Product Information

• Name: 5,6,11,12-Tetradehydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclooctene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 5,6,11,12-Tetradehydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclooctene is a furan that contains an anion group. It is a molecule with four cyclic structures and two double bonds. The compound functions as an intermediate in the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between a diene and a dienophile. 5,6,11,12-Tetradehydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclooctene can be synthesized by the Suzuki reaction between dichloroketene and dimerization of phenolic compounds. The compound has two isomers: 5H-1 and 6H-2. The former is more stable than the latter due to steric hindrance from the methyl group on C5. There are also two oxygen atoms in the molecule's molecular structure; one at C4 and one at C5.
