Reaktion der Tautomeren 4-Hydroxy-2H-thiopyran-2-thion und 2-Mercapto-4H-thiopyran-4-on mit aliphatischen Aldehyden

5,6-Dihydro-4-hydroxy-6,6-dimethyl-2H-thiopyrane-2-thione (1 I) and its tautomer 2-mercapto-4H-thiopyrane-4-one (1 II) react with aliphatic aldehydes under different reaction conditions to yield mainly 5R-7,8-dihydro-2H,5H,6H-thiopyrano[2,3—b:6,5—b′]-bisthiopyran-4,6(3H)-diones2 and 2′R,4′R-5,6,6′,7′-tetrahydro-2-thioxo-spiro(4H-thiopyran-3(2H), 3′(4′H)-2′H,5′H-thiopyrano-[2,3—b]-thiopyran)-4,5′-diones3. The mechanisms of formation of the condensates2 and3 and their stereochemistry are discussed. The reaction yielding2 is analogous to the condensation of dimedone with subsequent anhydride formation.3 might be generated byDiels-Adler reaction of intermediately formed 2-thioxo-3-alkylidenethiopyranones4. An X-ray crystal structure analysis was carried out on3 b to establish its configuration and conformation.

Notiz zur Darstellung von 4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-on

Meldrum's acid (2) is acylated by diketen affording the acylMeldrum's acid3. In aqueous bicarbonate its 3-oxogroup is selectively reduced by sodium tetrahydroborate giving the alcohol4, which readily undergoes cyclization in refluxing dioxane leading to the title pyrone7. Under identical conditions3 produces the pyrone6 with the pyrone carboxylic acid5 as intermediate.

     

4-Methylisocamphenilansäure und 4-(3,3,4-Trimethyl-2-exo-norbornyl)-3-buten-2-on

The synthesis of 4-methylisocamphenilanic acid (7) and of the unsaturated ketone 4-(3,3,4-trimethyl-2-exo-norbornyl)-3-buten-2-one (2), an analogue of -irone (1), are described. The preparation of2 has been accomplished by: catalyzedDiels—Alder reaction of methylcyclopentadiene and mesityl oxide, hydrogenation and isomerization of the resulting ketone mixture to theexo-ketone6, oxidation of6 to the acid7, reduction of7 to the corresponding aldehyde8 and aldol reaction of8 with acetone. The structure of the key intermediate6 was established by mass, 100 MHz¹H-NMR and¹³C-NMR spectra. The odour of2 is discussed briefly.

Cycloadditionsreaktionen im System 2-Isocyanato-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphospholan/1,1,1,5,5,5-Hexafluor-4-trimethylsiloxy-3-penten-2-on

Cycloaddition Reactions in the System 2-Isocyanato-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane/1,1,1,5,5,5-Hexafluor-4-trimethylsiloxy-3-pentene-2-one The two title compounds react to give in a (3+2) cycloaddition the spiro iminophosphoran 3 and its dimer 4 , respectively. The (2+2) cycloaddition of hexafluoracetone and 3 yields the oxazaphosphetane 5 , which decomposes rapidely into the Staudinger product 6 . The hydrolytical cleavage of the trimethylsilyl group furnishes the tricyclic phosphorane 7 . The ³J_PH coupling in 3 is surprisingly large (51.6 Hz).     

Umwandlung von Bicyclo [3.2.0]hept-2-en-6-on in Cyclopentadienessigsäure-Derivate

Conversion of Bicyclo [3.2.0]hept-2-en-6-one into Cyclopentadienylacetic Acid Derivatives The reaction of a mixture of 4exo-bromobicyclo [3.2.0]hept-2-en-6-one ( 2 ) and -7-one ( 3 ) with O- or N-nucleophiles yielded cyclopentadien-5′-yl-acetates 4a–f or-acetamides 4g–h . Due to their rapid isomerization, the products 4 were not isolated, but some of them were demonstrated spectroscopically or captured in situ with maleimide as 10′-substituted norbornene derivatives 7 . The formation of 4 from 2/3 involves a fragmentation of the bond between the carbonyl and the bridge-head C-atom, induced by the attacking nucleophile and the leaving Br-ion and aided by the relief of the four-membered ring strain. Some of the isomerization products of 4 , i.e. the cyclopentadiene-1′-yl- and 2′-yl-acetyl derivatives were captured with maleimide as the 1′- and 8′-substituted norbornene-derivatives 8 and 9 . Two C-nucleophiles did not induce the fragmentation: sodium acetylacetonate substituted the Br-atom and sodium (diethoxyphosphoryl)ethoxycarbonylmethide condensed with the carbonyl group of 2/3 , yielding 11/12 and 13/14 , respectively.     

