Diels Alder Reaction

The syntheses of decahydro-5,14:6,13:7,12-trimethanopentacene and decahydro-5,14:7,12-dimethanopentacene are described (see Schemes 1 and 2 respectively). Diels -Alder reaction of diene (10) with two equivalents of tetrachlorothiophen 1,1-dioxide (11) gave the adduct (12), which was aromatized to (13) through treatment with base. Reductive dechlorination (Na/ PriOH ) of (13) gave (6). A similar set of reactions performed on (17), itself prepared from cyclohexa-1,4-diene and two equivalents of hexachlorocyclopentadiene (15), gave (7). The crystal structures of (6) and (7) were determined. An interesting feature of the structure of (7) is the slight endo pyramidalization (by c. 3°) of the trigonal carbon atoms C 4a, C 7a, C 11a and C 14a. Model ab initio calculations (STO-3G basis set) on complexes (27) and (28), whose geometries were culled from the crystal structure of (6), indicate that significant laticyclic hyperconjugative interactions (c. 0.3 eV ) are mainly responsible for causing the observed splitting between the πs+πs and πs-πs levels in the photoelectron spectrum of (6). Orbital interactions through the pair of six connecting sigma bonds (OIT-6-B) in (6) have a negligible effect (c. 0.08 eV ) on these levels. In agreement with prediction, laticyclic hyperconjugation does not affect the πa+πa and πa-πa levels.

Electrocyclic Reaction

2-Aminodienes, in which the enamine function is incorporated in a five-, six-, or seven-membered ring, react with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in a sequence of [2+2] cycloaddition and electrocyclic ring-opening to form the two-carbon ring expanded unsaturated heterocycles, i.e., 3,4- dicarboxylate substituted 6,7-dihydro-1H-azepines 3, 8 and 21, 1,6,7,8-tetrahydroazocines 22, and 6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-1H-azonines 13. Similarly, 2-[(2-thienyl)ethynyl]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-azepine 9 is converted into 2-[(2-thienyl)ethynyl]-6,7,8,9-1H-azonine-3,4-dicarboxylate 10 which was characterized by X-ray structure determination. The eight- and nine-membered azaheterocycles 22 and 13, which have not been isolated, undergo thermal isomerization at elevated temperatures. Thus, ring contraction by a 6π-electrocyclic reaction takes place for N-methyl substituted azonine 13, while the N-allyl moiety of azocines 22 engages in an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction or a 1,7- electrocyclization reaction

Spatial Demand

The molecular structures of ethyl di-9-anthrylglycolate (1) and methyl di-9-anthrylglycolate (2), as well as those of three isomerization products of (2), have been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. In both (1) and (2), the anthracenemoieties are characterized by marked deviations from planarity. The stereospecific course of the thermal and photochemical isomerization of (2) by Diels -Alder reaction is suggested to be governed by the spatial demand of the alkoxycarbonyl group. Base-catalysed isomerization of (2) by migration of 9-anthryl from carbon to oxygen is associated with steric relief.
