Syntheses of 7,7‐diphenyl[2.2.1]hericene ( 4 ) and 7‐oxa[2.2.1]hericene ( 5 ) are presented. Rate constants k 1 and k 2 of the two successive Diels ‐ Alder additions of ethylenetetracarbonitrile (TCE) to 4 and to 5 have been evaluated. At 25° in toluene, the rate‐constant ratio k 1 / k 2 = 260 and 21 for 4 and 5 , respectively. These results are compared with those reported for the tandem Diels ‐ Alder reactivity of 2,3,5,6‐tetramethylidenebicyclo[2.2.1]heptane and other derivatives.
