Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a mesoporous aluminosilicate MCM-41 catalyst was used to accelerate the alkylation of 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol with cinnamyl alcohol.
Abstract: Owing to its large molecular size, alkylation of 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol with cinnamyl alcohol does not take plAcc using HY zeolite (pore opening 7.4 A) as catalyst even after controlled steaming treatment to increase its mesoporosity; by contrast, novel mesoporous aluminosilicate MCM-41 catalyses this reaction giving rise to 6,8-di-tert-butyl-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro[4H]benzopyran (arising from intramolecular cyclization of the primary cinnamylphenol) together with 4-tert-butylphenol and small amounts of 6-tert-butyl-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro[4H]benzopyran.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the dicyanomethyl group is released from the 4 position of the starting material, and that it reacts at the 2-position of the newly formed iminium ion.
Abstract: Derivatives of dibenzo [b,d]pyran, [1]benzopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine, [1]benzopyron[3,4-c]pyridine and [1]benzopyrano[4,3,2-de][1,6]naphthyridine are obtained from the reaction of 2-(2-amino-3-cyno-4H-[1]benzopyran-4-yl)propane-1,3-dinitrile with compounds containing a reactive methylene group. Consideration of these reactions suggests that the dicyanomethyl group is released from the 4-position of the starting material, and that it mean reacts at the 2-position of the newly formed iminium ion. The 4-position is now available for Michael addition of a compound containing a reactive methylene group, but the nature of the final product depends on the substituents on the methylene group.

TL;DR: In this article, the benzopyran derivatives 1a-d were prepared in a biomimetic type reaction from their presumed natural precursor 3-oxo-retro-α-ionol, which was available from α-ionone by tert-butyl chromate oxidation, reduction with NaBH 4, and subsequent rearrangement of the 7,8 double bond.
Abstract: The benzopyran derivatives 1a-d were prepared in a biomimetic type reaction from their presumed natural precursor 3-oxo-retro-α-ionol, which was available from α-ionone by tert-butyl chromate oxidation, reduction with NaBH 4 , and subsequent rearrangement of the 7,8 double bond. The so-obtained geometrical isomers of 3-oxo-retro-α-ionol (4a/b) were separated by preparative and analytical multilayer coil countercurrent chromatography. Racemic 3-oxo-retro-α-ionol (4a) was esterified with (R)-(-)-2-phenylpropionic acid, and the resulting diastereomeric esters (5a/b) were isolated in pure form by preparative HPLC. Configuration at C-9 was determined by 1 H NMR spectroscopy. The isomeric ketols 6a/b obtained from esters 5a/b by enzymatic hydrolysis were subjected to thermal treatment (simultaneous distillation extraction, pH 1), yielding two pairs of diastereomeric 3,4-dihydro-3-oxoedulans (1a/b and 1c/d). The absolute configuration at C-8a was established by NOE experiments. Using on-line coupled multidimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry [DB-Wax/octakis(2,6-di-O-methyl-3-O-pentyl)-γ-cyclodextrin] with selected ion monitoring mode, enantiodifferentiation of 1a-d in a number of natural sources was carried out.
