Abstract: | Summary Oxidation of the (E) and (Z) isomers of 2-arylidene-1-indanones (1) and 2-arylidene-1-benzosuberones (4) by alkaline hydrogen peroxide (methodi) afforded the spiroepoxidestrans-2a–g andtrans-5a–g from both isomers as sole products in high yields. On the other hand, dimethyldioxirane epoxidation(methodii) of the (E) isomers1a–g and4a–g gave the correspondingtrans spiroepoxides in good yields, whereas the (Z) isomers1a,c,e and4a,c,e led to thecis spiroepoxides in moderate yields. Dimethyldioxirane oxidation (methodii) of (Z)-1c and (Z)-4c,e gave diones3c and6c,e as by-products as well. Epoxidation of (Z)-1a,c,e and (Z)-4a,c,e bym-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (methodiii) resulted inca. 6:1 mixtures ofcis-2a,c,e andtrans-2a,c,e orcis-5a,c,e andtrans-5a,c,e spiroepoxides.Dedicated to Prof.W. Fleischhacker on the occasion of his 65th birthday |
