Abstract

The diene 1a reacted with CHCl3/aq. NaOH/PTC in CH2 Cl2 unexpectedly to give a mixture of the chlorination products 2 and 3a. Usual chlorination with Cl2 yielded similarly 2, 3a, and 3b dependent on the amount of Cl2. The formation of 2 as well as the reaction of 7 to give 9 (besides 8) shows an unusual Cl-Cl-interaction.
