The thermal oligomerization of allene (1) in the gas-phase has been reinvestigated.At 260 deg C and low conversion, 1,6,7-trimethylenespirononane (14) and 1,2,5,6-tetramethylenecyclooctane (15) have been detected besides the already known thermal oligomers 2-8.Increase of substrate concentration and reaction time lead to significant amounts of a hexamer fraction which contains the new allene oligomers 16-23 according to spectroscopic analysis.Possible routes of formation of the unusual hexamers 16 and 20 are discussed.
