) are two of four main (1:1) adducts of the title reactants. The crystallographical characterization of (4) and (5) assists in establishing the mechanistic pathways of the reaction. The ring strain in isomer (4) is particu larly marked at double-bonded C6 where the three angles sum to 344.4 (7) o ; in the three-membered ring, C2-C9 [1.542 (7) A] is significantly longer than C1-C2 and C1-C9 [1.479 (6) and 1.470 (6) A respectively] and the angles C2-C1-C9, C1-C2-C9 and C1-C9-C2 [63.1 (3), 58.2 (3) and 58.8 (3) o respectively] are all significantly different from 60 o |
