A process for the preparation of 3,4,5-trithiapolycyclo compounds is described which comprises the reaction of sulfur with bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene compounds carried out in the presence of (1) a phenol, and (2) a base. The process can be carried out either in the absence or presence of an inert organic solvent. The trithiapolycyclic compounds produced by this process are useful as monomers in the synthesis of polymers which can be employed as additives for lubricants, to produce effective coatings on solid substrates, or to produce fibers and films.
