Five-membered rings substituents

Much more recently, and with the advantage of sophisticated NMR techniques that have become available since the early 1970s, it has been shown that the spiro-3i/-pyrazole structure for 29a is incorrect. It is known that the outcome of diazocyclopentadiene addition to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate is dependent upon the five-membered ring substituents In the case at hand, tetraphenyldiazocyclopentadiene adds to the alkyne to give 29a as a labile product that rearranges under the reaction conditions to the 3H-indazole 30a (Scheme 3) 1,3-di-r-butyldiazocyclopentadiene behaves similarly l Thus in the formation of 31a at least, the spiropyrazole 29a is not the substrate and one must question the nature of the educt (29 versus 30) employed in cycloproparene synthesis by the spiro-3i/-pyrazole route. Nonetheless, there can be little doubt that spirocycle 29d is the substrate employed by Mataka and coworkers because, upon thermolysis, the corresponding indazole 30d was isolated. What must be noted here is that the thermal reaction did not provide any of the cyclopropa[/]phenanthrene 31d, but neither did independent photolysis of the isolable indazole 30d in benzene solution a 9,10-disubstituted phenanthrene is formed from diradical interaction with the solvent (equation 7). 

When the pyridinium salt carries an a-alkyl group, as in 80, it is believed that reaction with the phosphorus halide proceeds first at that carbon to give 81, ring closure subsequently producing 82 (Scheme 11). It should be noted that in the former sequence (Scheme 10), the two five-membered ring substituents are necessarily identical.

As viewed m the drawing a 120° counterclockwise rotation of C 4 places its hydroxyl group m the proper position At the same time this rotation moves the CH2OH group to a position such that it will become a substituent that is up on the five membered ring The hydrogen at C 4 then will be down m the furanose form... 

The reactivities of the isoxazoles are compared with those of benzene and some five-membered ring heterocycles in Table 7. Isoxazole is more reactive than benzene (by 4.3 log units) and isothiazole (0.8) and is less reactive than 1-methylpyrazole, furan, thiophene and 1-methylpyrrole. A 5-methyl substituent activates the nucleus more than does a... 

The bicyclic compound 8.17 also serves as a source of the five-membered ring 8.20 upon reduction with SbPhs. In contrast to the related S or Se systems, 8.11a and 8.11b, both Cl substituents are attached covalently to Te in 8.20. Reaction of 8.20 with an excess of AsFs in SO2 produces the eight-membered cyclic [Tc2S2N4] dication, which exhibits a Te-Te bond length of 2.88 A (cf. 2.70 A for a Te-Te single bond) and no transannular S S bonding J... 

Tertiary pyrrolines (49, = 1) and piperideines (49, = 2) (if R = H and the enamine can exist in the monomeric form or if R = aryl) evidently possess an endocyclic -double bond (79,155,156). The stretching frequency of the double bond can be lowered to 1620-1635 cm by conjugation with an aromatic substituent. The double bond of an analogous compound with aliphatic substituents in position 2 may occupy either the endo or the exo position. Lukes and co-workers (157) have shown that the majority of the five-membered-ring compounds, traditionally formulated with the double bond in a position, possess the structure of 2-alkylidene derivatives (50) with an exocyclic double bond, infrared absorption at 1627 cm . Only the 1,2-dimethyl derivative (51) is actually a J -pyrroline, absorbing at 1632 cm . For comparison, l,3,3-trimethyl-2-methylene pyrrolidine (52) with an unambiguous exocyclic double bond has been prepared (54).

The problem of applying the Hammett equation to five-membered ring systems has been extensively treated by Imoto and co-workers. All the problems discussed in the preceding section naturally recur the possible orientations not involving a vicinal relation between substituent and side-chain are ... 

The heterocycles have been arranged in the following sequence six-membered rings (aza- and polyaza-benzenes, aza- and polyaza-naphthalenes, etc.) followed by five-membered rings. Derivatives are arranged in alphabetical order according to the substituents. 

The influence of substituents R in the five-membered ring of 27 on the position of the tautomeric equilibria is illustrated by the data collected in Table IV. 

The 0x0 formulations 143 and 144 (X, Y, Z N or CH) are supported for this type of compound by infrared and ultraviolet spectral data. With certain substituents in the five-membered ring, forms of type 145 apparently become important/ and structure 146 is postulated to predominate on the basis of ultraviolet evidence. Com-... 

To account for the course of this reaction theoretical calculations of the coordination of ketomalonate 37 to copper(II) and zinc(II) have revealed that the six-membered ring system is slightly more stable than the five-membered ring system (Scheme 4.30). The coordination of 37 to catalyst (l )-39 shows that the six-membered intermediate is C2-symmetric with no obvious face-shielding of the carbonyl functionality (top), while for the five-membered intermediate (bottom) the carbonyl is shielded by the phenyl substituent. Calculations of the transition-state energy for the reaction of the two intermediates with 1,3-cyclohexadiene leads to the lowest energy for the five-membered intermediate this approach is in agreement with the experimental results [45]. 

Cycloadditions of isocyanates and their derivatives with vinyiaziridines were first reported by Alper and coworkers. From their previous studies of cydoadditions to vinylepoxides or alkylaziridines, they investigated cydoadditions to vinyiaziridines and found that such reactions with isocyanates, carbodiimides, or isothiocyanates in the presence of catalytic amounts of Pd(OAc)2 (2 mol%) and PPh3 (10 mol%) at room temperature afforded five-membered ring products 249 in 34—97% yields (Scheme 2.61) [91]. When an aziridine 247 possessing an alkyl substituent at the... 

This coordination causes a cyclic five-membered ring transition state and effects an attack cis to the substituent in the 3-position. 

With certain substituents, such as methoxy150 or (substituted) phenyl53 functions, in the allylie position the reaction outcome completely changes, giving rise to predominant or exclusive formation of five-membered ring products via a preceding 2-aza-Cope rearrangement of the initially formed A -acyliminium ion. These substituents clearly stabilize the intermediary carbo-cation 3.
