1-R-Tricyclo[4.1.0.0(2,7)]heptanes (R = H, Me, Ph) take up methane- and halomethanesulfonyl thiocyanates XCH2SO2SCN (X = H, Cl, Br) at the central C-1-C-7 bond in benzene at 20 degrees C with high anti-selectivity to give bicyclo[3.1.1]heptane derivatives with the 7-endo-oriented sulfonyl group and the thiocyanato group in the geminal position with respect to the R substituent. The syn-adducts lose HSCN molecule by the action of potassium tert-butoxide in THF at 0A degrees C or on heating in boiling aqueous dioxane containing NaOH with formation of 1-(X-methylsulfonyl)tricyclo[4.1.0.0(2,7)]heptanes. Under analogous conditions the anti-adducts (X = Me) are converted into 1,2-bis(7-syn-methylsulfonyl-6-endo-R-bicyclo[3.1.1]hept-6-exo-yl)disulfanes. The anti-adduct derived from unsubstituted tricyclo[4.1.0.0(2,7)]heptane and MeSO2SCN reacted with methyllithium or phenylmagnesium bromide to produce 7-anti-methyl(phenyl)sulfanyl-6-endo-methylsulfonylbicyclo-[3.1.1]heptanes which were also obtained by photochemical addition of MeSO2SMe(or Ph) to tricyclo-[4.1.0.0(2,7)]heptane. Geometric parameters of radical intermediates in the sulfonylation of 1-R-tricyclo-[4.1.0.0(2,7)]heptanes were optimized ab initio using 6-31G basis set.
