The oxa-Pictet-Spengler reaction has been used with success to prepare dihydrofurano[2,3-c]pyrans and isochromans from l-(3-furyl)alkan-2-ols and 2-(3 ,4 -dihydroxy)phenylethanol, respectively. Furanyl alcohol 32 reacted with isobutyraldehyde 33 in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid to give the corresponding CI5-5,7-diisopropyl 4,5-dihydro-7H-furano[2,3-c]pyran 34 in good yield. ... 

A mixture consisting of 4 grams of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4,4-dimethyl-7-methoxy-isochromane-dione-(1,3) (MP 95° to 97°C), 2.53 grams of 4-aminosulfonyl-phenyl-(2)-ethylamine and 150 ml of xylene was heated for 2 hours at its boiling point in an apparatus provided with a water separator. Thereafter, the reaction mixture was allowed to cool and was then vacuum-filtered, and the filter cake was recrystallized from n-propanoi in the presence of activated charcoal. 2.9 grams (58% of theory) of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4,4-dimethyl-2-(p-amino-sulfonylphenyl-(2)-ethyl]-7-methoxy-isoquinolinedione-(1,3), MP 203° to 205°C, of the formula below were obtained. 

Nanaomycin A 103 and deoxyfrenolicin 108 are members of a group of naphthoquinone antibiotics based on the isochroman skeleton. The therapeutic potential of these natural products has attracted considerable attention, and different approaches towards their synthesis have been reported [65,66]. The key step in the total synthesis of racemic nanaomycin A 103 is the chemo-and regioselective benzannulation reaction of carbene complex 101 and allylacety-lene 100 to give allyl-substituted naphthoquinone 102 after oxidative workup in 52% yield [65] (Scheme 47). The allyl functionality is crucial for a subsequent intramolecular alkoxycarbonylation to build up the isochroman structure. However, modest yields and the long sequence required to introduce the...

Enediynes are of interest because of their ability to cleave DNA. The 10-membered oxadiyne (5) cycloaromatises to the isochroman (6) <96TL2433> and a biradical intermediate is proposed to account for the formation of an isochroman from an acyclic enediyne <96TL5397>. 

Trifluoromethylbenzocyclobutenols yield isochroman-l-ols on treatment with aromatic aldehydes and LTMP and hence serve as laterally-lithiated 2-methyltrifluoromcthyl-acetophenone <96SL57>. 

Two syntheses of hongconin (18), a naturally occurring isochroman-4-one which exhibits antianginal activity, have been described. One utilises the annulation of phthalide unit to optically pure dihydropyran-3-ones <96JOC455>, whilst a similar Michael addition to the bicyclic pyranone levo ucosenone and subsequent enolate methylation are essentials of the second route <96JOC459>. 

Shah et al. (1994) have studied the preparation of a class of compounds called Indans, by cross-dimerization of AMS with amylenes, using an ion-exchange resin and acid-treated clay catalysts (Eqns. (12) and (13)). Indans can be subsequently converted, e.g. by acetylation, into perfumric compounds having mu.sk odour. For example, 1,1,2,3,3-pentamethylindan, the product obtained by cross-dimerization of AMS and wo-amylene (Eqn. (12)), can be reacted with propylene oxide and /7 ra-formaldehyde to give an indan type isochroman musk compound, 6-oxa-l,l,2,3,3,8-hexamethyl-2,3,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-lH-benz(f)-indene, sold as Galaxolide commercially. 

As with five-membered heterocycles, phosphorus pentasulfide may replace a ring oxygen atom by sulfur, or it may effect replacement in an acyclic precursor and then bring about cyclization. Thus isochroman-l-one (99) is converted into thioisochroman-l-thione (100) under the same conditions a 3-arylisocoumarin( 101) produces a 3-ary 1-1-thioisocoumarin (102) only, with no replacement of the ring oxygen atom.122 A typical example of thiation, followed by cyclization, is the formation of 2-alkyl- or 2-aryl-3,l-benzo-thiazine-4-thiones (103) from /V-acylanthranilic acid esters (104) by treatment with phosphorus pentasulfide in boiling xylene.122... 

A tandem enolate-arylation-allylic cyclisation, in which an essential z-butyldimethylsilyl ether protecting group delays the cyclisation step until the Pd-catalysed arylation is complete, enables 1-vinyl-l//-[2]benzopyrans 54 to be prepared from 2-bromobenzaldehyde (Scheme 32) <00CC1675>. 4-Substituted isochromans 55 are formed from aldehydes by a Pd-catalysed termolecular queuing cascade. The sequence involves cyclisation of an aryl iodide onto a proximate alkyne followed by an allene insertion. Transmetallation with indium then allows addition to the aldehyde (Scheme 33) . 

Despite the discovery of ERcx selective SERMs and their subsequent use as chemical tools to evaluate the pharmacological significance of this receptor sub-type, the respective roles that ERcx and ER(3 play in regulating tissue selectivity is not yet clear. As a result, the identification of non-receptor subtype selective SERMs remains of considerable interest. Along these lines, isochroman 26 and... 

Irradiation in air of the deoxycholic acid (DCA, 157) complex of indanone leads to oxidation of both the steroid and the guest, yielding 5- 3-hydroxy-DCA, 158, and optically active 3-hydroxyindanone (241). In the presence of air, irradiation of the DCA clathrates of isochromane, 159, and indene, 161, leads to reaction with oxidation of the host and of the allylic position of the guest to a keto group (e.g., 159 — 160 and 161 — 162).The detailed mechanisms of these oxidations remain to be elucidated. 

A similar intramolecular coupling is observed for isochroman analogs of 1-benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (Scheme 121) [234].
