The synthesis of 3-methylene-7-vinylidenebicyclo(3.3.1)nonane - a new representative of pseudoconjugated allenes - was realized. In its reaction with electrophilic reagents (sulfuric acid, hydrogen chloride, bromine, and iodine) preferential cyclization to derivatives of adamantane occurs. Increase in the sulfuric acid concentration leads to the formation of 1,2-dimethylprotoadamantan-3-one - the product from more extensive rearrangement. In addition to transannular cyclization, hydrogen chloride in hexane gives rise to exo-endo isomerization of the ..pi.. bond. The differences in the regioselectivity of transannular cyclization under the influence of the acid and the halogen are discussed.
