Intramolecular Cycloaddition of Cyclobutadiene: Applications toward Functionalized 5-7-5 Tricyclic Ring Systems and Guaiane Natural Products
Thesis advisor: Marc L. Snapper === Intramolecular cycloadditions of cyclobutadiene provide rapid access to rigid polycyclic systems with high strain energies and unique molecular geometries. Further functionalization of these systems followed by strain-release fragmentation provides great opportuni...
