Bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane‐ endo ‐ and ‐ exo ‐3‐diazonium ions ( 15 , 17 ) were generated by diazotization of the analogous amines ( 12 , 14 ) as well as by photolysis of bicyclo[3.2.0]‐heptan‐3‐one tosylhydrazone ( 13 ). In contrast to solvolyses of the corresponding tosylates ( 8 , 11 ), the dediazoniation reactions afforded 16–30% of 7‐norbornanol. By means of deuterium labels, the rearrangement was found to proceed by way of sequential 2,3‐H and 1,2‐alkyl shifts; a protonated spirocyclopentane 5 [7] is not involved in this process. While the 2,3‐H shift is but moderately exo ‐selective, nucleophilic capture of the 7‐norbornyl cation (3‐D‐ 2 ) occurs stereospecifically within the limits of detection.
