The synthesis of the following compounds and reaction products thereof are described: endo, endo-2,5-dihydroxy-9-oxabicyclo[4.2.1]nonane ( 3–5 ), epimeric 2,6-dihydroxy-9-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes (endo, endo: 6–8 , exo, exo: 29–32 , and endo, exo: 43–45 ), and endo, exo 2,7-dihydroxy-9-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane ( 46–50 ).     

Synthesis, Structure, and Derivatives of endo-4-Aminomethyltetracyclo[6.2.1.13,6.02,7]dodec-9-ene

Synthesis was performed and structure studied of endo-4-cyanotetracyclo[6.2.1.1^3,6.0^2,7]dodec-9-ene prepared by reaction of a stereochemically uniform endo-5-cyanobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene with cyclopentadiene. By analysis of potential energy surface (PES) for reactions of endo-5-cyanobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene and the respective exo-stereoisomer with cyclopentadiene (in B3LYP/6-31G(d) approximation) the endo,exo-junction and anti-orientation of the methylene bridges in the bicyclic fragments of the adducts were shown to be preferable. Reduction of the tetracyclic nitrile with lithium aluminum hydride yielded endo-4-aminomethyltetracyclo-[6.2.1.1^3,6.0^2,7]dodec-9-ene whose geometry and conformational characteristics were studied by means of molecular mechanics method. Products were obtained from reactions of the tetracyclic amine with p-toluene-, p-chloro-benzene-, p-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chlorides, p-nitrobenzoyl chloride, succinic anhydride, mesityl and p-toluene-sulfonyl isocyanates, phenyl, p-toluenesulfonyl, and benzoyl isothiocyanates, p-nitrophenyloxirane, and N-(2,3-epoxypropyl)carbazole. A series of the amine derivatives was epoxidized with perphtahlic acid. The structure of compounds synthesized was confirmed by analysis of their IR spectra, ¹H, ¹³C, and two-dimensional NMR spectra, and additionally by calculation of the chemical shifts in ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra by procedures GIAO and CSGT in PBE1PBE/6-31G^## approximation.     

An efficient synthesis of endo,exo-furofuranone derivatives

The ring openings of 1-acetyl-4-phenyl-3-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane afforded alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone that underwent a novel diazo-transfer reaction, followed by C-H insertion, to provide a series of endo,exo-furofuranone analogues.
