Synthesis of 2,5-diethynyl substituted oxepins from trans-1,4-diethynylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diols
摘要:
Reaction of trans-1,4-bis(trimethylsilylethynyl)cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diol with n-BuLi followed by methanesulfonyl chloride resulted in the formation of a dark red solid, which was identified as 2,5-bis(trimethylsilylethynyl)oxepin. Deprotection of the silyl groups resulted in the formation of 2,5-diethynyloxepin, a red, shock sensitive solid. Reaction of a differentially substituted cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diol gave a mixture of 2,5-diethynyl substituted oxepins. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Synthesis of Strained Pyridine-Containing Cyclyne via Reductive Aromatization
摘要:
The Sonogashira-Hagihara coupling reactions of 2,6-diiodopyridine and cis-3,6-diethynyl-3,6-dimethoxycy-clohexa-1,4-diene or cis-9,10-diethynyl-9,10-dimethoxy-9, 10-dihydroanthracene gave macrocyclic compounds having alternating 2,6-diethynylpyridine and 3,6-dimethoxycyclohexa-1,4-diene segments. Transformation of the C(3)-symmetric 2,6-diethynylpyridine-based cyclo-trimer was efficiently achieved using tin-mediated reductive aromatization under mild conditions.
