Tricyclopentadiene (TCPD), product of dicyclopentadiene (DCPD)/cyclopentadiene (CPD) cycloaddition, is a promising candidate as high-energy–density fuel. Thermal [4+2] cycloaddition of DCPD and CPD was simulated using M05-2X/6-311G(d,p) to predict the product distribution. There are four concerted but slightly asynchronous pathways leading to four adducts for endo-DCPD/CPD and exo-DCPD/CPD additions,...
SummaryThe oligomerization of cyclopentadiene (CPD) and its dimer, dicyclopentadiene (DCPD), to tricyclopentadiene (TCPD) through Diels-Alder reaction at temperatures between 120 and 150°C was investigated. The results show that reaction temperature, pressure and solvent influence the product yield; at 150°C up to 50% yield of TCPD was obtained in the absence of solvents. The ratios of isomers A to...
