Tricyclo [3.3.2.03,7]decan (9-Homo-nor-adamantan) Synthese und Umwandlungen

Tricyclo[3.3.2.0^3,7]decane (9-Homo-nor-adamantane). Synthesis and Transformations A synthesis of tricyclo [3.3.2.0^3,7]decane (=9-homo-nor-adamantane; 1 ), which belongs to the adamantaneland, a family of nineteen isomeric C₁₀H₁₆ hydrocarbons, is described, as well as derivatives thereof. Treatment of protoadamantan-5endo-ol (11) with either thionyl chloride or phosphorus pentachloride yielded under rearrangement the chloride 18 , and solvolysis of the 5endo-chloro-protoadamantane (16) led to the acetate 26, 18 and 26 having both the tricyclo [3.3.2.0^3,7]decane skeleton. Subsequent transformations gave the title compound 1 as well as the corresponding olefin 8 .

Synthesen und Charakterisierung von [Ni(tBuAs)6] und [Pd(tBuAs)6]

Syntheses and Characterization of [Ni(tBuAs)₆] and [Pd(tBuAs)₆] The reduction of tBuAsCl₂ with magnesium in the presence of NiCl₂ or PdCl₂ yields the complexes [Ni(tBuAs)₆] ( 2 ) and [Pd(tBuAs)₆] ( 3 ). The structure of ( 2 ) was determined by X-ray single crystal structure analysis. ( 2 ) consists of the sixmembered ring (tBuAs)₆ in chair conformation with the nickel atom in the center of this ring.     

Synthesen und Kristallstrukturanalysen von [SbI3(SbMe3)(THF)]2 und [Li(THF)4]2[Bi2Cl8(THF)2]

Syntheses and Crystal Structure Analyses of [SbI₃(SbMe₃)(THF)]₂ and [Li(THF)₄]₂[Bi₂Cl₈(THF)₂] The reaction of Me₃Sb with SbI₃ in tetrahydrofuran (THF) gives [SbI₃(SbMe₃)(THF)]₂ ( 1 ). [Li(THF)₄]₂[Bi₂Cl₈(THF)₂] ( 2 ) is formed by reaction of LiCl and BiCl₃ in tetrahydrofuran. The structures of ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) have been determined by X-ray diffractometry. Both structures contain centrosymmetric dimers with the geometry of edge sharing octahedra.     

The Novel Adamantane Isomer Tricyclo[4.4.0.03,9]decane (2-Homotwistbrendane)

Two synthetic approaches to the novel C₁₀H₁₆ hydrocarbon tricyclo[4.4.0.0^3,9]decane ( 1 ; 2-homotwistbrendane), one of the 19 members of the adamantaneland, and its Lewis-acid-catalyzed rearrangement are described. One route starts from tricyclo[4.3.0.0^3,8]nonan-2-one ( 2 ; 2-twistbrendanone). The missing tenth C-atom is introduced by ring enlargement (Tiffeneau-Demjanov method). Starting from methyl 8,9,10-trinorborn-5-ene-2-endo-carboxylate ( 8 ), ring enlargement by one C-atom, regio- and stereoselective introduction of a C₁ unit to a 2-endo,6-endo-disubstituted bicyclo[3.2.1]octane, and ring closure by acyloin condensation are the key steps in the second approach.     

Attempted Synthesis of Tricyclo[3.3.2.024]DEC-2(4)-ENE

The synthesis of tricyclo[3.3.2.0^2,4]-dec-2(4)-ene (3) has been attempted using a route analogous to those previously developed for 1 and 2. Complications were encountered in the synthesis. The conformational problems of the larger polycyclic structures in the synthesis of 3 must be more difficult to overcome than the increased angle strain of the smaller rings when 1 or 2 are synthesized.     

