Andrographolide: Further transformations and stereochemical evidence; the structure of isoandrographolide

TL;DR: In this paper, a number of new transformation products of andrographolide and of its acid transformation product, isoandrograpolide, have been prepared; the structure of the iso-andrographylide has been elucidated; and the chemical results described afford proof of the stereochemistry at C-3 and C-9 of the bicyclic nucleus of androgramolide; the assigned configuration of the substituents at C -4 is supported by NMR study.
Journal ArticleDOI

NMR spectroscopy of benzocyclobutene and biphenylene

TL;DR: In this article, the dihedral angles between the CH bonds of benzocyclobutene indicate that the four-membered ring is skewed and the presence of two (and not three) ring currents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Some synthetic studies in the isoquinoline series

TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis of new phenolic N-acyl-1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines (18, 20, 21, and 27 ) is described; oxidation of the latter compounds under various conditions afforded no isolable products.
Journal ArticleDOI

Condensed cyclobutane aromatic compounds—XXIII

TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction of bromine with 1,2,5,6-dibenzocyclo-octatetraene involves normal halogen addition to the olefinic linkages, rather than transannular addition as previously assumed.
