TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of yomogi alcohol (2, 5, 5-trimethylhepta-3, 6-dien-2-ol, 2) is described, and experiments directed towards its allylic rearrangement to artemisia alcohol detervatives have been carried out.
Abstract: The synthesis of yomogi alcohol (2, 5, 5-trimethylhepta-3,6-dien-2-ol, 2) is described, and experiments directed towards its allylic rearrangement to artemisia alcohol detervatives have been carried out. Acidic reagents open the ring of yomogi alcohol epoxide (16) at with participation of the 6,7-double-bond, a shift of the vinyl group results to yield a compound with the santolinyl skeleton. The same reagents are without effect when this double bond reduced. Action of butyllithium of the benzaldehyde acetal (41) of 2, 5-dimethyl-4-vinyl-2, dihydroxy-hex-5-ene (28), obtained by acid-catalyzed ring opening of yomogi alcohol epoxide in the presence of benzaldehyde, leads to santolinatriene (42). This vinyl shift is not observed in the case of O-acetyl yomogi alcohol epoxide (46), from white a compound believed to be an oxetan 48 (R COCH3) is formed with concomitent shift of the acetate group. Further unusual reactions of the oxetan are described, and some observation about the epoxidation of sterically hindered allyl alcohols and their acetates are made.

TL;DR: Several mono and bistrithiocarbonates were synthesized by the reaction of the corresponding mono and bisepoxides with carbon disulfide in the presence of potassium hydroxide as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Several mono and bistrithiocarbonates were synthesized by the reaction of the correspondingmono and bisepoxides with carbon disulfide in the presence of potassiumhydroxide. These trithiocarbonates were successfully obtained even in the presenceof a catalytic amount of potassium hydroxide. Potassium methoxide instead of potassiumhydroxide as catalyst also gave trithiocarbonate in good yield.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, an alternate copolymerization of carbon dioxide with optically active propylene oxide using a diethylzinc-water system as catalyst was investigated, and it was shown that the ring opening of propylene dioxide takes place predominantly at the methylene-Oxygen linkage in the copolymersization, which suggests the anionic nature of the reaction.
Abstract: Alternate copolymerization of carbon dioxide with optically active propylene oxide using a diethylzinc–water system as catalyst was investigated. The hydrolysis of the copolymer, poly(propylene carbonate), followed by subsequent treatment with p-nitrobenzoyl chloride, transformed the epoxide unit of the copolymer into the form of propylene glycol bis-p-nitrobenzoate. The determination of the optical activity of this ester led to the conclusion that the ring opening of propylene oxide takes place predominantly at the methylene–Oxygen linkage in the copolymerization, which suggests the anionic nature of the reaction. The optical rotatory behavior of the copolymer is also described.

