Stereospecific syntheses afforded endo,endo- (1) and exo,exo- (2) bicamphors, while the third possible diastereomeric exo,endo-bicamphor (3) originated from nonselective camphor radical dimerization. The stereochemistry of bicamphor linkage was confirmed by 1H NMR analysis. Chiroptical and ultraviolet spectral data are presented for the three diastereomers 1-3 to show interchromophoric interaction. Conformational analysis to evaluate the relative orientation of each pair of carbonyl chromophores was accomplished by 1H NMR spectroscopy and molecular mechanics calculations.

The conformational analysis of several 2,4-disubstituted 9-oxobicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives (diesters IIIb and IIIc, and dihalo compounds IV, Va, Vb and VI) derived from 9-oxobicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-exo-2, exo-4-dicarboxylic acid has been studied by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy with the aid of Molecular Mechanics Calculations (MM3 program).

(5α,9α,11β)-11-Hydroxy-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-5,9-propanobenzo[7]annulen-7-one ethylene ketal (6a) and its 11α-methyl derivative (6b) were prepared from monoketal 3. These compounds underwent acid-catalyzed transannular reactions leading to 6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-5,9-propanobenzo[7]annulene derivatives 5a, 8a and 5b, 8b, respectively, depending on the reaction conditions. The compounds 6a and 6b were dehydrated to 6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-5,9-prop[1]enobenzo[7]annulen-7-one (9a) and its 11-methyl derivative (9b), respectively. The conformational analysis of the 5,9-propanobenzo[7]annulene derivatives by molecular mechanics calculations (MM3 program) and the 1H NMR data show that hydroxyketal 6a and the related compound (5α,7β,9α)-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-5,9-propanobenzo[7]annulen-7-ol (4) exist mainly in the boat-chair conformation with the boat cycloheptenol ring, while for hydroxyketal 6b the chair-boat conformation (chair cycloheptenol ring) seems to be the preferred one.
