5,8-Dimethoxy-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one was converted into diazomethyl 5,8-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl ketone (10) which, when treated with trifluoroacetic acid at 0°, gave 5,8- dimethoxy-4,4a-dihydro-3,4a-ethanonaphthalen-2(3H)-one (13), but at -15° gave 8-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-3,4a-ethanonaphthalene- 5(4aH),10-dione (14). 6-Methoxy-3,4-dihydronaphtha-len-1(2H)-one reacted with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid to give 4,5-dihydro-1-benzoxepin-2(3H)-one (15) which after hydrolysis, ethylation and polyphosphoric acid treatment gave 5-ethoxy-8-methoxy-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one (17). This compound was transformed into 5-ethoxy-8-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoic acid (19) and thence to the ethoxy analogue of (14).

Simple efficient syntheses of 8-hydroxy- and 8-methoxy-2-tetralones (9) and (10), 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-8- hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (5), 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-hydroxy-8-methoxy-2-naphthoic acid (8), 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,s-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (7) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (20) are described. The acid-catalysed reactions of the diazoketones derived from (5) and (20) gave good yields of tricyclic ketones (3) and (4) incorporating a cyclohexa-2,4-dienone moiety. The potential of (3) for gibberellin synthesis is examined.

The tricyclic dienones (14), (16), and (16) have been prepared by the Ar1-6 cyclization of a diastereomeric mixture of 7-[(2?-bromo-1?- tetrahydropyranyloxy)-ethyl]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthols (11) and of 7-diazoacetyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthol (17). Intermediates (11) and (17) were prepared by standard procedures from 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro- 7-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid.

2-Hydroxy-6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoic acid and its 8- methoxy isomer were converted into trichloroacetate and dichloroacetate derivatives and thence to diazoketones (2), (3), (12) and (13). The acid-catalysed cyclization of these substrates to the dienones (6), (7), (16) and (17), respectively, was then studied. The trichloroacetoxy derivatives gave the best yields of dienones.

The reduction of several o,o'-dihydroxyazo-compounds is studied by means of pulse polarographic techniques (DPP, NPP and RPP). The compounds studied are the following: 2-(2'-hydroxyphenylazo)-phenol (o,o'-dihydroxyazobenzene), 1-(2'-hydroxy-1'-naphthylazo)-2-naphthol-4-sulphonic acid (calcon or Eriochrome Blue Black R), 1-(2'-hydroxy-4'-sulpho-1'-naphthylazo)-2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid (calcon carboxylic acid), and 1-(1'-hydroxy-2'-naphthylazo)-6-nitro-2-naphthol-4-sulphonic acid (Eriochrome Black T). Correlations between Ip and Epand experimental variables (pH, T, conc.) and instrumental parameters (dropping time, t, and pulse magnitude, ΔE) are established. Reaction mechanisms formerly proposed are discussed on the basis of the new obtained results, and the ranges are defined where adsorption and/or acid-base catalysis are operative.

Under basic conditions (lithium diisopropylamide or sodium hydride in THF) 2-(2-bromoethoxy)-acetophenones were transformed to 3,4-dihydro[1]benzoxepin-5(2H)-ones (homochromanones) in high yields. The preparation of novel tetrahydropyrano[2,3-b]pyrrol-6(2H)-ones and 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrolo[2,1-b][1,3]oxazin-6(8aH)-ones and spiro compounds was performed using similar cyclization in moderate to good yields.Key words: cyclization, lithiation, spiro heterocycles.
