The construction of tricyclo[5.2.1.0^1,6]decene skeleton was achieved by cyclobutane ring formation via improved radical reaction using SmI₂-H₂O-HFIP and SmI₂-LiCl conditions in good yields. Those additives were studied to increase the reactivity of SmI₂. Two interesting reactions via neighboring group participations are described for introducing the C4 oxygen functionality by the assistance of C6 substituent in a regioselective manner.
