Ring systems reactions

A somewhat different scheme is used to gain entry to the alternate symmetrical 1,3,4-thiadiazole ring system. Reaction of thiosemicarbazide with isovaleric acid affords the ring system (217) in one step. The reaction may be rationalized by positing acylation to intermediate 216 as the first step. Sulfonylation of the amino group of 217 with p-methoxybenzenesulfonyl chloride affords the oral... 

Two approaches have been applied for the synthesis of imidazo[2,l + thia/,ole ring systems. Reaction of 2-mercapto-benzimidazole with perfluoro-2-methylpent-2-ene in the presence of triethylamine gave compound 419 (Equation 192), and cyclocondensation of 2-imidazolidinethione with the alkynyl(phenyl)iodonium salt 420 afforded product 421 (Equation 193) <2001RCB1446, 2003JCM715>. 

All of the synthetic routes reviewed so far have primarily involved the use of sulfur as a nucleophile. Sulfur can also act as an electrophile in the formation of precursors of the benzothiazine ring system. Reaction of sulfenyl chloride with ketones gives / -keto sulfides. The acetophenone adduct 90 has been cyclized with stannous chloride and hydrogen chloride in acetic acid to give 3-phenyl-6-chloro-2H-1,4-benzothiazine (91).135... 

A synthetically useful example of this process is the conversion of 117 to 120, which involves a 1,2-alkyl shift, and was part of Hwu s synthesis of (-)-solavetivone. 38 jhe alkyl fragment is actually part of the bicyclic ling system, one arm of the bicyclo[4.4.0]decane ring system. Reaction of the OH unit with the Lewis acid resulted in formation of the tertiary cation 118, which was followed by a 1,2-alkyls shift to give 119, where the new cation is stabilized by the adjacent silicon of the trimethylsilyl group. 39 Loss of the trimethylsilyl group from 119 gives spiran (120). 

Cycloalkenes These compounds yield even more distinct M+ ions than do their saturated cycloalkane analogs. The RDA reaction is the signature of the cyclohexene-containing ring system [reactions (6.38) and (6.39)]. 

Figure 5-28. Reaction query for Example 2 "R indicates that the bond must be part of a ring system, and "53 represents an atom with three non-hydrogen attachments. The Chiral" flag is necessary to retrieve only molecules with the identical absolute stereoconfiguration.

The method is incorporated into the CORA (Classification of Organic Reactions for Analysis) system [Sf Here, wc want to illustrate the merits of this approach by an example of its application to a specific problem, the prediction of the regioselec-tivity of a ring closure reaction. This is detailed in the following tutorial. 

One of the hits found in the Chem Inform reaction database is shown in the window for reaction substructure searches in Figure 10.3-55. It fits the synthesis problem perfectly, since in the synthesis direction it forms the coumarin ring system directly, in one step. 

This reaction applies to many i,2 diketones, and is termed the Benzilic Acid Rearrangement. It provides a ready method for the preparation of disubstituted a4iydroxy-carboxylic acids. When applied to a cyclic 1,2-diketone, the ring system is necessarily reduced by one carbon atom for example, cyclohexan-i,2 ... 

Esters of dicarboxyUc acids having hydrogen on tbe 8 or e carbon atoms undergo intramolecular cyclisation when heated with sodium or with sodium ethoxide. This cyclisation is known as the Dieckmann reaction. It is essentially an application of the Claiseu (or acetoacetic eater) condensation to the formation of a ring system the condensation occurs internally to produce s... 

IDA reactions to give fused 6 5 (hydroindene) and 6 6 (hydronaphthalene) ring systems are usually favorable reactions. 

Intramolecular reactions between donor and acceptor centres in fused ring systems provide a general route to bridged polycyclic systems. The cts-decalone mesylate given below contains two d -centres adjacent to the carbonyl function and one a -centre. Treatment of this compound with base leads to reversible enolate formation, and the C-3 carbanion substitutes the mesylate on C-7 (J. Gauthier, 1967 A. Belanger, 1968). 

A Pd-cataly2ed reaction of amines with halides is expected, but actually little is known about the reaction. The CDE ring system of lavendamycin (805) has been constructed by the intramolecular reaction of aryl bromide with aniline derivative in 804, but 1.2 equiv, of Pd(Ph3P)4 is required[679]. 

The reaction of the allylic acetate with a diene system 784 affords the poly-fused ring system 785 by three repeated alkene insertions[487]. An even more strained molecule of the [5.5.5.5] fenestrane 788 has been constructed by a one-pot reaction in a satisfactory yield by the Pd-catalyzed carbonylation-cycliza-tion of 786 without undergoing elimination of /3-hydrogen in the cr-alkylpalla-dium intermediate 787 owing to unfavorable stereochemistry for syn elimination[488]. 

Since the six carbons shown above have 10 additional bonds, the variety of substituents they carry or the structures they can be a part of is quite varied, making the Diels-Alder reaction a powerful synthetic tool in organic chemistry. A moment s reflection will convince us that a molecule like structure [XVI] is monofunctional from the point of view of the Diels-Alder condensation. If the Diels-Alder reaction is to be used for the preparation of polymers, the reactants must be bis-dienes and bis-dienophiles. If the diene, the dienophile, or both are part of a ring system to begin with, a polycyclic product results. One of the first high molecular weight polymers prepared by this synthetic route was the product resulting from the reaction of 2-vinyl butadiene [XIX] and benzoquinone [XX] ... 

The chemical properties of cycHc ketones also vary with ring size. Lower members (addition reactions, than corresponding acycHc ketones. The Cg—C 2 ketones are unreactive, reflecting the strain and high enol content of medium-sized ring systems. Lactones are prepared from cycHc ketones by the Bayer-ViUiger oxidation reaction with peracids. S-Caprolactone is manufactured from cyclohexane by this process ... 

A typical resin has an initial molecular weight of 150 to perhaps 1500. For systems of unsubstituted phenols, the final cross-link density is 150—300 atomic mass units (amu) per cross-link. In other words, 25—75% of the ring-joining reactions occur during the cure phase. 

Oxidation can also occur at the central metal atom of the phthalocyanine system (2). Mn phthalocyanine, for example, can be produced ia these different oxidation states, depending on the solvent (2,31,32). The carbon atom of the ring system and the central metal atom can be reduced (33), some reversibly, eg, ia vattiag (34—41). Phthalocyanine compounds exhibit favorable catalytic properties which makes them interesting for appHcations ia dehydrogenation, oxidation, electrocatalysis, gas-phase reactions, and fuel cells (qv) (1,2,42—49). 

Miscellaneous Reactions. The A/-hydrogen atom of diphenylamine is reactive and readily replaced by deuterium by treating with C2H OD. The addition of acid cataly2es the exchange of the hydrogen atoms on the ring system (11). 

From Multiring Systems Containing Pyrazoles. The pyrazolopyrimidine (65) on treatment with diazomethane forms the cyclopropane (66), which undergoes a ring-opening reaction with potassium hydroxide to yield the pyrazole (67) (eq. 16) (44). 

Reaction of pyrrole with carbenes yields enlarged ring systems as well as 2-formylpyrrole [1003-29-8] (40). 

Hydroisoquinolines. In addition to the ring-closure reactions previously cited, a variety of reduction methods are available for the synthesis of these important ring systems. Lithium aluminum hydride or sodium in Hquid ammonia convert isoquinoline to 1,2-dihydroisoquinoline (175). Further reduction of this intermediate or reduction of isoquinoline with tin and hydrochloric acid, sodium and alcohol, or catalyticaHy using platinum produces...
