Lithium aluminium hydride reduces 2,3-trans-3-bromo-4'-methoxy-6-methyl-flavanone to 2,3-trans-3,4-trans-3-bromo-4'-methoxy-methylflvan-4-ol which is converted by acetic anhydride-potassium acetate into 3,4-trans-diacetoxy-4'-methoxy-6-methyl-2,3-cis-flavan. Similar reactions with the 3',4'-dimethoxy analogue give 3,4-trans-diacetoxy-3',4'-dimethoxy-6-methyl-2,3-cis-flavan. The corresponding cis-bromoflavanones are reduced to 2,3-cis-3,4-cis-3-bromoflavan-4-ols.

Reaction of trans-trans-3-bromoflavan-4-ols with ethanolic potassium acetate is shown to lead to 2,3-cis-3,4-trans-4-ethoxy- and -4-acetoxy-flavan-3-ols, as well as to 2,3-cis-flavan-3,4-trans-diols. Flavan-3,4-cis-diols are converted into 3,4-trans-diacetates by acetylation with a mixture of acetic acid, acetic anhydride, and potassium acetate. cis-cis-Flavan-3,4-diols are thus converted into 3,4-trans-diacetoxy-2,3-cis-flavans, and 2,3-trans-flavan-3,4-cis-diols give trans-trans-diacetates. Epimerization of cis-cis-glycols to cis-trans-diacetates provides the most convenient route to 3,4-trans-3',4'-dimethoxy-6-methyl-2,3-cis-flavan, and to the corresponding 4'-methoxy analogue, and reduction with lithium aluminium hydride then gives the 2,3-cis-flavan-3,4-trans-diols. 3',4'-Dimethoxy-6-methyl-2,3-cis-flavan-3,4-trans-diol prepared in this way was converted into the corresponding carbonate, which is the first example of a 2,3-cis-3,4-trans-carbonate and completes the set of the four possible racemates in this series. The bromine atom is unreactive in cis-cis-3-bromo-3',4'- dimethoxy-6-methylflavan, but reductive dehalogenation with lithium aluminium hydride gave the ,β-flavan-4-ol (2,4-cis).

Oxidation of methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-3-deoxy-α-D-arabino-hexopyranoside (2) with methyl sulfoxide and acetic anhydride yielded methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-3-deoxy-α-D-erythro-hexopyranosid-2-ulose (3) in an 80% yield. Reduction of the oximino derivative of 3 with lithium aluminium hydride in tetrahydrofuran or with diborane afforded, after acetylation, methyl 2-acetamido-4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-dideoxy-α-D-ribo-hexopyranoside (6) in a 44% yield. The latter was also debenzylidenated with aqueous acetic acid. In a parallel reaction, methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-dideoxy-3-oximino-α-D-erythro-hexopyranoside yielded mainly methyl 3-acetamido-4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-dideoxy-α-D-arabino- (and a minor amount of the ribo-epimer)-hexopyranoside.

3-Amino-3-deoxy-D-ribose and D-ribose were prepared from a derivative of D-xylose. 1,2-O-Isopropylidene-5-O-triphenylmethyl-α-D-xylofuranose (2) was oxidized by dimethyl sulfoxide – acetic anhydride to 1,2-O-isopropylidene-5-O-triphenylmethyl-α-D-erythro-pentofuranos-3-ulose (3). The oxime (4) of this 3-keto sugar derivative was reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to 3-amino-3-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-5-O-triphenylmethyl-α-D-ribofuranose (5), isolated as the acetamido derivative (6). Hydrolysis yielded 3-amino-3-deoxy-D-ribose hydrochloride. 3 was reduced by sodium borohydride to 1,2-O-isopropylidene-5-O-triphenylmethyl-α-D-ribofuranose (7), which yielded D-ribose on hydrolysis.

