Attempted reduction of a laurenene-derived keto ester with sodium borohydride or lithium tri-t-butoxyaluminium hydride at 110° gave rise to products containing a new tetracyclic carbon ring system made up of one seven- and one six- membered ring and two five- membered rings.

Treatment of laurenan-2β-ol (2) with trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane at 0° gives as the major product the rearranged alkene (4). This compound has a new carbon-ring system containing three five-membered rings and one six- membered ring. The structure of (4) has been determined by a range of n.m.r. techniques applied to (4) and selected derivatives. Deuterium- labelling experiments have established that the rearrangement proceeds to a remote part of the molecule and then returns to its starting point.

The reaction of α,ω-dihalides with the dianion of methyl acetoacetate gives a mixture of mono- and bisalkylated products. The monoalkylated products can be cyclized via the monoanion to cyclic β-keto esters with a seven- or eight-membered ring. Alternatively these monoalkylated products can be cyclized via the dianion to γ-cyclopentyl- or γ-cyclohexyl-β-keto esters.

Dihydrogelsemine reacts with diethyl azodicarboxylate yielding a carbinolamine which forms a methyl ether. Both this ether and the carbinolamine base can be oxidized by chromic acid to the same neutral lactam. That there has been no rearrangement of the carbon skeleton during these reactions is shown by reduction of the methyl ether of the carbinolamine with sodium borohydride to dihydrogelsemine and by reduction of the lactam with lithium aluminum hydride to tetrahydrodesoxygelsemine. It is concluded that both dihydrogelsemine and gelsemine contain a methylene group adjacent to N(b), and from the infrared spectrum of the lactam of dihydrogelsemine, N(b) appears to be part of a five-membered ring.

Pyrazole, a member of the structural class of azoles, exhibits molecular properties of interest in pharmaceuticals and materials chemistry, owing to the two adjacent nitrogen atoms in the five-membered ring system. The weakly basic nitrogen atoms of deprotonated pyrazoles have been applied in coordination chemistry, particularly to access coordination polymers and metal-organic frameworks, and homocoupling reactions can in principle provide facile access to bipyrazole ligands. In this context, we summarize recent advances in homocoupling reactions of pyrazoles and other types of azoles (imidazoles, triazoles and tetrazoles) to highlight the utility of homocoupling reactions in synthesizing symmetric bi-heteroaryl systems compared with traditional synthesis. Metal-free reactions and transition-metal catalyzed homocoupling reactions are discussed with reaction mechanisms in detail.

AbstractThe 1,4-dithia-2,6-diaza-3,5-diborinanes 1a-d react with elemental sodium with formation of the 1,3-diaza-2,4-diboretidines 2a-d. By use of more sodium in case of 1 d or 3,5-bis(diethylamino)- 2-cyclohexyl-6-trimethylsilyldiborinane, the 1,3-thiaza-2,4-diboretidines 3 were formed. 3.5-Dimethyl-2,6-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-dithia-2,6-diaza-3,5-diborinane gives the borazine 4, The reaction of di-t-butyl-sulfurdiimide with 2,6-di-t-butyl-3,5-dimethyl-1,4-dithia-2,6-diaza-3,5-diborinane leads by ring contraction to the four-membered ring system 5. 1H, 11B, 13C NMR and mass spectra are reported and discussed.

1The reaction of ClSO2N = PPh2Cl () with NH3 yields H2NSO2N = PPh2NH2 (2).This compound is converted to Me3Si(H)NSO2N = PPh2N(H)SiMe3 (3) by Me3SiNMe2. 3 reacts with WOCl4 under elimination of (Me3Si)2O and ClSO2NH2 to yield the eight-membered ring system (Cl3WNPPh2N)2 (4).The molecular structure of 4 was investigated by an X-ray structure analysis.
