Characteristic Infrared Absorption Bands for Diels—Alder Quinone Adducts and Derivatives

Abstract

Extension of established correlations for carbonyl and carbon—carbon double bonds have been evolved for some Diels—Alder quinone adducts and derivatives. Some empirical correlations for novel nortricyclenic derivatives are discussed. These compounds have four possible stereoisomers and their infrared spectra provide a ready method of differentiation.
