cis, cis‐, cis, trans ‐ and trans, trans‐o ‐Dipropenylbenzene ( cis, cis‐, cis, trans ‐ and trans, trans ‐ 1 ) were prepared. At 225° cis, cis ‐ 1 isomerises to give cis, trans ‐ 1 and vice versa. The isomerisation follows 1. order kinetics. At equilibrium 89% cis, trans ‐ and 11% cis, cis ‐ 1 are present. It is shown by deuterium labelling that the isomerisation is due to aromatic [1, 7 a ] sigmatropic H‐shifts. trans, trans ‐ 1 rearranges at 225° to yield 2, 3‐dimethyl‐1, 2‐dihydronaphthalene ( 3 ). This can be visualized by disrotatory ring closure of trans, trans ‐ 1 followed by an aromatic [1, 5 s ] H‐shift. When cis, cis ‐ or cis, trans ‐ 1 are heated for 153 hrs at 225° a small amount (3%) of 1‐ethyl‐1,2‐dihydronaphthalene ( 5 ) is formed.
