Few isothiazoles undergo simple cycloaddition reactions. 4-Nitroisothiazoles add to alkynes (see Section 4.17.7.4). With 5-thiones (84) and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, addition to both sulfur atoms leads to 1,3-dithioles (85) (77SST(4)339, 80H(14)785, 81H(16)156, 81H(16)595). Isothiazol-3-one 1-oxide and the corresponding 1,1-dioxide give normal adducts with cyclopentadiene and anthracene (80MI41700), and saccharin forms simple 1 1 or 1 2 adducts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (72IJC(B)881).

Dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (80) undergoes initial 1,2 cycloaddition with acyclic enamines to form cyclobutene intermediates which immediately decompose into acyclic dienaminodiesters (94,95). When an acyclic n/c-enediamine is used instead of a simple acyclic enamine, a dienediamino-diester is produced via a cyclobutene intermediate (95a). A cyclization reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate with an acyclic enaminoketone... 

The reaction of methyl propiolate (82) with acyclic enamines produces acyclic dienamines (100), as was the case with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, and the treatment of the pyrrolidine enamines of cycloheptanone, cyclooctanone, cycloundecanone, and cyclododecanone with methyl propiolate results in ring enlargement products (100,101). When the enamines of cyclohexanone are allowed to react with methyl propiolate, rather anomalous products are formed (100). The pyrrolidine enamine of cyclopentanone forms stable 1,2-cycloaddition adduct 83 with methyl propiolate (82). Adduct 83 rearranges to the simple alkylation product 84 upon standing at room temperature, and heating 83 to about 90° causes ring expansion to 85 (97,100). 

The synthesis of monocyclic thiepins from thiophene and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate is often accompanied by the loss of sulfur. In particular, in cases where room temperature is required for efficient rates of cycloaddition and rearrangement76 (see Section 2.1.3.3.), the desulfurization reaction proceeds rather quickly with the consequence that thiepin formation can be monitored by low temperature HNMR spectroscopy, but the products cannot be isolated.76 - 78 However, in the case of thiepin 1 where R1 = R2 = C02Me and R3 = H, refluxing toluene is necessary for the extrusion of sulfur.78... 

Occasionally, these thermally induced reactions give rise to complex mixtures of products and hence are not of any great preparative value. For example, 1-mcthylindolc with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in acetonitrile yields seven products including the 1-benzazepine 8 (14%), the 1-methyl derivatives of the cis- and /rwK-indolylacrylates 3. a [4 + 2] cycloadduct of the 1-benzazcpinc with the alkyne dicster (see Section 3.2.2.5.3.), and dimethyl l-mcthyl-2-(l-methylindol-3-yl)-2,3-dihydro-l //-l-benzazepinc-3,4-dicarboxylate (9).21 This last product, which is the major product if the cycloaddition is carried out in acetonitrile containing trace amounts of water,21 has been obtained earlier.143 but was incorrectly formulated. 

The diazepines 13 react with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to yield mixtures of the pyrazole 19 and the benzene derivatives 18. The reaction proceeds by cycloaddition to yield 14, followed by valence isomerization to the 1,2-diazonines 15, a further valence isomerization to 16, a Second cycloaddition to give 17 and, finally, fragmentation."... 

In numerous synthetic studies,9" 6 100 it has been demonstrated that porphyrins react at the chromophore periphery in cycloaddition reactions, rearrangements, conjugative additions and substitution reactions to yield interesting porphyrin derivatives. Thus, metal-free protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester reacts in Diels-Alder reactions108a b with dienophilcs like ethenetetra-carbonitrile and acetylenedicarboxylates at the diene structural parts to yield, according to the reaction conditions, the corresponding monoadducts 2 and 3 (see also Section 1.2.) and bisadducts 1 (see also Section 1.4.), respectively. 

Thiazolotriazines 636 (R = CO,Me) were prepared [84JCS(P1)2707] by cycloaddition of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate with triazine derivative 632. Derivatives of thiazolo[3,2-b][l,2,4]triazin-3,7-diones 637 have been formed (74JPR163) on reaction with aromatic aldehydes and diazonium salts to give 636 (R = Ar) and 638, respectively. Regioselective catalyzed... 

In another paper, the same authors investigated the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition on 2-(lH)-pyrazine scaffolds 72 and electron-rich azides, using Cu(0) and CUSO4 as pre-catalysts. To demonstrate the versatility of this approach, they reported the generation of different templates (73 in Scheme 25) as an application of cUck chemistry . They also investigated the Diels-Alder reaction of the so obtained triazoles with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD), under microwave irradiation. The latter reaction allowed obtaining various pyridinones in good yields (74 and 75 in Scheme 25) [57]. 

