Processes for making bicyclic compounds and precursors thereof, and particularly for making [1.1.1]propellane and bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane and derivatives thereof, utilize continuous flow reaction methods and conditions. A continuous process for making [1.1.1]propellane can be conducted under reaction conditions that advantageously minimize clogging of a continuous flow reactor. A continuous flow process can be used to make precursors of [1.1.1]propellane.

A method for making cyclopentadiene fuels comprising producing cyclopent-2-en-1-one or a mixture of cyclopent-2-en-1-one from a bio-based source. The cyclopent-2-en-1-one or the mixture of cyclopent-2-en-1-one is hydrogenated, thereby forming cyclopent-2-en-1-ol or a mixture of cyclopent-2-en-1-ol. The cyclopent-2-en-1-ol or the mixture of cyclopent-2-en-1-ol is dehydrated with a dehydrating agent, thereby forming cyclopentadiene or a mixture of cyclopentadiene. The cyclopentadiene or mixture of cyclopentadiene is converted to dicyclopentadiene or dihydrodicyclopentadiene. The dicyclopentadiene or dihydrodicyclopentadiene is hydrogenated, thereby forming tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene. The tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene is isomerized, thereby forming exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene.
