The last group of reactions uses ring opening of carbonyl or 1-hydroxyalkyl substituted cyclopropanes, which operate as a -synthons. d -Synthons, e.g. hydroxide or halides, yield 1,4-disubstituted products (E. Wenkert, 1970 A). (1-Hydroxyalkyl)- and (1-haloalkyl)-cyclopropanes are rearranged to homoallylic halides, e.g. in Julia s method of terpene synthesis (M. Julia, 1961, 1974 S.F. Brady, I968 J.P. McCormick, 1975). 

Synthesis. The synthesis of poly(dichlotophosphazene) [25034-79-17, (N=PCl2) (4), the patent polymer to over 300 macromolecules of types (1) and (2), is carried out via controlled, ring-opening polymerization of the corresponding cycHc trimer, (N=PCl2)3 [940-71 -6]. 

A drawback to the Durham method for the synthesis of polyacetylene is the necessity of elimination of a relatively large molecule during conversion. This can be overcome by the inclusion of strained rings into the precursor polymer stmcture. This technique was developed in the investigation of the ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of benzvalene as shown in equation 3 (31). 

The preparation of nylon resins from lactam precursors involves ring opening, which is facihtated by a controlled amount of water in the reaction mixture. The salt complex condenses internally to produce the polyamide (57). The synthesis of nylon-6 [25038-54-4] from S-caprolactam is as follows ... 

Other methods of generating a-aminoketones in situ are common, if somewhat less general than the methods already described. 2-Nitrovinylpyrrolidine, which is readily available, yields 2,3-bis(3-aminopropyl)pyrazine on reduction and this almost certainly involves ring opening of the intermediate enamine to an a-aminoketone which then dimerizes under the reaction conditions (Scheme 59) (78TL2217). Nitroethylene derivatives have also served as a-aminoketone precursors via ammonolysis of the derived epoxides at elevated temperatures (Scheme 60) (76S53). Condensation of 1,1-disubstituted hydrazine derivatives with a-nitro-/3-ethoxyethylene derivatives has been used in the synthesis of l,4-dialkylamino-l,4-dihydropyrazines (Scheme 61) (77S136). 

Small unsaturated rings are usually very reactive undergoing ring opening in a number of ways, and this characteristic has been utilized in heterocyclic synthesis. In their role as dienophiles or dipolarophiles, the initial cycloaddition is usually followed by a valence tautomerism resulting in a six-membered or larger ring system. Several examples exist, however, where this does not occur, and these are described below.

Isoxazoles are susceptible to attack by nucleophiles, the reactions involving displacement of a substituent, addition to the ring, or proton abstraction with subsequent ring-opening. Isoxazolium salts are even more susceptible to attack by a variety of nucleophiles, providing useful applications of the isoxazole nucleus in organic synthesis. Especially useful is the reductive cleavage of isoxazoles, which may be considered as masked 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds or enaminoketones. 

Perhaps the greatest utility of (36-39) (and many of their precursors, such as 41, 42 and 48) is as starting points for the synthesis of highly functionalized cyclohexanes. For example, (38) has been converted in five steps (overall yield 70-75%) to streptamine (57) the key step is selective ring-opening with hydrazine to give intermediate (56) (75AG(E)630).
