In the reaction of 7,7-dibromonorcarane with methyllithium tricyclo2,7>heptane, 7-(1-ethoxyethyl)bicycloheptane, and 7,7-bisnorcaranylidene are formed, and the proportions of these depnd on the reaction temperature.Substituted gem-dibromobicycloheptanes react analogously. 6,6-Dibromobicyclohexanes substituted in the 1 position react with methyllithium with the formation of 3,12-disubstituted tricyclo2,7>dodeca-2,12-dienes.
