title: Design and synthesis of propellane derivatives and oxa-bowls via ring-rearrangement metathesis as a key step.
abstract: Various intricate propellane derivatives and oxa-bowls have been synthesized via a ring-rearrangement metathesis (RRM) as a key step starting from readily accessible starting materials such as p-benzoquinone, 1,4-naphthoquinone and 1,4-anthraquinone.
