Reaction Steps

A suspension of 40 mmol (6.3 g) of 8-ketotricyclo[5.2.1.02,6 ]decane and 60 mmol of sodium methoxide (11 g of a 30% solution) in 50 ml of cyclohexane are stirred at 50° C. for 30 minutes. 50 mmol (9.0 g) of terephthalaldehyde monodimethyl acetal are then added dropwise and the mixture is refluxed for 1 hour. It is then cooled to room temperature and 100 ml of water are added.
