Procedure
To a 2-liter stainless steel autoclave reactor was charged 0.99 kg (7.26 mol) 3-epoxy-5-vinyl norbornane and 0.06 kg (0.45 mol) dicyclopentadiene. Stirring was started, and the reactor evacuated of air and padded with 5 psig nitrogen. Heating to 180° C. commenced, and upon achieving 180° C., the reactor was held for 4 hours at this temperature. At the end of this time, the reactor was cooled to ambient temperature and discharged. The major identified components of the charge, as measured by GC area, were: 0.6% dicyclopentadiene, 81.6% 3-epoxy-5-vinyl norbornane, 1.3% epoxyethylepoxy norbornane, 13.6% norbornenyl epoxy norbornane. A total of four reactions were completed and distilled to produce 0.3 kg norbornenyl epoxy norbornane with assay greater than 96% (GC area).
