Notes:
Addition of Carboxylic Acids to (1S)-5,5-Dimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-eneProtonation of the title compound 5 induced Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement and 6,2(6,1)-hydride shifts, depending on the polarity of the acid (trifluoroacetic, acetic, and 2-ethylhexanoic acid). The optical purity of 5,5-dimethyl-2-norbornyl esters (7) exceeded that of 7,7-dimethyl-2-norbornyl esters (9). The results are interpreted in terms of asymmetric ion pairs which are tighter than those involved in deamination reactions.
