Procedure: Dicyclopentadiene and 4-vinylcyclohexene in equimolar mixture were heated in an autoclave at 240° C. for 4-4.5 hours. The reaction product was diluted with cyclohexane and passed through a packed bed of alumina to remove the t-butyl-catechol inhibitor introduced with the reactants. The resulting product mixture was distilled in a wiped film evaporator at 3 mm Hg pressure at 90° C. to produce a light fraction containing unreacted vinylcyclohexene and dicyclopentadiene and the mono-adducts of 4-vinylcyclohexene and cyclo-pentadiene.
