Synthetic approaches to 2-thia-3,4-benzobicyclo(3.2.0)-1,3,6-heptatriene and to 2-thia-3,4-benzobicyclo(3.2.0)-1,3-heptadiene required halogenated cyclobutanes derived from (/sub ..pi../2/sub s/ + /sub ..pi../2/sub s/) photocycloadditions of 2,3-dichlorobenzo(b)thiophene and either vinyl bromide or 1,2-dichloroethylene. Addition reactions of vinyl bromide and dichloroethylene with 2,3-dichlorobenzo(b)thiophene and with 2,3-dibromobenzo(b)thiophene are reported. X-ray crystal structures of the two adducts derived from vinyl bromide and 2,3-dibromobenzo(b)thiophene specify their stereochemistry. The adducts to 2,3-dibromobenzo(b)thiophene are linear, and structure determinations for these compounds are also reported. 2 figures, 1 table.
