Abstract

The dimerization reaction of bicyclo[2,2,1]hepta-2,5-diene (norbornadiene) by a system of catalyst produce dimers of the norbornadiene which are ingredients of high density liquid fuels and lubricants. With the system of catalyst, which consists of iron (III) chloride, 3-butyl-1-methyimidazolium chloride, and diethylaluminum chloride, the endo-endo stereoisomer of the hexacyclic dimer was obtained as a main product with excellent selectivity and conversion.
