e
] oxepins (
3
a and
3
b
), and -thiepins (4a and 4
b
) were synthesized. Compounds 4a and 4
b
were desulfurized to give a pair of isomeric 2-methylbenzoylcyclohexanes (10a and 10
b
). Deuterated 4a and 4
b
(11a and 11
b
) were prepared starting from butadiene-
d6
(12). The stereochemical features of
3
a (trans),
3
b
(cis), 4a (trans) and 4
b
(cis) are compared with those of 10a, 10
b
, 11a and 11
b
on the basis of proton nuclear magnetic resonance data.