Stereoselektive Synthesen von substituierten Tricarbonyl[tris(methylen)methan]eisen(0)-Komplexen

Stereoselective Syntheses of Substituted Tricarbonyl[tris(methylen)methan]iron(0) Complexes The complexes 3 , 9 , 10 , 22 , and 23 with one, two, and three Me substituents at the tris(methylen)methane moiety have been synthesized from the (acyloxy-1,3-diene)(tricarbonyl)iron(0) complexes 1 , 4 , 5 , 20 , and 21 , respectively, by ionic hydrogenation with BF₃ and Et₃SiH at ?78° in CH₂C1₂. These reductions are completely stereoselective, and their course can be predicted by assuming a dominant stereoelectronic control of the reaction. Formation of the carbocationic intermediates 11 from 4 and 12 from 5 , e.g., takes place only if the dissociating O? C bond is antiperiplanar to the donor C(β)? Fe bond. Fast H-transfer then converts the intermediate 11 to 9 and 12 to 10 . The configurations of 17 and 20 can be deduced from the structure of 22 and those of 18 and 21 from that of 23 . An X-ray structure determination of (1R,4S)camphanoate (?)- 13 derived from alcohol (?)- 7 confirms the configuration of 5 deduced above, The structures of the complexes 9 and 10 , 22 and 23 were determined by their unique NMR spectra. The diastereoisomeric complexes 6 and 7 have been synthesized from aldehyde 8 with MeMgI, the diastereoisomers 17 and 18 analogously from 16 or from methyl ketone 19 by reduction with LiAlH₄. Optically active starting materials (+)- 1 , (?)- 13 , (+)- 20 , and (+)- 21 gave, by ionic hydrogenation, the complexes (?)-(3R)- 3 , (+)-(2S,4S)- 10 , (?)-(R,R, S)- 22 , and (?)-(R,R,R)- 23 respectively, with known absolute configurations.     

Tricyclo[4.2.2.22,5] dodecane and Tricyclo [4.2.2.12,5]undecane. Preliminary communication

A synthesis of tricyclo [4.2.2.2^2,5]dodecane ( 19 ), a novel tricyclic C₁₂H₂₀ compound, is described. The key intermediate ketone 13 was prepared either from the C₁₀-photodimer 1 of cyclopentadienone or the C₁₁-cycloaddition products 11 and 12 . 13 was also transformed to tricyclo [4.2.2.1^2,5]undecane ( 8 ).     

Neue Synthesen von Pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazinen

Two new syntheses of pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazines are reported: (a) Addition of acetyl isocyanate to 5-amino-3-methyl-pyrazole followed by hydrolysis yields N-(3-methyl-5-pyrazolyl)-urea ( 15 ), which on cyclisation with triethyl orthoacetate gives 2-hydroxy-4,7-dimethylpyrazolo[1, 5-a]-s-triazine ( 16 ). (b) Condensation of aminoguanidine with β-oxo-nitriles affords 1-amidino-5-aminopyrazoles 18 . These are cyclised to pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazines 19--21 by reaction with orthoesters, acetic-formic anhydride, phenylisocyanide dichloride, dimethyl oxalate, N, N′-carbonyldiimidazole, and N, N′-thiocarbonyldiimidazole. The 4-amino group in 19 is converted by standard procedures to OH, SH, SCH₃, Cl and NRR′. Reaction of pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazines 30 with electrophiles leads to compounds substituted at position 8, e.g. 32a--e .     

Synthese und Geruch von Tricyclo[6.2.2.02, 7]dodecan-Derivaten

Summary The acetale-ketone9 was synthesized as precursor for the preparation of -santalol derivatives posessing a bicyclo[2.2.2]octane nucleus. After methylenation of the keto-group the subsequent acidic hydrolysis of the acetal leads via a Prins reaction of the liberated aldehyde with the methylene group to tricyclo[6.2.2.0^{2, 7}]dodecane derivatives. Their olfactory properties are described.

