J. P. Herres, M. A. Forman and K. A. Wheeler

Abstract: The title compound, C₂₆H₃₂, was retrieved as one of three products from the reaction of tert-butyllithium with 11,12-dimethylene-9,10-dihydroethenoanthracene and 4,5-diiodopentacyclo[4.3.0.0^2,4.0^3,8.0^5,7]nonane. The structure shows the expected ethenoanthracene geometry with molecules arranged via van der Waals surfaces.
