Oxidation of the title benzylphenol (1) with silver oxide in alcoholic media forms benzylic ethers of type (5) in high yields; e.g. oxidation in methanol yields 2,4-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-6-[methoxy(4- methoxyphenyl)methyl]phenol(5a) together with an unusual dimer, the structure of which was shown by X-ray crystallographic analysis to be 2-[3,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-2-{methoxy(4-methoxyphenyl)- methoxy}phenoxy]-1,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethy)-3-[methoxy(4- methoxyphenyl)methyl]benzene (6). The benzylic ethers (5) are convenient intermediates for the syntheses of a variety of compounds related to (1).

The molecular structure of a minor oxidation product of the insect sterilant 2,4-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl) 6-[(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl]phenol has been established as (�)-cis-1,3,6,8-tetrakis(1,1-dimethyl-ethyl)-4b,9b-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-4b,9b-dihydrobenzofuro[3,2-b]benzofuran by means of X-ray crystallographic analysis.

The heterocyclic derivatives, 8,9-dimethoxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-3,4,5,6- tetrahydro-1H-2,3-benzoxazocine(3a) and 9,10-dimethoxy-3-methyl-1- phenyl-1,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-2,3-benzoxazonine (3b),examples of two new ring systems, have been prepared by Meisenheimer rearrangement of the corresponding 2-benzazepine and 2-benzazocine N-oxide derivatives (2a) and (2b). The Bischler-Napieralski-type cyclization reaction was used in the preparation of the tertiary amine precursors of these N-oxides reaction conditions for the cyclization were critical and phosphorus oxychloride in refluxing butanenitrile was found to give the best yields of the seven- or eight-membered cyclic imine intermediates. Reductive cleavage of the benzoxazocine derivative (3a) with zinc in acetic acid followed by N-methylation gave the expected product, [2-{3- (dimethylamino)propyl}-4,5-di-methoxyphenyl]phenylmethanol (12). The crystal and molecular structure of (3a) has been determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

The title compound was isolated from the treatment of Tp*Sn(Cl)2Bu (1) with a large excess of sodium hydroxide in a mixture of acetone-water at room temperature. [(Me2CO)3(NaTp*)2] (2) crystallizes at 4 °C as prismatic colorless crystals, in the monoclinic space group P21/c with Z = 4, a = 12.2837(6), b = 24.3197(12), c = 16.9547(8) Å, β = 110.017(1)°, and V = 4759.0(4) Å3. The X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed a dinuclear unit in which two Tp*Na moieties are held together by three bridging acetone molecules acting as oxygen-based donors.

The title compound formed the major component in a rearrangement of an analogue of 4-amino-4-deoxychorismic acid (1), an intermediate in the chorismate-p-aminobenzoic acid biotransformation. X-Ray crystallographic analysis has defined the relative stereochemistry at the four chiral centres in the tricyclic molecule.

Cobalt(II) and nickel(II) thiolates, M(SR)2, can be prepared in high yield by the electrochemical oxidation of a metal anode in an acetonitrile or acetone solution of RSH (R = C6H5, o-CH3C6H4, 2-C10H7, 2,3,4,5-C6F4H; not all combinations). When 2,2-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline (=L) is added to the electrolyte phase, the products are the adducts M(SR)2L2. In the case of Co(SC6H5)2(phen)2, aerial oxidation leads to the formation of the cobalt(III) cation [Co(SC6H5)2(phen)2]+, isolated as the perchlorate salt. X-ray crystallographic analysis showed that this cation has a cis-CoS2(N2)2 kernel.

Abstract 1,2,3,4-Tetrakis(t-butyl)tetraarsetane (t-C4H9As)4(4) has been synthesized by reduction of t-butylarsenic (III) diiodide (1) with equivalent quantities of either Mg, Ca, Zn, Li, or CoCp2 in THF at low temperatures in high yields. Treatment of 1 with CoCp2 in a molar ratio 1:1 in n-pentane at -78 °C leads to the formation of 1,2-di-t-butyl-1,2-diiododiarsine (2) (t-C4H9AsI)2 in 69 % yield. The products have been characterized by spectroscopic methods (H, 13C-NMR, EI-MS) and elemental analyses. The crystal structure of 2 has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods.

4H-Chromene-2-carboxylic acid ester derivatives of renieramycin M might be of use for the structural-activity relationship studies of antitumor antibiotic tetrahydroisoquinoline natural products. Accordingly, 6-tert-butyl-4-phenyl-4H-chromene-2-carboxylic acid, one key intermediate, was synthesized via the condensation of (3E)-2-oxo-4-phenylbut-3-enoate methyl ester with 4-tert-butylphenol in the presence of AuCl3/3AgOTf (5 mol%), followed by cyclodehydration and aqueous hydrolysis. The product was unambiguously shown to the 4H-chromene-2-carboxylic acid by spectroscopy and X-ray crystallographic analysis. A packing diagram of the crystal structure shows that aromaticπ-stacking interactions and O–H⋯O hydrogen bond stabilize the structure in the solid.