     

Tricyclo[2.1.0.01,3]pentane

The reaction of 1,1-dibromo-2,3-bis(chloromethyl)cyclopropane with methyllithium leads initially to ring closure to 1-bromo-2-chloromethylbicyclo[1.1.0]butane. Further reaction leads to an unstable compound which reacts with phenylthiol to give 2-vinyl-1-cyclopropyl phenyl sulfide and undergoes thermal rearrangement at ∼ -50°C to give cyclopentadiene. Strong evidence is presented which suggests that tricyclo[2.1.0.01,3]pentane may be the intermediate.     

Synthesen und Untersuchungen von [Oxazolo[2,3-a]isoindol-9b(2H)-yl]phosphonaten und -phosphinaten: Eine neue Klasse von Heterocyclen

Syntheses and Investigations of [Oxazolo[2,3-a]isoindol-9b(2H)-yl]phosphonates and -phosphinates: a New Class of Heterocycles We attempted to synthesize diethyl (1-methyl-2-phthalimidoethyl)phosphonate ( 14a ) in a Michaelis-Becker reaction using diethyl sodiophosphonate ( 13 ) and the tosylate 12a of (2-hydroxypropyl)phthalimide as starting materials. Instead of TsO substitution in 12a by the nucleophile 13 , the carbonyl C-atom of the phthalimido moiety was attacked by 13 , followed by an intramolecular nucleophilic substitution at C(2) of the side chain leading to the (oxazolo[2,3-a]isoindolyl)phosphonate 15a (Scheme 1). Similarly, 12a and N-(2-bromoethyl)phthalimide ( 12b ) reacted with butyl (benzene)sodiophosphinate ( 18 ) to the (oxazolo[2,3-a]isoindolyl)(phenyl)phosphinates 20a and 20b , respectively (Scheme 2). The attempt to synthesize enantiomerically pure 2-substituted (2-phthalimidoethyl)phosphonates 27 starting from L -α-amino-acids failed, too (Scheme 3): the main products of the reaction of the N,N-phthaloyl-O¹-tosyl-L -aminoalcohols 25a–d with 13 were the 3-substituted (oxazolo[2,3-a]isoindolyl)-phosphonates 26a–d , the desired 27b and 27c being observed as by-products in the ³¹P-NMR spectrum.     

The Adamantane Rearrangement of Tricyclo[4.2.2.01,5]decane to Tricyclo[5.3.0.04,8]decane

Regioselective generation of the C(2)-carbocation a of tricyclo[4.2.2.0^1,5]decane ( 1 ) by treatment of both corresponding epimeric alcohols 5 and 6 with BF₃ and trapping the rearranged tricyclo[5.3.0.0^4,8]decan-7-yl carbocation b with Et₃SiH as hydride-ion donor (ionic hydrogenation) gives the corresponding hydrocarbon 3 as sole product in almost quantitative yield. The latter is a known intermediate in the Lewis-acid-catalyzed rearrangement of 1 to adamantane ( 4 ).     

Synthesis of Tricyclo[4.4.0.02,7]decane Derivatives from Tricyclo[4.1.0.02,7]heptane Precursors

Russian Journal of Organic Chemistry - Tricyclo[4.1.0.02,7]heptane and 1-phenyltricyclo[4.1.0.02,7]heptane reacted with 2,3-bis(benzenesulfonyl)propene in boiling toluene (20–24 h) in the...     

Synthesen von 4-Amino-thieno[2,3—b]pyridinen

The Cyclization of 2-(1,1-dicyanovinylamino)-thiophenes2 by treatment with AlCl₃ yield 4-amino-5-cyano-thieno[2,3-b]pyridines3. 2-(1-acylvinyl-amino)-3-cyano-thiophenes7, obtainable from 2-amino-3-cyano-thiophenes and -diketones, react in the presence of AlCl₃ to form 4-acylamino-thieno[2,3-b] pyridines8. This reaction is connected with the transfer of the acyl group from C- to the N-atom. 4-Amino-5-cyano-thieno[2,3-b]pyridones-(6)11 are synthesized from 2-amino-3-cyano-thiophenes and ethyl cyano acetate in the presence of sodium ethoxide.
