Cycloaddition of masked o ‐benzoquinone, 6,9‐dipropyl‐1, 4‐dioxaspiro[4.5]deca‐6, 8‐dien‐2,10‐dione, with cycloheptatriene afforded mainly [4π+2π] adducts which was transformed into 1, 4‐dipropyl‐5H‐benzocycloheptene by hydrolysis, photolysis and dehydrogenation consecutively. These reaction sequences represent a novel method for the synthesis of 5H‐benzocycloheptene from catechol via masked o ‐benzoquinone.
