The mercaptolysis of the α-and β-pentaacetyl derivatives of glucopyranose and galactopyranose at 0 °C. with zinc chloride catalyst was studied. The β-pentaacetates were rapidly transformed to the corresponding ethyl tetraacetyl-1-thio-β-D-glycosides in excellent yields; however, the α-anomers were highly resistant to the mercaptolytic conditions. The results are interpreted on the basis of a participation by the C2-acetoxy group in the replacements at the lactol carbon atom of the β-pentaacetates with the intermediate formation of a resonance stabilized cyclic carbonium ion.

The stannic chloride catalyzed anomerization of the pentaacetyl-D-gluco-pyranoses in chloroform solution is specific for the C1-acetoxy group. The reactions involve complete dissociation of the C1-carbon atom to acetoxy group bond with an intermediate formation of carbonium ions. The initial step of the beta to alpha rearrangement is a rapid dissociation, involving the participation of the C2-acetoxy group, to a resonance-stabilized carbonium ion with the lactol carbon atom occupied in the α-configuration. The rate-controlling step in the reaction appears to be the rearrangement of this ion to other ions which are capable of recombining with acetate ion to yield the α-acetate. The α-acetate is highly stable, as compared to the β-anomer, and the dissociation of the C1-carbon atom to acetoxy group bond is the rate-controlling step in its rearrangement. The stability of the α-acetate toward a variety of acidic reagents which readily dissociate the β-form is pointed out. For example, although the α-acetate is highly stable toward titanium tetrachloride, the reaction of the β-anomer with this reagent, to yield tetraacetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl chloride, is extremely fast. This product is unstable under the reaction conditions used and rearranges to the α-form at a measurable rate. 1,2,3,4-Tetraacetyl-β-D-glucopyranose with stannic chloride in chloroform solution yielded triacetyl-D-glucosan <l, 5 > β <1, 6>.The alkaline hydrolysis of triacetyl-D-glucosan <1, 5> α <1, 2> yielded D-glucosan <1, 5> β <1, 6>. The mechanisms of these reactions are discussed.

Abstract The studies described in this papier lead to certain conclusions. The crosslinking reaction of halobutyl with zinc oxide does not give rise to ether crosslinks. All the evidence indicates that the chemistry involves the formation of carbon-carbon bonds by an alkylation type chemistry. The dehydrohalogenation of the halobutyl to form a zinc chloride catalyst is a key feature of the crosslinking chemistry. But conjugated diene butyl and Diels-Alder reactions are not the major reaction pathway for the zinc oxide crosslinking reaction. These conclusions have significance for the zinc oxide cure of CR which has an active allylic halide structure formed by 1,2-monomer enchainment.

Benzylidenation of D-arabinose diethyl and dipropyl dithioacetals with α,α-dimethoxytoluene in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid has been studied in detail. Under kinetic control the two terminal dioxolan -type 4,5-O-(R)- and 4,5-O-(S)-benzylidene diastereomers are formed first which are in equilibrium with each other In the thermodynamic phase of the reaction the corresponding dioxan -type 3,5-O-(R)- benzylidene isomer is formed too, but all three monobenzylidene isomers are gradually converted into the four possible dioxolan -type 2,3 : 4,5-di-O benzylidene diastereomers . The dioxan -type 2,4:3,5-di-O-benzylidene isomer was present only in trace amounts. When benzaldehyde was used as reagent in the presence of hydrochloric acid or zinc chloride only the 2,3: 4,5-di-O-benzylidene diastereomers were formed. Partial hydrolysis of the dibenzylidene derivatives yielded the corresponding 2,3-O-benzylidene diastereomers. Structures, including the chirality of the benzylidene groups, were determined by n.m.r. spectroscopy. A mechanism suggested for the reaction was partially supported by equilibration studies.

The reaction of silver nitrate in dry acetonitrile with 2,5-dideoxy-2,5-diiodo-1,4;3,6-dianhydro-L-iditol resulted in formation of the dinitrate esters of the 1,4;3,6-dianhydrides of D-mannitol, D-glucitol, and L-iditol. Similarly both endo- and exo-nitrato groups were introduced in displacement of the endo-halogen in the 2-deoxy-2-iodo-5-O-acetyl and 2-deoxy-2-iodo-5-O-p-toluenesulfonyl derivatives of 1,4;3,6-dianhydro-L-iditol. Since both types of nitrato groups were stable to silver nitrate, the racemization occurred during the displacement and was attributed to formation of cyclic carbonium ion intermediates. The steric effect of the adjacent ring in the carbonium ions apparently suppressed the termolecular, ion-pair mechanism previously established for the metathesis of acyclic alkyl halides and caused preferential formation of the exo-nitrato derivatives.The heterogeneous reaction of meso-dibromostilbene with silver nitrate in acetic acid or acetonitrile gave meso-dihydrobenzoin dinitrate with overall retention of configuration. This result could be most readily reconciled with the contrasting sequence of retention and inversion previously reported for meso- and dl-2,3-dibromobutane if participation of neighboring phenyl groups occurred in the second displacement step.

The synthesis of 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene-5-carboxylic acid (2) and several derivatives of 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene-5-carboxylic acid (1; a–c) from 5-hydroxy-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene-5-carboxylic acid and derivatives thereof (3; a–c) is described.The p-toluenesulfonic acid-catalyzed elimination of water (at 110.6° in toluene) from the deuterated hydroxy ester (3b; C-10, 11 d2) resulted in the incorporation of deuterium at C-5 of the olefinic ester 1b with a KH/KD of 2.76. The large magnitude of this isotope effect indicated that the reaction proceeded via a rate-determining transannular 1,5-hydride transfer from one of the benzylic positions of 3b to the carbonium ion generated alpha to the methoxy-carbonyl group.

A novel silica-supported zinc chloride catalyst was prepared and investigated for the Biginelli reaction. The key features of the catalyst include rapid reaction with 100% conversion of aldehyde, good catalyst recyclability, and high stability under the reaction conditions (passes hot filtration test successfully). A low catalyst loading (12 mol% of ZnCl2) was required to achieve a quantitative reaction. Other catalysts such as SiO2–AlCl2, SiO2–AlCl2–ZnCl2 were also prepared and their activity was compared with SiO2–ZnCl2 for the Biginelli reaction.Key words: silica gel, zinc chloride, Biginelli compounds, heterogeneous catalysis, reusability.
