Product Information
(1S,4S)-Bicyclo(2.2.2)octane-2,5-dione is an optically active compound with a chiral center at the carbon atom adjacent to the double bond. It has been used as an intermediate in organic chemistry for the synthesis of other compounds. (1S,4S)-Bicyclo(2.2.2)octane-2,5-dione can be synthesized from acetone and cyclopentadiene by reacting them in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce a mixture of cis and trans isomers that can be separated by crystallization or chromatography.
