Formal aza-Michael additions to tropone: Addition of diverse aryl- and alkylamines to tricarbonyl(tropone)iron and [(C7H7O)Fe(CO)3]BF4

A formal aza-Michael addition to tropone by way of tricarbonyl(tropone)iron and/or the tetrafluoroborate salt formed via protonation of the complex is reported. Tricarbonyl(tropone)iron smoothly undergoes the direct aza-Michael reaction with unhindered aliphatic amines under solvent free conditions in good yields. Meanwhile, the known cationic complex [(C₇H₇O)Fe(CO)₃]BF₄ (whose reaction with a small number of nucleophiles was previously reported) undergoes addition with an even broader array of amine nucleophiles. Finally, it was discovered that protecting the aza-Michael adduct as a carbamate was necessary for oxidative demetallation of the complex.

Chemistry of dioxine-annelated cycloheptatriene endoperoxides and their conversion into tropolone derivatives: an unusual non-benzenoid singlet oxygen source

The chemistry of two bicyclic endoperoxides, obtained by photooxygenation of 2,3-dihydro-7H-cyclohepta[1,4]dioxine and 2,3-dihydro-7H-cyclohepta[b][1,4]dioxin-7-one was investigated with the aim of synthesizing the respective tropolone derivatives. The reaction of these endoperoxides with base, thiourea and their thermolysis provided the desired tropolone derivatives in high yield. On the other hand, the thermolysis of the endoperoxide derived from 2,3-dihydro-7H-cyclohepta[b][1,4]dioxin-7-one underwent an unprecedented route and formed parent molecule and singlet oxygen instead of the expected troponoids. The formation mechanisms of all products are discussed.     

A novel construction of quino-fused tropone skeleton: first synthesis of 12H-benzo[4,5]cyclohepta[1,2-b]quinolin-12-one derivatives

In the present investigation, the incorporation of both quinoline moiety and tropone ring in a molecule frame work in fused form leading to a series of structurally novel and biologically intriguing quinoline/tropone hybrids 12H-benzo[4,5]cyclohepta[1,2-b]quinolin-12-one derivatives has been first achieved through a simple, and economical two-step procedure, involving the one-pot synthesis of (E)-2-(arylvinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acids followed by intramolecular Friedel–Crafts acylation reaction using polyphosphoric acid (PPA).     

Oxidation of some alkoxy-cycloheptatriene derivatives: unusual formation of furan and furanoids from cycloheptatrienes

The oxidation of some alkoxy tropone and tropone ketal derivatives with singlet oxygen and m-chloroperbenzoic acid was investigated. In most cases furan and furanoid derivatives were isolated. The structures of the formed products were determined by means of spectral data and the formation mechanism of these unusual products is discussed.     

Cyclisation of diferrocenylbutadiyne dicobalt hexacarbonyl mono-adduct to novel ferrocenotropones

Treatment of 1,4-diferrocenyl-1,3-butadiyne dicobalt hexacarbonyl complex (1) [CARN: 178388-65-3] with trifluoroacetic acid resulted in cyclisation with concomitant CO insertion to give the green 2,3-ferroceno-7-ferrocenyl-4,5-dehydrotropone dicobalt hexacarbonyl (2), which in turn was converted by trifluoroacetic acid to red 2,3-ferroceno-7-ferrocenyltropone (3). The first step implied the involvement of a second dicobalt hexacarbonyl complex as a CO source. The molecular structures of 2 and 3 were determined by single crystal X-ray analysis, and pairs of enantiomers with different conformations were observed in 3.     

Fluxional behavior of methyl-substituted tricarbonyl(tropone)iron complexes and their different reactivity

The compositions of regioisomeric mixtures of tricarbonyliron complexes of 2-methyltropone (1a,b), 3-methyltropone (2a,b) and 2,6-dimethyltropone (3a,b) are studied and compared with the results of ab initio computations. The structures, frontier orbitals, and population analysis are evaluated by means of density functional theory. The thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of regioisomerizations are determined using dynamic ¹H NMR technique. The influence of methyl-substituent(s) on the equilibrium ratio of regioisomers resulting from the haptotropic rearrangement is discussed. Significant differences in the reactivity of C-protonized methyl- and dimethyl-substituted tricarbonyl(tropone)iron complexes 4–6 in nucleophilic additions and corresponding O-trimethylsilylated complexes 7–9 in [3+2] cycloadditions are explained in terms of electronic and steric effects of the methyl group(s). Various hydroazulenone cycloadducts of tricarbonyl(η⁴-2,6-dimethyltropone)iron 3a,b have been prepared by stereoselective [3+2] cycloaddition with Fp-reagents 12–14 and characterized. Formerly proposed mechanism of [3+2] cycloaddition was approved.     

Theoretical studies on the protonation behavior of tropone and its metal complexes

Density functional theory calculations were carried out to investigate structures and stabilities of tropone and troponeiron complexes, (tropone)Fe(CO)₃, (tropone)Fe(CO)₂(PH₃) and (tropone)Fe(PH₃)₃, and their protonated species. The results show that the oxygen-protonated tropone is more stable than the carbon-protonated tropone. On the contrary, in the troponeiron complexes, the carbon protonated species are more stable than the oxygen protonated species. In the neutral and oxygen-protonated complexes, the tropone and oxygen-protonated tropone ligands are η⁴-coordinated. In the carbon-protonated complexes, the carbon-protonated tropone ligand is η⁵-coordinated. The results also show that the metal shift for complexes containing phosphine ligands is more difficult than that for those containing carbonyl ligands. For the neutral methyl-substituted troponeiron complexes, steric effect was found to play a key role in determining the relative stability of the regioisomers. For their protonated species, the electron-donating properties of the methyl substituent(s) were found to be important in determining the relative stability among the different regioiosmers.
