Treatment of conjugated cyclodienes (5a-5c) with excess ozone in dichoromethane in the presence of added carbonyl compounds (3) resulted to give the corresponding diozonides 10 and cross-ozonides 14. Similarly, ozonolysis of the nonconjugated 1,4-cyclohexadiene (6a) and 1,5-cyclooctadiene (6b) under same conditions afforded both diozonides 20 and cross-ozonides 14. On the other hand, Ozonolysis of bicyclo[2.2.0]hepta-2,5-diene (6c) in the presence of 3A provided the corresponding diozonide 19.
