A cyclopropanone, a cyclopropenone, cyclobutanones, a cyclobutane-1,3-dione, and a cyclobutene-1,2-dione reacted with dimethoxycarbene to afford acetals of the next larger ring by formal insertion of the carbene into a C—C bond α to the carbonyl group. When either of two saturated α-ring carbons could be involved in the process, the ring expansion was selective, affording primarily the product of apparent insertion into the more substituted ring bond. With 2,3-dimethoxycyclobutene-1,2-dione, insertion occurred between the carbonyl groups and with β-propiolactone it occurred at the lactone bond. β-Propiolactam, however, reacted by insertion of the carbene into the N—H bond.Key words: β-propiolactone, cyclobutanone, cyclobutananedione, cyclopropanone, dialkoxycarbene.

2-Imidazolidinone and its analogues are omnipresent structural motifs of pharmaceuticals, natural products, chiral auxiliaries, and intermediates in organic syntheses. Over the years, continuous efforts have been addressed to the development of sustainable and more efficient protocols for the synthesis of these heterocycles. This review gives a summary of the catalytic strategies to access imidazolidin-2-ones and benzimidazolidin-2-ones that have appeared in the literature from 2010 to 2018. Particularly important contributions beyond the timespan will be mentioned. The review is organized in four main chapters that identify the most common approaches to imidazolidin-2-one derivatives: (1) the direct incorporation of the carbonyl group into 1,2-diamines, (2) the diamination of olefins, (3) the intramolecular hydroamination of linear urea derivatives and (4) aziridine ring expansion. Methods not included in this classification will be addressed in the miscellaneous section.

Aptitude to ring expansion in the piperidine series, measured by the ratio of ring expanded ketone to epoxide, varies considerably according to the nitrogen atom substituent. This ratio is essentially the same in the case of the reaction of diazomethane on 4-piperidones and the nitrous acid deamination of the corresponding aminoalcohols. The values of the ratio are 0.01–0.1 for a phenylsulfonyl group, of the order 0.3–0.6 for a benzoyl group and slightly greater than 1 for a benzyl group. Electronic effects (inductive and field effects) are the cause of these differences. Parallels between the two reactions indicate that nucleophilic attack of diazomethane on the carbonyl group can lead to the ring expanded ketone and the epoxide.

Two routes are reported for the synthesis of iminocyclobutenones having N-(het)aryl substitution: an addition/substitution sequence starting with cyclobutenediones and an aza-Wittig method. A new synthetic route to N-alkyl derivatives is also presented. This involves O-alkylation of 3-alkylamino-1,2-cyclobutenediones using Meerwein’s reagent and subsequent deprotonation under non-hydrolytic conditions. Lithium organyls were found to add to the remaining carbonyl group. The resulting tertiary alcohols undergo ring enlargement on heating in xylene to give 4-aminophenols, 4-amino-1-naphthols, or cyclopenta-annulated quinolines from 4-vinyl, 4-aryl, and 4-alkynyl derivatives, respectively.

The second compound,</div><div>a phosphoranyl-triarylborate, was found to have a vastly different reactivity to the trihydroborate as it was highly stable</div><div>towards acids and bases. This is thought to be due to the large bulk around the P–B bond as shown in the crystal structure</div>

Two building blocks converged in a novel sp3-sp2 attached-ring coupling that used Ir/Ni dual-catalysis to reverse the regioselectivity of siloxycy- clopropane arylation.

A mechanism of the electrochemical reduction of β-(4-ethylbenzoyl)-α,β-dibromopropionic acid is suggested based on the results of classical polarography and polarography with Kalousek's switch and on the identification of the polarographically active intermediate products. The substance converts to β-4-ethylbenzoylacrylic acid on the electrochemical elimination of the bromine atoms, and the latter acid is reduced further to β-4-ethylbenzoylpropionic acid. The most negative polarographic wave corresponds to the reduction of the carbonyl group in the benzoyl part of the last acid.