Inhaltsstoffe des Osmanthus-Absolues. 4. Mitteilung: Megastigma-5, 7 (E), 9-trien-4-on und Megastigma-5, 8 (E)-dien-4-on

Constituents of Osmanthus Absolute, 4th Communication. Megastigma-5, 7 (E), 9-triene-4-one and Megastigma-5, 8 (E)-diene-4-one In continuation of our communications on constituents of Osmanthus absolute, we now report on the occurrence of the two title compounds 1 and 2a in this natural substrate (0.01-0.02% each). Their structures were confirmed by synthesis starting from β-ionone via the common intermediate 4-oxo-β-ionol ( 9 ). Some further minor components bearing corresponding structural features are tabulated in view of possible biogenetic pathways leading to 1 or 2a , respectively. In order to clarify the olfactory behaviour, we also synthesized some analogous derivatives in the irone series, these substances being not yet found in nature.     

Über polycyclische 2-Alken-1-on—Guanidin-Kondensate

Guanidine reacts with 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-one to yield not only the dihydropyrimidine2 a ² and the aromatic compound3 a ², but also a bicyclic base, 2,4,6,8-tetraphenyl-2,8-dihydro-1H-pyrimido[1,2–a]pyrimidine (4). Action of 4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one on guanidine generates a 22-condensate, 7-methyl-4,5-diphenyl-4,4a,5,6,7,8,10,10a-octahydro-7,10a-methano-pyrimido[4,5–d]diazocine-2,9(1H, 3H)-diimine12 R besides the methylphenylpyrimidinamine3 b ². The structural formulae4 and12 are proved by NMR-spectra. The mass spectra and the mechanisms of the formation of4 and12 are also discussed.

Tautomeric properties, conformations and structure of N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-amino-3-penten-2-on

N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-amino-3-penten-2-on (C₁₁H₁₃NO₂) has been studied by X-ray analysis. It crystallizes the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁ with a=8.834(1), b=10.508(2), c=11.212(2) Å, V=1040.8(3) Å³, Z=4, D_c=1.22 g cm⁻³ and μ(MoK)=0.084 mm⁻¹. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to R=0.038 for 1373 reflections (I>2σ(I)). The title compound is photochromic and the molecule is not planar. Intramolecular hydrogen bonds occur between the pairs of atoms N(1) and O(1) [2.631(2) Å], and N(1) and O(2) [2.641(2) Å], the H atom essentially being bonded to the N atom. There is also a strong intermolecular O–HO hydrogen bonding [2.647(2) Å] between neighbouring molecules. Tautomeric properties and conformations of the title compound were investigated by semi-empirical quantum mechanical AM1 calculations and the results are compared with the X-ray results.     

Einwirkung von Schwefel und Ammoniak auf 1-Phenyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylphosphorinan-4-on

Zusammenfassung 1-Phenyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylphosphorinan-4-on (1) reagiert mit Schwefel bzw. Sauerstoff zum entsprechenden P-Sulfid bzw. bisher unbekannten P-Oxid. Obwohl beide Verbindungen Ketoncharakter aufweisen, reagieren sie mit Schwefel und NH₃ nicht zu ³-Thiazolinen. Die ³-Thiazolinen-Synthese gelingt aber durch Umsetzung des Bis-(1-phenyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-oxo-phosphorinan-4-on-3-yl)-disulfids mit einer Oxokomponente, H₂S und NH₃. Es wird eine verbesserte Methode zur Darstellung von1 angegeben. Neue Derivate von1 sowie des P-Sulfids bzw. P-Oxids von1 werden beschrieben.

1-Phenyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylphosphorinan-4-one (1) reacts with sulfur and oxygen to the corresponding P-sulfide and until now unknown P-oxide respectively. Although both the compounds react as a ketone, the simultaneous reaction with sulfur and ammonia will not give the corresponding ³-thiazolines. ³-thiazolines are formed on treating the bis-[1-phenyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-oxo-phosphorinan-4-one-3-yl]-disulfide with H₂S, NH₃ and an oxo compound. An improved method for the synthesis of1, new derivatives of1, the P-sulfide and of the P-oxygen compound are described.

Synthese von 5-Methyl-3-oxa-A-nor-5β-cholestan und 3-Oxa-Δ4-cholesten-2-on

2, 3-seco-Δ⁴-Cholestene-2, 3-dicarboxylic acid ( 5 ) was prepared in 30% yield from 2-hydroxymethylene-Δ⁴-cholestene-3-one ( 1 ) by ozonolysis under special conditions. Pyrolysis of the pure di-acid 5 gave A-nor-Δ³⁽⁵⁾-cholestene-2-one ( 6 ), the anhydride 2 and 5-methyl-3-oxa-A-nor-5β-cholestane-2-one ( 8 ). Pyrolysis of amorphous acidic material obtained by the ozonolysis of 1 yielded the enol-lactones 7 and 9 as additional products. LiA1H₄-reduction of the γ-lactone 8 gave the diol 10 , which was transformed into 5-methyl-3-oxa-A-nor-5β-cholestane ( 13 ) by treatment with tosyl chloride in pyridine.
