In general, if the atoms that make up the ring contain heteroatoms, such rings become heterocycles, and organic compounds containing heterocycles are called heterocyclic compounds. An article called Electrochemical preparation of highly strained hydrocarbons. IV. Controlled potential electrolysis, published in 1971, which mentions a compound: 3229-00-3, Name is Pentaerythrityltetrabromide, Molecular C5H8Br4, Application of 3229-00-3.
1,1-Bis(bromomethyl)cyclopropane (I) is the intermediate in the reduction of C(CH2Br)4 (II) to spiropentane (III). II is reduced [cathode potential between -1.2 and -1.4 V (SCE)] to give I which is reduced at -2.2 V to give III. NMR data for I and III are given.
