Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of disodium bicyclo[2.2.1]heptene-2,3-dicarboxylate (10.0 g) in water (100 g) was added 0.5 g palladium on activated carbon (5 wt %). The mixture was transferred into a Parr reactor and was subjected to hydrogenation (50 psi, room temperature) for 8 hours. The activated carbon was filtered out. Water is removed in vacuo at 75° C. The resulting product was dried and milled (m.p >300° C.).
