Abstract: | Of the two previously described 2,4,6,8-tetrabromo-cyclooctane-1,5-diones, the higher melting β-isomer, mp. 226°, was treated with sodium borohydride to give: (1) by a double reduction and an intramolecular SN2-reaction two epimeric alcohols, namely the 2-exo-hydroxy- ( 6 ) and 2-endo-hydroxy- ( 7 ) isomers of 3-exo,5-exo,7-endo-tribromo-9-oxa-bicyclo4.2.1]nonane, and (2) by a single step reduction a hemiketal, 1-hydroxy-2-exo,4-exo,6-endo,8-endo-tetrabromo-9-oxa-bicyclo3.3.1]nonane ( 8 ). The structures of these three hydroxy-compounds ( 6, 7 and 8 ) were derived from their properties, especially from complete analyses of their NMR.-spectra, which led to deductions of all configurations and conformations. Of special interest is the preferred existence of the 9-oxa-bicyclo3.3.1]norane derivative 8 in a chair-chair conformation. The derivation of the configurations of the three hydroxy-compounds 6, 7 and 8 is tantamount to establishing the 2,4-cis, 4,6-trans, 6,8-cis-configuration ( 5 ) of the β-isomer of 2,4,6,8-tetrabromocyclooctane-1,5-dione, mp. 226°. |