TL;DR: In an aprotischem medium (benzene), cyclone 3 adds diazomethane to form the Δ1-pyrazoline 4a, which by thermolysis in xylene gives the cyclopropane 7a and in the higher boiling tetralin the phenol 8a as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Das Cyclon 3 addiert in aprotischem Medium (Benzol) Diazomethan zum Δ1-Pyrazolin 4a das bei der Thermolyse in Xylol vorwiegend das Cyclopropanderivat 7a, im hohersiedenden Tetralin das Phenol 8a lieferte. Saure Zersetzung von 4a gab das isomere Phenol 6a, das in konz. Schwefelsaure Ringschlus zum Fluorenon 9a erlitt. In protischem Losungsmittel (Methanol) reagierte unter N2-Abspaltung die CO-Gruppe, wobei teils unter Ringerweiterung ein drittes Phenol 13a, teils das Epoxid 11a entstand; letzteres lieferte in saurem Medium das 6-Hydroxy-fulven 12. — Die Umsetzung von 3 mit Diazoathan verlief weitgehend analog, doch entstanden einige Produkte bevorzugt, so namentlich 5b und 14b. Phenyldiazomethan und Diazoessigester lieferten mit 3 in Benzol nur die stabilen Δ2-Pyrazoline 5c und 5d. — Methanol, Athanol oder Wasser addieren sich an eine CC-Doppelbindung von 3 zu Verbindungen 17, wobei nicht nur Alkalihydroxid oder Triathylamin, sondern auch Phenyl-diazomethan und Benzoyldiazomethane als „basische” Katalysatoren dienen konnen. Einige Umsetzungen von 17 bzw. 20 werden beschrieben. Reactions of Cyclopentadienones with Diazoalkanes, 7 Experiments with Dimethyl 2-Oxo-4.5-diphenylcyclopentadiene-1.3-dicarboxylate In an aprotic medium (benzene) the cyclone 3 adds diazomethane to form the Δ1-pyrazoline 4a, which by thermolysis in xylene gives the cyclopropane 7a and in the higher boiling tetralin the phenol 8a. Acidolysis of 4a yielded the isomeric phenol 6a, which is cyclized by conc. H2SO4 to the fluorenone 9a. Reaction of 3 with diazomethane in a protic medium (methanol) results in the elimination of N2 and formation of a third phenol 13a and an epoxide 11a; in an acid medium the latter was rearranged to the fulvene 12. — Reaction of 3 with diazoethane proceeded in a similar way, but some products were formed preferentially, such as 5b and 14b. Phenyldiazomethane and ethyl diazoacetate reacted with 3 to give only the stable Δ2-pyrazolines 5c and 5d, respectively. — Methanol, ethanol or water are added to one CC-double bond of 3 to yield products 17. In this reaction not only alkali hydroxide or triethyl amine but also phenyldiazomethane, diazoacetic ester and benzoyldiazomethanes can serve as „basic” catalysts. Some reactions of 17 and 20 are described.

TL;DR: In this article, a radiation-sensitive catalyst precursor, a gelation inhibitor in the form of an nitrile compound such as acetonitrile present in small amounts up to several percent by weight, is presented.
Abstract: Polymerization of epoxide monomers and prepolymers, and of other materials polymerizable through the action of cationic catalysts, is controlled in compositions essentially free of volatile solvents by providing in such compositions, in association with a radiation-sensitive catalyst precursor, a gelation inhibitor in the form of an nitrile compound such as acetonitrile present in small amounts up to several percent by weight.

TL;DR: The absolute configuration of the predominant Cecropia hormone, methyl 12,14-dihomojuvenate, has been determined to be methyl (E,E)-(10R,11S)-(+)-10,11-epoxy-7-ethyl-3, 11-dimethyl-2, 6-tridecadienoate (I).
Abstract: The absolute configuration of the predominant Cecropia hormone, methyl 12,14-dihomojuvenate, has been determined to be methyl (E,E)-(10R,11S)-(+)-10,11-epoxy-7-ethyl-3,11-dimethyl-2, 6-tridecadienoate (I). The less abundant hormone, methyl 12-homojuvenate, can be presumed by analogy to have the corresponding 3,7,11-trimethyldienoate structure (II). The assignment has been established with microamounts of substance by applying Horeau's method to the glycol derivative (III) of the hormone. The course of the perchloric acid-catalyzed epoxide ring opening of I was checked by conducting the conversion in 18O-labeled water. It has been ascertained that the configuration at the secondary hydroxyl group of the resulting III remained unchanged. On the other hand, the hydration proceeded with a surprisingly high rate of cis opening.

TL;DR: Ethereal hydrogen chloride has been used to convert trans-1-acetyl- and 1-benzoyl-2-(o-nitrophenyl)ethylene oxides into the corresponding 6-chloro-1,3-dihydroxyquinolin-4-ones as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Ethereal hydrogen chloride converts trans-1-acetyl- and 1-benzoyl-2-(o-nitrophenyl)ethylene oxides (1c and a) in low yield into the corresponding 6-chloro-1,3-dihydroxyquinolin-4-ones (2a and c). In contrast, reaction of the cis-benzoyl epoxide (1b) or of the 1,1-diacylethylene oxides (1d and e) with ethereal hydrogen chloride affords high yields of the compounds (2a and c). In the presence of hydroquinone these reactions give the chlorine-free 1,3-dihydroxyquinolones (2b and d). The course and mechanism of the reactions are discussed.Manganese dioxide oxidation of the 1-hydroxyquinolones (2a—d) and of the reduction products (3a and b) affords the hitherto unknown quinoline-3,4-quinones (7a—d) and (8a and b).
