Substitution vs. rearrangement in 7-chloro-7-methylbicyclo[3,2,0]hept-2-en-6-ones. The importance of C-7 stereochemistry

Abstract
The chloromethylketen adducts of cyclopentadiene undergo competitive stereospecific substitution and rearrangement reactions with nucleophilic bases which depend upon the base strength and the C-7 stereochemistry of the starting material.
