The action of 2 equiv. of methyllithium on the monoanion of simple β-keto esters gives the β-diketone in good yield. This represents a facile and new method to achieve the C-acylation of a ketone.

The reaction of a 3-butenyl β-diketone with a catalytic amount of PdCl2(CH3CN)2 in dioxane at room temperature led to olefin hydroalkylation and formation of the corresponding 2-acylcyclohexanone in good yield as a single regioisomer. Deuterium-labeling experiments for the hydroalkylation of 7-octene-2,4-dione were in accord with a mechanism involving outer-sphere attack of the pendant enol on a palladium-complexed olefin to form a palladium cyclohexyl species, followed by palladium migration via iterative β-hydride elimination/addition and protonolysis from a palladium enolate complex. In comparison to a 3-butenyl β-diketone, reaction of a 4-pentenyl β-diketone with a catalytic amount of PdCl2(CH3CN)2 in the presence of CuCl2 led to oxidative alkylation and formation of the corresponding 2-acyl-3-methyl-2-cyclohexenone in good yield as a single isomer. Unactivated olefins tethered to less reactive carbon nucleophiles such as β-keto esters, α-aryl ketones, and even dialkyl ketones underwent palladium-catalyzed hydroalkylation in the presence of Me3SiCl or HCl to form the corresponding cyclohexanones in moderate-to-good yield with high regioselectivity.

Under catalysis of NaOH or KOH adsorbed on glass wool and by using steam distillation, (20R,S)-4,4,5,14-tetramethyl-18,19-dinor-13,17-seco-5β,8α,9β,10α,14β-cholestane-13,17-dione (1) and 3,14-dioxo-14,15-seco-5α-cholestan-15-al (4) gave good yield (>59%) of the corresponding tricyclic compounds (8a, 8b and 10a) via a retro-Michael reaction at 250 °C. While 5-oxo-4-nor-3,5-secocholestan-3-oic acid (6) and ethyl 5-oxo-4-nor-3,5-secocholestan-3-oate (7) afforded low yield (<15%) of the retro-Michael cleavage products (12a, 12b) at the same conditions. Thus, the retro-Michael reaction worked well for 1,5-diketones and 1,5-keto aldehydes but gave poor yield for 1,5-keto esters and 1,5-keto acids.

A new method for preparing organometallic and monosilyl complexes of Pd(II), based on the interaction between [PdCl(SnCl3)L2] (L = PPh3 or P(p-Tol)3) and appropriate organohalogen compound or chlorosilane has been developed. The products without tin have been obtained with good yield (85-97%). The reaction mechanism has been proposed on the basis of kinetic and chemometric investigations of the reaction between [PdCl(SnCl3)(PPh3)2] and Me2SiCl2.

The chemistry of the cyclobutadiene metal complexes of the last decade is reviewed. Emphasis is given to the organic reactions involving the cyclobutadiene ligand. Dichoro, dimethyl, and diphenyl ketenes were used in [2+21-cycloaddition reactions with 1,3-dienes, which included 1-vinyl cyclohexene, 2-triethylsilylbuta-l,3-diene and 1- and 2- trimethylsilyloxybuta-1,3-dienes. Thecycloadditions were rarely found to be regiospecific and nearly always low yielding. The produced cyclobutanones were very often unstable. 2,2-Diphenyl-3-(1'-triethylsilyl-1'-ethenyl) cyclobutanone was prepared but it was found not to produce the expected 1,3-divinyl cyclobutan-l-ol when treated with vinylmagnesium bromide. 2,2-Dimethyl and 2,2-diphenyl-3-ethoxy cyclobutanones were prepared and their reactions with vinylmagnesium bromide and methyl lithium were investigated. Ethyl 4,4-diphenylbut-3-enoate was formed when 2,2-diphenyl-3-ethoxy cyclobutanone was treated with vinylmagnesium bromide. As well as the above ester, the same cyclobutanone gave 5,5-diphenylpent4-en-2-one when treated with methyl lithium. 2,2-Dimethyl3-ethoxy cyclobutanone gave the expected alcohols when reacted with the same two reagents. 1-(11-Phenyl-2'-propenyl)-2,2-dimethyl-3-vinyl cyclobutane was synthesised starting from a-pinene. The best route was found to involve the preparation of pinonic aldehyde by ozonolysis of q-pinene. The aldehyde was reduced to pinonic alcohol which was then converted to pinonic iodide by treatment with triphenylphosphine and iodine. The iodide was dehydrohalogenated by a new method, described in chapter six of the thesis, to givel-acetyl-2,2-dimethy1-3-vinyl cyclobutane. A subsequent Wittig reaction gave the desired divinyl cyclobutane. Finally, the development of a new methodology is described for the dehydrohalogenation of primary bromides and iodides. It involves a novel, facile synthesis of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) nickel. The primary halide is mixed with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0lundec-7-ene and the mixture added to the low valent nickel reagent. The alkene was formed in good yield after twelve hours of stirring at room temperature under argon. The reaction was applied to a few halides and it was found to be compatible with alcohol, ketone, ester, and ether groups.

SummaryA simple method for purification of human prothrombin from ACT) plasma of one single individual is described. This method is based on three steps :1. isolation of crude prothrombin complex by barium citrate adsorption;2. first purification by hydroxyapatite chromatography;3. further purification by DEAE Sephadex chromatography.The final product was obtained with a good yield and exhibited less than 5 p. cent contamination. The human purified prothrombin obtained in this way displays :– one single chain by SDS electrophoresis,– a molecular weight of 75,000-80,000 daltons,– a pi value pH 4.4 by electrofocusing,– Alanine as थ terminal residue.Amino-acid analysis is reported.

The epoxy allysilanes 7 and 16 were synthesized by stereoselective routes from β-keto esters and cyclized with Lewis acids in good yield. The monocyclic product from 7 was converted into (±)-karahana ether (10), and the bicyclic product from 20 was used in a synthesis of the 3-hydroxylabdadienoic acid 24b.[Formula: see text]