However, most of the reactions are reported to be slow, taking up to 12 h for complete conversion of the starting materials. A Diels-Alder reaction of the pyrazinone scaffold with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) [57] has been studied in view of investigating the swiftness of this cycloaddition-fragmentation protocol (Scheme 20). The authors investigated the reaction with DMAD (lOequiv) under microwave irradiation at an elevated temperature of 190 °C, using small amounts of ionic liquid (bmimPFe) in... 

Reinhoudt et al.53) have reported the first synthesis of a monocyclic thiepin stabilized by electronic effects of the substituents. This synthesis utilizes the idea described in Section 2.3.3. 3-Methyl-4-pyrrolidinothiophene (85a) was treated in deuteriochloroform at —30 °C with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. H-NMR monitoring of the reaction indicated that a [2 + 2]cycloaddition proceeded slowly at this temperature giving the 2-thiabicyclo[3.2.0]heptadiene (86a) which rearranged via ring opening of the cyclobutene moiety to the 4-pyrrolydinylthiepin (87a). At the... 

The combination of two successive [4+2] cycloadditions has already been described by Diels and Alder [la] for the reaction of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate with an excess of furan. A beautiful, more modern, example is the synthesis of pagodane (4-5) by Prinzbach [2], in which an intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction of 4-1 and 4-2 to give 4-3 is followed by an intramolecular cycloaddition. The obtained 4-4 is then transformed into 4-5 (Scheme 4.1). 

Dipolar cycloaddition reaction of thioisomilnchnones 204 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) furnished adducts 205, which underwent extrusion of sulfur to give 2-substituted-7-phenyl-l,8-dioxo-l//,8//-pyrido[l,2-f]pyrimidine-5,6-dicarboxylates 206 (Scheme 14) <20000L581>. 

The nitrogen atoms in ADC compounds are highly electrophilic. Nucleophilic attack on nitrogen is easy, and as with electrophilic acetylenes, such as dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, it seems likely that some cycloaddition reactions of ADC compounds with unsymmetrical substrates proceed via a stepwise mechanism. PTAD is a powerful electrophile, although TCNE is more reactive, and chlorosulfonyl isocyanate is more reactive still.58... 

Typically, the synthesis of block B involves the Diels-Alder reaction of 1,4-naphthoquinone with cyclopentadiene, followed by reduction and OH methylation to give 92 (Scheme 33). The next step involves a Ru-catalysed [2+2] cycloaddition of 92 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD), followed by epoxidation (MeLi, BuOOH) to give 94 as block B. 

An example of asymmetric synthesis involving cycloaddition of an azide to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate is depicted in Scheme 172. Thus, asymmetric auxiliary 1042 reacts with styrene and sodium azide to generate azide 1043 in 90% yield and 94% diastereomeric purity. The following reaction (Scheme 172) with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate converts azide 1043 into triazole 1044 in 75% yield. Finally, the bond with selenium is cleaved by treatment with triphenyltin hydride and AIBN to furnish triazole 1045 in 80% yield and preserved optical purity (94%) <2003AGE3131>. 

The cycloaddition reactions of [(thioacyl)methylene]thiadiazoles 83 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) under UV irradiation at room temperature gave the spiro[3/7-l,3,4-thiadiazoline-2,4 -477-thiopyrans] 84 in 50-60% yields (Equation 23) <2003EJ02480>. 

Imidazole nitrones 127 reacted with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to yield imidazo[l,5-fc]isoxazoles 128, which in the presence of base afforded imidazoles 129 <00TL5407>. Chiral imidazoline nitrone 130 participated in a [3+2] cycloaddition reaction with various dienophiles to furnish imidazoisoxazoles 131 <00SL967>. A convenient synthesis of AyvyV -trisubstituted ethylenediamine derivatives from 2-methyl-2-imidazoline has been reported <00SC3307>. Dehydrogenation of 1,3-di- and 1,2,3-trisubstituted imidazolidines afforded l//-4,5-dihydroimidazolium salts <00SC3369>... 

This route relies on 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions a series of dihydropyrrolizines 213 were synthesized by heating the proline derivatives 211 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) at 130-140 °C in the presence of acetic anhydride. Reaction between 211 and AczO provides the mesoionic oxazalone intermediate 212 which adds to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, giving a cycloadduct, which undergoes spontaneous decarboxylation leading to 213 (Scheme 50) <1998JME4744, 1977JME812>.
