The strained bridgehead olefins bicyclo [3.3.1]non‐1‐ene ( 1 ), bicyclo [4.2.1 ]non‐1(8)‐ene ( 2 ), and bicyclo [4.2.1]non‐1‐ene (3), and the comparable monocyclic ( E )‐1‐methylcyclooctene ( 4 ) react with diphenylketene ( 6 ) to give a single cycloadduct 7 , 8 , 9 and 10 , respectively, in which the diphenyl‐substituted C‐atom is bound to the bridgehead. The structure of the cyclobutanone 8 has been determined by X‐ray analysis of a twin crystal obtained by crystallization with spontaneous enrichment of enantiomers.
