Abstract
The dimerization of cyclopentadiene was studied in the presence of a number of solvents, such as benzene, methanol, carbon disulfide and pyridine. The results show that pure cyclopentadiene dimerizes at a faster rate than when it is dissolved in solvents. However, this retardation effect brought about by most of the solvents was roughly of the same order of magnitude being apparently independent of chemical nature as well as physical properties of the solvents e.g. basicity, polarity, dielectric constant, etc. The dimerization of cyclopentadiene apparently follows a second order kinetics. The initial product of dimerization is mostly endo dicyclopentadiene. However, in course of time some exo isomer is also formed. The chromatographic retention behavior of the dicyclopentadiene enantiomers together with their i.r. spectral data are presented.
