A convenient synthesis of DL-hydroxy-ornithine is described. Starting from diethyl allylmalonate, it involves treatment with sulphuryl chloride followed by hydrolysis and distillation to give a 90% yield of 2,5-dichloro-4-valerolactone. Condensation of this with two equivalents of potassium phthalimide in dimethyl-formamide gives a quantitative yield of crude 2,5-diphthalimido-4-valerolactone. This lactone is converted quantitatively by acid hydrolysis to DL-γ-hydroxyornithine, isolated as the dihydrochloride of the corresponding 2,5-diamino-4-valerolactone. The over-all yield calculated from allyl chloride is 80%.

A new synthesis of DL-glutamic acid was carried out in an over-all yield of 87% from condensation between β-propiolactone and the sodium salt of diethyl acetamidomalonate, followed by acid hydrolysis. When desired, the intermediate product, the diethyl ester of N-acetyl-2-carbethoxyglutamic acid, could be isolated in a 68% yield and hydrolyzed to glutamic acid via the hydrochloride in a 95% yield.

Treatment of cyclododecane-r-1,c-5,c-9-triyl tris(p-toluenesulphonate) with sodium azide in dimethyl-formamide at 100� for 6 h gave the corresponding cis,cis-triazide which upon hydrogenation or reduction with lithium aluminium hydride gave cyclododecane-r-1,c-5,c-9-triamine, isolated as the tris-salicylidene derivative. Acid hydrolysis of this, removal of the salicylaldehyde, and treatment of the aqueous solution with sodium carbonate and 2,3-dimethoxybenzoyl chloride gave r-1,c-5,c- 9-tris(2,3-dimethoxybenzamido)cyclododecane. ��� Treatment of (E,E,E)-cyclododeca-1,5,9-triene with an excess of acetonitrile and sulphuric acid at room temperature for three days gave 18% of (E,E)-1-acetamidocyclododeca-4,8-diene; no di- or tri-amides were isolated.

Abstract The title compounds (1) are obtained in quantitative yield from the reaction between dppePtCl2 (2) and alkynyl stannanes (CH3)3 Sn - C ≡ C-R (3) or (CH3)2Sn(C ≡ C-R)2 (4) in boiling tetrahydrofurane. The complexes 1 have been characterised by multinuclear NMR (13PC, 31P, 195Pt).

Reaction of the acyl chlorides 14–21 with lithium (phenylthio)(cis-2-vinylcyclopropyl)cuprate (2) provided the ketones 22–29. Compounds 22–25, upon treatment with i-Pr2NLi-Me3SiCl, were converted cleanly into the enol silyl ethers 30–33, which gave the 1,4-cycloheptadienes 34–37 upon thermolysis (100–110 °C). Acid hydrolysis of the latter materials produced the corresponding 4-cyclohepten-1-ones 38–41. However, subjection of the cis-2-vinylcyclopropyl ketones 26–29 to i-Pr2NLi-t-BuMe2SiCl afforded, in each case, a mixture of isomeric enol ethers (26 → 42 + 44 (1:1); 27 → 43 + 45 (1:9); 28 → 56 + 58 (1:1); 29 → 57 + 59 (4:1)). Thermolysis (150–175 °C) of these mixtures, followed by acid hydrolysis of the resultant products, gave the 4-cyclohepten-1-ones 54, 55, 64, and 65, admixed with the corresponding 3-methylenecyclopentenes 52, 53, 62, and 63. On the other hand, treatment of the trans-2-vinylcyclopropyl ketones 70–74 with i-Pr2NLi–t-BuMe2SiCl provided exclusively or predominantly the enol ethers 75–79. Thermolysis (230 °C) of the latter materials and subsequent acid hydrolysis of the resultant products 80, 50, 51, 60, and 61 afforded the 4-cyclopenten-1-ones 38, 54, 55, 64, and 65.

δ-Hydroxyvaleraldehyde, obtained by acid hydrolysis of dihydropyran, is a convenient starting material for the synthesis of D,L-lysine. Application to the aldehyde of the Bucherer modification of the Strecker synthesis for α-amino acids yields 5-δ-hydroxybutylhydantoin which is hydrolyzed into D,L-α-amino-ε-hydroxycaproic acid. D,L-Lysine is obtained from 5-δ-hydroxybutylhydantoin by bromination with hydrobromic acid into 5-δ-bromobutylhydantoin, amination of the bromo compound with ammonia, and hydrolysis of the hydantoin ring into D,L-lysine, readily isolated as the dipicrate.

Soluble tetra(pyrazino)tetraazaporphyrin was synthesized by the reaction of bicyclo[2.2.2]octadiene-fused dicyanopyrazine. The retro Diels-Alder reaction of the soluble tetra(pyrazino)tetraazaporphyrin gave a tetra(quinoxalino)tetraazaporphyrin in quantitative yield.

A convenient synthesis of 1-(p-chlorophenoxy )isoquinoline-3,4-diame is described. Condensation with ethyl pyruvate gave entry to the tricyclic title system, and some further nucleophilic displacement reactions of substituent groups are described. The direction of ring closure in the tricycle formation was proved by determining the crystal structure of one of the derivatives; rhombohedral crystals of (3b) belong to the space group R3 with a 21.822(5)Ǻ, α 116.81(2)° and Z 12. Full-matrix refinement using 3093 reflections converged at R 0.085.

The tert-butyl propiolate ion serves as a convenient and efficient nucleophile in boron trifluoride-catalyzed openings of homochiral, mono-substituted epoxides. The resulting tert-butyl 5-hydroxy-2-alkynoates are converted into the title compounds upon semihydrogenation followed by acid hydrolysis. Specific examples include the synthesis of parasorbic acid and massoilactone, two naturally derived lactones of the present type. The scope of the synthetic protocol is discussed.
