Sodium Borohydride Reduction

3-Ethylthioindole has been prepared by Fischer cyclization of the condensation product of phenylhydrazine and ethylthioacetaldehyde diethyl acetal, and also by a route involving the reaction of ethyl iodide with the sodium borohydride reduction product of 1,2-dithiolo[4,3-b]indole-3-(4H)-thione. The last-named compound was obtained by reaction of 2-carbethoxy-indoxyl with phosphorus pentasulfide.

A reexamination of the sodium borohydride and palladium–charcoal reduction of 3-methyl-4-(o-nitrobenzylidene)-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one (3a) has revealed that the final product is 3-methyl-4-(o-aminobenzyl)-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one (5a), and not 9-hydroxy-3-methyl-3a,4,9,9a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline as claimed previously. Reduction of 3a to 5a proceeds via the 4-(o-nitrobenzyl) compound. Chemical and physical properties of 5a are described which support the assignment of this revised structure to the reduction product of 3a. Two analogs of 3a were also reduced in the same manner and yielded products analogous to 5a and not the previously claimed pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines.

Sodium Borohydride Reduction

The non-generality of the diene rule of Moscowitz, relating the helicity of a non-planar conjugated homoannular diene to the sign of its Cotton effect, is discussed. We report the preparation of 3β-bromoacetoxy-16α-ethyl-162-cyano-162,21-cyclo-5α-pregna-17,21-diene, the X-ray crystallographic analysis of which confirms, as reported by Ahmed and Pollard, the stereochemistry which we previously assigned to the parent alcohol and acetate. We also report the synthesis of the methyl ketonic analogues of these dienonitriles and show that their sodium borohydride reduction product still has a Cotton effect in contradiction to the diene rule. The implications of these and other experiments are discussed.
