The stereospecificity of the cyclization reaction of (E)- and (Z)-2-alkenyl esters and amides of ethenetricarboxylate has been examined. The reaction of (E)/(Z)-2-butenyl esters with AlCl3 or FeCl3 gave trans-substituted chlorinated γ-lactone diastereomers stereospecifically. (E)/(Z)-2-butenyl and pentenyl amides undergo an intramolecular ene reaction at room temperature gradually. At 80 °C, the (Z)-alkenyl amides were transformed to cis-substituted ene adducts and the (E)-amides were transformed to cis- and trans-substituted ene adduct mixtures. The reaction of (E)/(Z)-2-alkenyl amides with ZnI2 gave trans-substituted γ-lactam diastereomers stereospecifically along with the ene adducts.

A series of syn-[3.3]metacyclophanes (MCPs) containing internal substituted benzyloxy group have been synthesized by the modified TosMIC coupling reaction followed by acid treatment and Wolff–Kishner reduction. anti-Mono- and di-benzyloxy[3.3]MCPs are synthesized by O-benzylation of the corresponding hydroxy[3.3]MCPs, which are obtained by demethylation of methoxy[3.3]MCPs with BBr3 at room temperature. An interesting and intriguing result was obtained when syn-6,15-di-tert-butyl-9-methoxy-18-methyl[3.3]MCP-2,11-dione was treated with TMSI to afford the formation of a dihydrobenzofuran ring by a nucleophilic intramolecular cyclization reaction. The 1H NMR and X-ray analysis of 6a confirms that it adopts a syn (chair–chair) conformation in both solution and solid state.

The reaction of TeClF5 with CH3OH, and CH3OSiMe3, leads to a mixture of cis- and trans-(CH3O)TeClF4 in a ratio of 1:6, as well as some unidentified Te(IV) product. The vibrational spectrum of the 1:6 mixture of cis- and trans-(CH3O)TeClF4 was accounted for on the basis of the predominant pseudo-C4vtrans isomer. TeClF5 is unreactive towards anhydrous HF, SbF5, AlCl3, SO2, F2, and ClF at room temperature. Over the temperature range 70–250 °C it thermally decomposes to TeF6, TeF4, and Cl2. It slowly reacts with CsF to form CsTeF5, TeF6, Cl2, and small amounts of ClF, and with HNMe2 it is also reduced to form TeF4•HNMe2.

Acid-catalyzed elimination of methanol from 2,4-dimethoxytetrahydropyran (1) produces 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran (3) rather than the expected olefin 4-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (2).The reaction of 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin with 3 in ether – methanol gives a 2:1 mixture of the isomers 3β-bromo-2α,4α-dimethoxytetrahydropyran (5a) and 3α-bromo-2α,4β-dimethoxytetrahydropyran (5b) respectively. A rationale is given to explain the preponderance of 5a over 5b and the highly selective attack of the bromine of the hydantoin and the methanol on C-3 and C-4 respectively of the double bond of 3. Reduction of 5ab with zinc in ethanol provides only compound 3.The room temperature reaction of 1 in a mixture of water and 1,2-dimethoxyethane containing Amberlite IR-120, produces 2-hydroxy-4-methoxytetrahydropyran (6) as an equilibrium mixture of cis and trans isomers in the ratio 1:1. This gave a value of 0.9 kcal/mole for the anomeric effect in 6. Pyrolysis of the derivative, 2-acetoxy-4-methoxytetrahydropyran failed to produce the olefin 2 and resulted only in extensive decomposition.

Tetrahedral and octahedral cobalt(II), and square and octahedral nickel(II) complexes of 1,2-bis(2′-imidazolin-2′-yl)benzene, 1,2-bis(2′-imidazolin-2′-yl)ethane, and some imidazoline ring methyl substituted ligands are reported. The structures are confirmed by three X-ray structural analyses, magnetism, and electronic and vibrational (conventional and far i.r.) spectroscopy. Both cis and trans octahedral complexes of the type M(ligand)2(NCS)2 [M = Co(II), Ni(II)] have been characterized, and none of these exhibit splitting of the v(CN)(NCS) absorption in the i.r. spectrum at room temperature. Low temperature studies reveal splitting of the v(CN) band in the cis isomers. Both 13C and 15N satellite absorption is identified. The delocalization of the double bond in the imidazoline rings in these complexes is discussed in terms of the i.r. and X-ray data.

Fluorosilylphosphanes of the type R2SiFPHR′ (R = CHMe2, CMe3, NMeSiMe3; R′ = H, C6H5; 1-4) are obtained in the reaction of difluorosilanes with lithiated phosphanes in a molar ratio 1:1. Diphosphasilanes (5, 6) and a difluorosilylphosphane (7) are isolated as by-products. 1-4 react with n-C4H9Li to give cyclic silylphosphanes, LiF, and C4H10 (8-11). Dilithiated 5 reacts with F2PN(CMe3)SiMe3 to form of a four-membered SiP3-ring 12. The 31P NMR spectra of 9 and 11 show signal coalescence for the cis-and trans-isomers at room temperature. The crystal structure of the cis-isomer of 11 has been determined. The substituted ring 13 is prepared in the reaction of lithiated 9 and Me2SiF2
