Regioselective desymmetrization of 4-substituted pyridazin-3,6-diones using sterically hindered 2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl-sulfonylchloride allowed efficient sequential palladium cross-coupling reactions.     

Selective synthesis of bis[1,2]dithiolo[1,4]thiazines from 4-isopropylamino-5-chloro-1,2-dithiole-3-ones

Reaction of 4-isopropylamino-5-chloro-1,2-dithiole-3-ones 3 and S₂Cl₂ in acetonitrile gave selectively 3-oxo-bis[1,2]dithiolo[1,4]thiazine-5-thiones 1 by the addition of triethylamine and bis[1,2]dithiolo[1,4]thiazine-3,5-diones 5 under the action of formic acid. 3,5-Diones 5 were also obtained by intramolecular cyclization of N,N-bis(5-chloro-3-oxo[1,2]dithiol-4-yl)amines 6 with S₂Cl₂ in the presence of Et₃N.     

Vibrational analysis of halogenated derivatives of cyclobuten-3,4-dione I. 1,2-Dichloro-, 1-chloro-2-bromo-, and 1,2-dibromocyclobuten-3,4-dione

The polarized Raman spectrum of solutions, and the infra-red spectra of solutions and isooriented films in polarized radiation have been measured for 1,2-dichloro- and for the previously unknown 1-chloro-2-bromo- and 1,2 dibromocyclobuten-3,4-dione. A normal coordinate analysis has been carried out with the aims of obtaining an acceptably low dispersion force field and a good agreement with the experimental frequencies.     

Selective Stille coupling reactions of 3-chloro-5-halo(pseudohalo)-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones

A series of 3-chloro-5-halo(pseudohalo)-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones (halo/pseudohalo = Br, I, OTf) are prepared from 3,5-dichloro-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-one (3) in good yields. Of these the triflate reacts with tributyltin arenes (Stille couplings) chemoselectively to give only the 5-aryl-3-chloro-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-ones in high yields. This allowed the preparation of a series of unsymmetrical biaryl thiadiazines and ultimately a series of oligomers. Furthermore, treatment of 3-chloro-5-iodo-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-one (10) with Bu(3)SnH and Pd(OAc)(2) gave the bithiadiazinone which can also be further arylated via the Stille reaction to give bisthien-2-yl and bis(N-methylpyrrol-2-yl) analogs.     

General synthetic entry to linearly-fused dihydrobenzocyclobutene-1,2-diones and benzocyclobutene-1,2-diones via annulation of 1,2-bis(methylene)carbocycles with 3-chloro-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione

The tandem Diels-Alder/dehydrochlorination reaction of semisquaric chloride (1) with the 1,2-bis(methylene)cycloalkanes 2a-c and 1,2-bis(methylene)-4-cyclohexene (9) affords the linearly-fused cycloalkanodihydrobenzocyclobutene-1,2-diones 3a-c and 3,4,7,8-tetrahydrocyclobuta[b]-naphthalene-1,2-dione (10), respectively. On treatment with MnO2, 3a-c are dehydrogenated to the respective carbocycle-fused benzocyclobutene-1,2-diones 4a-c in good yields. 3a and 3b react with bromine to give the addition products 5a,b, which, on treatment with silver trifluoroacetate, afford the benzocyclobutene-1,2-diones 4a,b. For preparative purposes, the sequence 3-->5-->4 can be performed advantageously as a "one-pot procedure". Double-condensation reactions of 4a,b with alpha,alpha'-biscyano-o-xylene and o-phenylenediamine afford the pentacyclic biphenylenes 7a,b and the cyclobutahetarenes 8a,b, respectively. These cyclobutenediones suggest themselves as building blocks for the construction of extended linearly-fused polycyclic compounds with novel ring sequences. o-Quinodimethanes 12a-g generated in situ by the thermal decomposition of the respective 1,4-dihydro-2,3-benzoxathiin-3-oxides (sultines) 11a-g react with semisquaric chloride (1) to afford the 3,8-dihydronaphtho[b]cyclobutene-1,2-diones 13a-g. These, on dehydrogenation with bromine and/or MnO2, furnish the naphtho[b]cyclobutene-1,2-diones 14a-g in fair to good yields. As described for 4a,b the naphtho[b]cyclobutene-1,2-diones 14a-c are condensed with alpha,alpha'-biscyano-o-xylene and o-phenylenediamine to furnish the pentacyclic biphenylenes 15a-c and the pentacyclic cyclobutahetarenes 16a-c.     

Condensation of 1,2-dihydro-7-methoxy-4-vinylnaphthalene with 3,5-dimethyl-3-cyclopentene-1,2-dione

Summary Unlike 2-(3,4-dihydro-6-methoxy-1-naphthyl)ethenol acetate (I) [4-(2-acetoxyvinyl)-1,2-dihydro-7-methoxy-naphthalene], the diene of analogous structure -1,2-dihydro-7-methoxy-4-vinylnaphthalene (III)-in condensation with 3,5-dimethyl-3-cyclopentene-1,2-dione (II) forms an adduct (IV) which contains a 15- and not a 17-keto group. The orientation in the diene condensation is determined by the presence, or absence, of an electronegative substituent in the 1-position of the diene of type (III).Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1058–1061, June, 1965

Synthesis of 4-iodo-3-furanones utilizing electrophile-induced tandem cyclization/1,2-migration reactions

Two protocols for the construction of 4-iodo-3-furanones through a sequence consisting of cyclization and 1,2-migration of 2-alkynyl-2-silyloxy carbonyl compounds were developed. In one, electrophilic cyclization is directly induced by N-iodosuccinimide (NIS). In the second less limited variant, AuCl3 catalyzes the tandem reaction in the presence of NIS to provide highly substituted heterocycles in moderate to excellent yields.
