Alcohol dehydrogenases catalyze the regioselective lactonization of dialdehydes via a bio-Tishchenko-like reaction. The nicotinamide-dependent self-sufficient reduction–oxidation sequence proceeds through a formal intramolecular hydride shift.

The synthesis of D-ribose-2-t from D-arabinose is described and its conversions in aqueous alkali in the presence and absence of oxygen reported. In both situations a significant amount of label is transferred from C-2 to -1 and a relatively small proportion is released to the solvent. It is concluded that hydride transfer is occurring and that enolization, which requires the loss of hydrogen from C-2, is not an obligatory first step in base-catalyzed rearrangements of D-ribose.

Treatment of the N3S3 donor cage complex [Co(NO2-capten)]3+ (1-methyl-8-nitro-3,13,16-trithia-6,10,19-triazabicyclo[6.6.6]icosanecobalt(III)) with excess base leads to deprotonation of a secondary coordinated amine group, followed by loss of a methylene unit from the cap by a retro-Mannich type reaction. Subsequent intermolecular hydride transfer gives a novel oxidized and partly delocalized macrocyclic complexed carbanion (13-(4-amino-2-thiabutyl)-13-methyl-6-nitro-1,11-dithia-4,8-diazacyclotetradec-4-enato(6)cobalt(III)) that is stabilized by deprotonation, and which remains deprotonated even in strong acid.

The acyclic ketols [Formula: see text] have been synthesized by a Reformatsky sequence. Each ketol undergoes intramolecular hydride transfer when refluxed in KOH–H2O–t-BuOH solution. When the procedure was applied to the synthesis of 34, hydride transfer occurred during the Reformatsky reaction to yield 33 instead. With longer reaction times, 33 underwent self-acylation and β-dicarbonyl cleavage to 37. Treatment of 33 with aqueous base gave a mixture of ketols 35 and 36 from hydride transfer and β-keto decarboethoxylation. The attempted conversion of the isobutyrate group of the Reformatsky intermediates 21 and 24 to tert-butyl was not practicable.

2-(1-Hydroxybenzyl)-N1′-methylthiamin (1b) is a model for the addition intermediate in the thiamin catalyzed benzoin condensation. However, N-alkylation alters the reactivity of the compound: instead of undergoing base-catalyzed formation of benzaldehyde and N1′-methylthiamin, it rapidly forms trimethyl amino pyrimidine (2b) and phenylthiazole ketone (3). The base-catalyzed fragmentation process is faster than the analogous enzymic reaction (in benzoylformate decarboxylase) under the same conditions. One possible mechanism for the rapid fragmentation is an internal hydride transfer from α-C2 to the methylene bridge between the heterocycles. To test the hydride mechanism we prepared α-C2-deuterated 1b and conducted the fragmentation reaction in normal water. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that the trimethyl aminopyrimidine product does not contain any deuterium, ruling out a hydride transfer mechanism. This supports a mechanism for fragmentation that proceeds instead via a proton transfer from α-C2. Since protonation (and hence, deprotonation) of that site is part of the normal catalytic cycle of benzoylformate decarboxylase, the enzyme must divert the reaction from the lowest energy pathway since it would share a common intermediate with the fragmentation process.Key words: thiamin, fragmentation, benzoylformate decarboxylase, proton transfer, hydride shift.
