The ring expansion of a dimethyl-substituted vinylcyclobutene derivative by metal complexes that can undergo an inner-sphere electron transfer
摘要:
The ring expansion of a dimethyl-substituted vinylcyclobutene derivative to the corresponding dimethyl-substituted cyclohexadiene or aromatic compound was studied. It was found that metal complexes of Ni(I), Ti(III), Sm(II), and Fe(II), which can undergo an inner-sphere electron-transfer reaction, allow the rearrangement to occur at room temperature. Other oxidation states of these metals and complexes that can only undergo an outer-sphere electron-transfer process do not promote this ring expansion reaction. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A.

The rearrangement of 3-vinylcyclobutene derivatives promoted by metallic Lewis acids
摘要:
The rearrangement of 3-vinylcyclobutene derivatives in the presence of metallic Lewis acids is discussed. Although most of the Lewis acids tried were too weak to cause any chemistry to occur, WCl6 and AlCl3 promote an interesting isomerization reaction. Especially significant is, for the first time, starting with a vinylcyclobutene, a product with a five-membered ring rather than a six-membered ring was obtained. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
