The reaction between 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-1,5-di-O-mesyl-D-glucitol (2) and potassium superoxide resulted in the loss of H-4 and the 5-mesyloxy (as well as 1-mesyloxy) substituent, and an almost quantitative conversion into enol ether 4, i.e., 1,3,4,5-tetra-O-benzyl-3-dehydro-2-deoxy-L-threo-hex-2-enitol. When the reaction was performed with 8, in which the 1-O-mesyl group (of 2) is replaced by O-(methoxy)trityl, the outcome was wholly different: an olefin was formed through the removal of a primary (H-6) rather than a secondary (H-4) proton, and nucleophilic displacement also took place. Results similar to those for 8 were obtained with the 2-epimer of 2, i.e., 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-1,5-di-O-mesyl-D-mannitol (12). It is suggested that selective displacement of the 1-O-mesyl group of 2 by superoxide generates a 1-peroxy anion (6) that abstracts H-4 intramolecularly, promoting concomitant loss of the 5-mesyloxy group. The transition state for proton abstraction within anion 6 appears to be more stable than that of the corresponding anion in the manno series, accounting for the different reaction routes for 2 and 12. Elimination occurred also in the reduction of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranose with sodium borohydride in 2-propanol, en route to 2, affording 2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-threo-hex-2-enitol (21). The lH nmr spectra of alditol derivatives 2, 8, and 12 show that these molecules depart substantially from extended zigzag conformations, in contrast to configurationally related peracetylated acyclic derivatives.

A new, six-step synthesis of 3β-hydroxy-14β-androst-5-en-17-one (IX) starting from 3β-hydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one has been elaborated. Reduction of acetate X with sodium borohydride afforded 17α-hydroxy-14β-androst-5-en-3β-yl acetate (XI). The corresponding 17β-derivative XIV was obtained by epimerization of 17α-O-tosyl derivative XIII with sodium nitrite in hexamethylphosphoramide. The 13C and 1H NMR spectra of 14β-androstane derivatives are discussed.

Ketoester I was reduced to diol VI. The higher reactivity of its primary hydroxy group was made use of for the preparation of 12α-hydroxy derivatives VII, VIII and X the oxidation of which led to oxo derivatives XII, XIII and XIV. The reduction of the 12-oxo group in compounds XII and XIV with lithium aluminium hydride takes place stereospecifically under formation of 12α-hydroxy derivatives VII and X, while on reduction with sodium in 1-propanol corresponding 12β-hydroxy derivatives XV and XVI are also formed. Reduction of the unsaturated ketone XVII with sodium borohydride gave unsaturated alcohols XVIII and XX. As acetoxy ketone XXIV was obtained from olefin XIX in a 12% yield only, its alternative preparation was carried out from acetoxy ketone XXXIV via the intermediates XXXII, XXXV, XXVIII and XXXI in an overall yield of 27%. The structures of the derivatives of 12-lupene (III, V, XVII, XIX and XXI), 12-lupanol (II, VII, X, XV, XXXI and XXVII) and 12-lupanone (I, XII, XIII, XIV, XXIII, XXIV, XXXIII and XXXIV) were confirmed by the analysis of their 1H NMR spectra.

The synthesis of provitamin D analogue 19-(phenylsulfonyl)androsta-5,7-diene-3β,17β-diyl 3-acetate 17-pivalate (20) has been accomplished from 19-hydroxyandrost-5-ene-3β,17β-diyl 3-acetate 17-pivalate. 19-(Phenylsulfonyl)androst-5-ene-3β,17β-diyl 3-acetate 17-pivalate (10), a precursor of 20, was first obtained in low yield in the nucleophilic displacement reactions of 19-halogenated-5-ene steroids with sodium benzenesulfinate. Then a more efficient method has been used, which involves protection of the double bond as an epoxide. Introduction of the C(7)-C(8) double bond into olefin 10 has been also achieved in two ways. The first involved bromination-dehydrobromination and the other consisted of an allylic oxidation of olefin 10 leading to enone and the Bamford-Stevens reaction of its tosylhydrazone. UV irradiation of 5,7-diene 20 resulted in formation of a complex mixture of products. The structures of five isolated compounds were established on the basis of their 1H NMR spectra and mechanistic rationale.

The annellation of 1-4 benzene rings to carbocyclic 8-rings increases stepwise the activation barrier for the ring inversion. A drastic consequence of the steric hindrance in the transition state is the rigidity of 9,10-dihydro-tribenzo[a,c,e]cyclooctenes at room temperature. With the aid of a complete analysis of the 1H NMR spectra a decision is possible between fixed C2-conformations (e.g. 8) and Cs-conformations (e.g. 9).

It was found that three crystalline forms of ethylene glycol dibenzoate can be prepared. Infrared and Raman spectra of these three forms, as well as of the glassy and liquid states, were measured. From 3JHH coupling constants obtained by analysis of the 13C satellite band of the -CH2- group in 1H NMR spectra, and from the 3JCH coupling constants of the -CO.O.CH2- fragment obtained by analysis of the carbonyl band in 13C NMR spectra it was found that in the liquid state the -CH2-CH2- group exists predominantly in the gauche conformational structure, and the bonds C-O-C-C assume predominantly a trans orientation. The results of the analysis of NMR and vibrational spectra were used for the structural interpretation of conformationally sensitive bands in vibrational spectra of ethylene glycol dibenzoate.

Reaction of the aldehyde I with the lithium salt of 1-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)-2-propyne yielded the compounds II and IV. From the compound II the lactone XII was prepared via the intermediates III and X, the lactone XVIII was prepared from the substance IV via the intermediates V and XVI. The unsaturated lactones XII and XVIII were also prepared by sulfenylation and dehydrosulfenylation of the saturated lactones XIII and XIX. Based on chemical correlation and 1H-NMR spectra analyses of the compounds II and IV, the lactone XII was assigned the 20R-configuration whereas the lactone XVIII was allotted the 20S-configuration.

4-Arilidene-5-(N,N-dimethyliminium)-2-(4,5-dihydrofurfurylidene)-N,N-dimethyliminium bisperchlorate I undergoes a 1,4-addition reaction with organic bases under re-formation of the furan nucleus; this behaviour has been utilized in the preparation of new 4-substituted 5-(N,N-dimethylamino)-2-furancarbaldehydes II, III. The structure of the prepared compounds has been confirmed by 13C and 1H NMR spectra.

The 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 carbaborane reacts with sodium in liquid ammonia with the formation of 6-CB9H12- which was used as a starting compound for preparing the 4-CB8H14, 9-L-6-CB9H13 (L = (CH3)2S, CH3CN and P(C6H5)3), 1-(η5-C5H5)-1,2-FeCB9H10-, and 2,3-(η5-C5H5)2-2,31-Co2CB9H10- carboranes. The 4-CB8H14 compound was dehydrogenated at 623 K to give 4-(7)-CB8H12 carborane. Base degradation of 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 in methanol resulted in the formation of 3,4-μ-N(CH3)3CH-B5H10. The structure of all compounds was proposed on the basis of their 11B and 1H NMR spectra and X-ray diffraction was used in the case of the transition metal complexes.

The title amino derivatives VI and XIV were prepared by nucleophilic substitution of p-toluenesulfonyl derivatives II and XVII with sodium azide or hydrazine and subsequent reduction. Nucleophilic substitution of compounds II and XVII with sodium benzoate was also investigated. The 1H NMR spectra of the substances prepared are discussed.
