Norbornadiene is an organic compound. This bicyclic hydrocarbon is the most stable diolefin derived from the norbornane and norbornene. Norbornadiene is primarily of interest as a ligand in homogeneous catalysis, but it has been heavily studied due to its high reactivity and distinctive structural property of being a diene that cannot isomerize.

Synthesis

Norbornadiene forms via the Diels-Alder reaction between a cyclopentadiene and an alkyne.

Norbornadiene synthesis

Reactions

Quadricyclane, a valence isomer, can be obtained from norbornadiene by a photochemical reaction when assisted by a sensitizer such as acetophenone:[1]

The norbornadiene-quadricyclane couple is of potential interest for solar energy storage when controlled release of the strain energy stored in quadricyclane back to norbornadiene is made possible.[2]

Norbornadiene is reactive in cycloaddition reactions. Norbornadiene is also the starting material for the synthesis of diamantane[3] and sumanene and it is used as an acetylene transfer agent for instance in reaction with 3,6-di-2-pyridyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine.[4]

As a ligand

Norbornadiene is a versatile ligand in organometallic chemistry, where it serves as a two-electron or four-electron donor. The norbornadiene analogue of cyclooctadiene rhodium chloride dimer is widely used in homogeneous catalysis. Chiral, C2-symmetric dienes derived from norbornadiene have also been described.[5]

One example is tetracarbonyl(norbornadiene)chromium(0),[6] which is a useful source of "chromium tetracarbonyl," e.g. in reactions with phosphine ligands.
