A new route for the synthesis of bicycloocta-2,4-diene (1), -oct-3-ene (3), and -octane (4) is described as well as the first preparation of bicyclooct-2-ene (2).As common precursor 2,3-dibromobicyclooct-3-ene (7) has been utilized, obtained from norpinene (5) by addition of dibromocarbene and subsequent thermal rearrangement of the tricyclic product 6 formed.
