Stereospecific methods of synthesis of some cis- and trans-bicyclo[n.3.0]alkane-1-carboxylic acids are described, specifically 5a, 5b, and 11. The cis ring fusion is insured by use of the Diels–Alder reaction, and the trans ring fusion is fixed by the necessity of a cis attachment of an intermediate five-membered cyclic lactamol to the existing cyclopentane ring in 9.

Irradiation of 2,4-cyclooctadienone (1) in benzene or toluene is shown to give in >80% yield two head-to-head dimers. The ring fusions are shown to occur at the α,β-positions of the dienone with trans-cis and trans-anti-trans stereochemistry. Both dimers may be epimerized to the same product with cis-anti-cis ring fusions. Evidence is presented to show that the singlet state is responsible for the cis-trans isomerization of 1 to the highly reactive intermediate trans, cis-2,4-cyclooctadienone. This intermediate can dimerize in a thermal 2 + 2 cycloaddition or can be generated at −78° and then trapped by 1,3-dienes in a Diels–Alder reaction. A mechanism for the dimerization reaction is discussed.

Titanium(III) chloride was found to be an effective catalyst for the imino Diels-Alder reaction between an imine (generated in situ) and an activated alkene in acetonitrile at ambient temperature. The reaction proceeds smoothly to afford the corresponding adduct as a mixture of chromatographically separable cis- and trans isomers in moderate to good yields.