Addition of nucleophiles to 2,2-difluoro-3-methyl-3-butenal (I) is complicated by its spontaneous polymerization. Compound I afforded neither hydrate nor dimethyl acetal but reacted with ethylene glycol to give the cyclic acetal II. Reaction with acetyl chloride and acetic anhydride led to the respective acetate III and diacetate IV. Satisfactory reaction with N-nucleophiles was observed only in the case of hydroxylamine and dinitrophenylhydrazine. Diethylamine reacted with I only at 150 °C to give the reduction product VI and the ethylaldimine VII. The compound I added nitromethane and sodium cyanide (giving X and XI, respectively); the adducts or products of their reduction with lithium aluminium hydride were hydroxylated at the double bond to give analogues of alcoholic sugars with difluoromethylene group in position 3. Hydroxylation of the butenal I or the acetate III afforded 3,3-difluoro-2,4-dihydroxy-4-methyloxolane (XIX) which was prepared also by cleavage of the acetal XVIII obtained from II by hydroxylation. Addition of bromine to the double bond in III and IV gave the dibromo derivatives XV and XVI; the attempted replacement of bromine in XV and XVI by acetate anion failed. Bromination of I in aqueous medium afforded 3-bromo-2,2-difluoro-3-methyl-4-butanolide (XIV).

Were developed new and practical synthesis of (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate and (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate. The routes involve, as the key step, the use of the mercury derivative of the terminal-alkyne w-functionalised as intermediate. The synthesis of (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate was based on a C6+C2=C8 and C8+C4=C12 coupling scheme, starting from 1,6-hexane-diol. The first coupling reaction took place between 1-tert-butoxy-6-bromo-hexane and lithium acetylide-ethylendiamine complex obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-oct-7-yne, which is transformed in di[tert-butoxy-oct-7-yne]mercury. The mercury derivative was directly lithiated and then alkylated with 1-bromobutane obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dodec-7-yne. After acetylation and reduction with lithium aluminium hydride of 7-dodecyne-1-yl acetate gave (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate with 96 % purity. The synthesis of (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate was based on a C8+C2=C10 and C10+C2=C12 coupling scheme, starting from 1,8-octane-diol. The first coupling reaction took place between 1-tert-butoxy-8-bromo-octane and lithium acetylide-ethylendiamine complex obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dec-9-yne, which is transformed in di[tert-butoxy-dec-9-yne]mercury. The mercury derivative was directly lithiated and then alkylated with 1-bromoethane obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dodec-9-yne. After reduction with lithium aluminium hydride of 1-tert-butoxy-(E)-9-dodecene and acetylation was obtained (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate with 97 % purity.

4-Chloromethyl-s-hydrindacene (VIIa) was transformed via the malonic acid derivatives VIIIa and IXa to the acid Xb which afforded in four steps the homological acid Xc. Reactions of chlorides of both acids (XIbc ) with dimethylamine, 1-methylpiperazine and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine led to the amides XIIbc-XIVbc which were reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to the title compounds IVcd-VIcd. The amines obtained show central neuroleptic effects only in subtoxic doses; they are also potent local anaesthetics and have significant spasmolytic activity of the neurotropic as well as musculotropic type.

(Arylthio)benzoic acids IIa - IIe and VIb - VId were transformed via the acid chlorides to the N,N-dimethylamides which were reduced either with diborane "in situ" or with lithium aluminium hydride to N,N-dimethyl-(arylthio)benzylamines Ia - Ie and Vb - Vd. Leuckart reaction of the aldehydes IX and X with dimethylformamide and formic acid afforded directly the amines Va and Ve. Demethylation of the methoxy compounds Ia and Ve with hydrobromic acid resulted in the phenolic amines If and Vf. The most interesting N,N-dimethyl-4-(phenylthio)benzylamine (Va) hydrochloride showed affinity to cholinergic and 5-HT2 serotonin receptors in the rat brain and some properties considered indicative of antidepressant activity (inhibition of serotonin re-uptake in the brain and potentiation of yohimbine toxicity in mice).
