Solid-State Diphotocyclization of Iso- and Terephthalaldehydes via Dihalogen Substitution
摘要:
The supramolecular nonbonded C-H...X interactions between formyl hydrogens and ortho-halogen atoms (Br/Cl) have been exploited to achieve conformational control in the solid state of dimethyl-substituted iso- and terephthaladehydes (1-3) for unprecedented diphotocyclization. It is shown that the dihalogen substitution also contributes to the stability of the benzocyclobutenols relative to their precursor photoenols, so that the solid-state photolysis of dialdehydes 2b, 2c, and 3b leads to diphotocyclization to afford respectable yields of bis-benzocyclobutenols.

[Graphics]A variety of diversely substituted 2-aroylaryl radicals, generated by photoinduced homolysis of 2-bromoarylketones, is shown to undergo Pschorr cyclization to yield fluorenones in moderate to excellent yields. The photochemical results illustrate that the substituents in the two phenyl rings of the 2-bromobenzophenone skeleton exert a dramatic influence on the reactivity of the derived 2-aroylaryl radicals. The disubstitution by methoxy groups in the radical ring renders the aryl sigma-radical highly electrophilic and unreactive for hydrogen abstraction and cyclization. On the other hand, the substituents in the non-radical ring that strongly stabilize the hydrofluorenyl pi-radical, formed subsequent to the attack of the 2-aroylaryl radical on the non-radical ring, promote cyclization to furnish fluorenones in excellent isolated yields.
Self-Assembly of Conformationally Rigid Dialcohols (Bis-Benzocyclobutenols): Supramolecular Cyclophanes and Arrays
Bis-benzocyclobutenols are synthetically important intermediates, and their structures have been established for the first time. These unique molecular systems allow investigation of the hydrogen bond-mediated aggregation of diols with rigid disposition of the hydroxyl groups on both sides of a flat arene core, namely bis-benzocyclobutene. The syn-diols la and 2a were found to assemble via O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl groups into dimers, which may be termed "supramolecular cyclophanes". However, the analogous diols that are sterically encumbered by ethyl and phenyl groups were found to aggregate via adoption of tetrameric (syn-2c) or water-expanded dimeric (syn-2b) supramolecular synthons. The sterically un-hindered anti diols were found to self-assemble via helical supramolecular synthon in contrast to the sterically encumbered ones; the latter were found to display preference to undergo cyclic tetrameric aggregation. The results thus point to intriguing possibilities in the adoption of supramolecular synthons when a given diol is constrained by the obligation to exploit two or more functional groups of the same kind.
