The d,l-(1a) and meso-forms (1b) of alpha,alpha'-dihydroxy-alpha,alpha'-dimethyladipic acid, dilactone (3), diiminodilactone (4), and lactonolactam (5) were obtained by the reaction of acetonylacetone with KCN and HCl. The transformations of 1 to the esters 2, dilactone 3 to 1a, and diiminodilactone 4 to dilactone 3 were studied. It was shown that 3 can be readily obtained from 1a by thermolysis, acid catalysis, and DCC action as well as by acid catalyzed cyclization of 2a, while dilactone 3 can be obtained from 1b and 2b in negligible yield only under drastic conditions, obviously, due to the partial epimirization of the meso-forms. The mild thermolysis of 1b leads to trans-lactonoacid (6), from which the ester 7 has been obtained. The effective acid catalyzed cyclization of amides 8 and 9 to 3, lactamoamide 12 to 5, and amide 14 to model lactone 13 was found. The NMR spectra of the products were studied, and a H-1 NMR test was suggested for identification of d,l- and meso-forms 1 and 2. The stereochemistry of monolactones 6, 7, 9, 10a, 10b, 11 and dilactone 3 was established. The differences in the chemical behavior of alpha,alpha'-dihydroxyglutaric and adipic acids were explained by the significant reduction of the non-bonded interactions to the substituents in the corresponding monolactones during the transfer from 1,3- to 1,4-substituted systems.
