Abstract
The stability of bridgehead olefins containing 8 and 10 membered rings has been investigated by the MMX molecular mechanics calculation together with the GMMX conformational searching program. A number of 'hyperstable' bridgehead olefins, which have negative olefin strain values, have been found from the calculated values of strain energy and olefin strain for the series of in- and out-bicyclo[n.3.3]alk-1-ene and in- and out-bicyclo[n.4.4]alk-1-ene (n=1 to 8). For the bridgehead olefins with 'out' topology, hyperstable olefins were found in the systems having cyclononene or larger rings. For the bridgehead olefins with 'in' topology, hyperstable olefins were found in the systems having cyclodecene or larger rings.
