Abstract: | The acid-catalysed rearrangement of the cyclohex-2-en-1-ols 15 , d3- 15 , 16 , 17 and 19 , the cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ols 20 and 21 , and also the allyl alcohols 22 and 23 (Scheme 3), using 98-percent sulfuric acid/acetic anhydride 1:99 at room temperature, was investigated. From the rearrangement of 4-allyl-4-phenyl-cyclohex-2-en-1-ol ( 15 ), with reaction times greater than 2 hours a single product is obtained, 4-allyl-biphenyl ( 50 ) in 33% yield (Scheme 9). With reaction times below 2 hours the acetate 53 from 15 was isolated, and this could be converted into 50 . The reaction of 2′,3′,3′-d3-15 in Ac2O/H2SO4 lead to 1′,1′,2′-d3-50 (Scheme 11). The rearrangement of 4-allyl-4-methyl-cyclohex-2-en-1-ol (16) (Scheme 14) yielded 39% of the corresponding acetate 60 and 30% of 4-allyl-toluene ( 6 ), which also resulted by a rearrangement of 60 under the reaction conditions. These rearrangements are all [3s,4s]-sigmatropic reactions, which proceed via the cyclohexenyl cation a (Scheme 12, R = C6H5, CH3). In Ac2O/H2SO4 the allyl-cyclohexadienes primarely formed subsequently undergo dehydrogenation to yield the benzene derivatives 6 , 50 and d3- 50 . From the rearrangement of 4,4-diphenyl-cyclohex-2-en-1-ol ( 19 ) at 0° a reaction mixture is obtained which consists of the acetate 55 , 2,3-diphenyl-cyclohexa-1,4-diene ( 57 ) and o-terphenyl ( 56 ) (Scheme 10). Both 55 and 57 are converted under the reaction conditions to o-terphenyl ( 56 ). No 4-(1′-methylallyl)-biphenyl is obtained from the rearrangement of 4-crotyl-4-phenyl-cyclohex-2-en-1-ol ( 17 ). In this case, apart from the corresponding acetate 64 , a single product 5-(1′-acetoxyethyl)-1-phenyl-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene ( 65 ) (Scheme 16) was obtained; under the reaction conditions the acetate 64 rearranges to 65 . The rearrangement of 4-allyl-4-phenyl-cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ol ( 20 ) gives, as expected, not only 4-allyl-biphenyl ( 50 ) but also 2- and 3-allyl-biphenyl ( 51 and 52 ) and biphenyl (Scheme 13). 4-Benzyl-4-methyl-cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ol (syn- and anti- 21 ) gave in Ac2O/H2SO4 at 10° as rearrangement products 93% of 2-benzyltoluene ( 97 ) and 7% of 4-benzyl-toluene ( 98 ) (Scheme 21). Hence [1,4]-rearrangements in cyclohexadienyl cations, seems to occur only to a limited extent. The alicyclic alcohols 22 and 23 (Scheme 18) gave, in Ac2O/H2SO4, as main product the corresponding acetates 73 and 75 , as well as small amounts of olefins 74 and 76 formed by dehydration i.e. [3,4]-rearrangements occur in these systems. Also no [3,4]-rearrangements were observed in solvents reactions of either 4,4-dimethyl-hepta-1, 6-dien-3-yl tosulate (79; see Scheme 19) or its corresponding alcohol 24. |
