TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide evidence of steric control resulting in preferred substitutions at positions 2 and 5 and placement of the larger substituent at position 2 if the acetylenic precursor is disubstituted.
Abstract: Numerous new examples of the annelation reactions leading to cyclopentenone derivatives are reported They provide evidence of steric control resulting in preferred substitutions at positions 2 and 5 and placement of the larger substituent at position 2 if the acetylenic precursor is disubstituted A pathway accounting for such preference is suggested and the bulky trimethylsilyl group is utilized as a removable direction-determining group to allow synthesis of the 3- instead of 2-substituted cyclopentenones More remote substituents in the norbornene are shown to exert a significant but no longer decisive effect, so that mixtures of isomers result A 1H nmr study has shown that the ferrocenyl substituent in 7a-ferrocenyl-3a,4,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-4,7-methanoinden-1-one (IX) cannot rotate about the bond joining it to position 7a

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the title reaction in both directions in a static system and showed that at temperatures in the range 521-570 K the addition of ethylene to cyclopentadiene (CPD) results in the formation solely of norbornene (NB) and the decomposition of the latter produces only ethylene and CPD.
Abstract: The title reaction has been investigated in both directions in a static system. At temperatures in the range 521–570 K the addition of ethylene to cyclopentadiene (CPD) results in the formation solely of norbornene (NB) and the decomposition of the latter produces only ethylene and CPD. In a vessel of high surface : volume ratio, small quantities of nortricyclene are formed heterogenously. Kinetic studies support second and first orders for the addition and decomposition respectively. The mechanism C2H4+ CPD[graphic omitted]NB is almost certainly homogeneous and molecular in nature. Least means squares analysis of the data yields equations (i) and (ii). Equilibrium log(k1/s–1)=(14.26 ± 0.28)–(44.54 ± 0.72 kcal mol–1)/RTln10 (i) log (k1/l mol–1s–1)=(7.59 ± 0.63)–(23.67 ± 1.56 kcal mol–1)/RTln10 (ii) studies suggest that, for the addition, these Arrhenius parameters may be slightly high. Higher temperature investigations on this system (at equilibrium) indicate that no significant homogeneous molecular isomerisation of NB occurs with an activation energy < ca. 54 kcal mol–1.

TL;DR: The sulphonyl chlorides have been characterized as a series of polychlorobenzene- sulphonamides, some of which have been converted into N-trichloromethylsulphenyl derivatives as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: 2,3,5,6-Tetrachlorobenzenesulphonyl chloride (2) and pentachlorobenzenesulphonyl chloride (4) have been obtained from the corresponding sulphonic acids (3) and (5) by treatment with phosphorus pentachloride. The sulphonyl chlorides have been characterized as a series of polychlorobenzene- sulphonamides, some of which have been converted into N-trichloromethylsulphenyl derivatives. The reaction of 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene with chlorosulphonic acid has been reinvestigated; comparatively short reaction periods gave mainly bis(pentachloropheny1) sulphide, and prolonged heating afforded hexachlorobenzene. Possible routes to these products are briefly discussed. Attempts to obtain 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorobenzenesulphonohydrazide (10) were unsuccessful; but the corresponding sulphonyl azide (11) has been prepared and its reactions with triphenylphosphine, norbornene and cyclohexene investigated.

TL;DR: Low molecular-weight products have been obtained during ring-opening polymerization of norborene catalysed by several transition-metal halides; their identities and other evidence show that hydridometal complexes are involved in both dimerization reactions and carbene initiation.

TL;DR: The reaction of norborn-2-ene with thallium(I) acetate-iodine in several solvents has been investigated in this article, and the products have been compared with those arising from similar treatment of Norbornene with silver-I acetate−iodine, which is indicative of an ionic pathway involving initial electrophilic addition of iodine followed largely by skeletal rearrangement characteristic of the bicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl system.
Abstract: The reaction of norborn-2-ene with thallium(I) acetate–iodine in several solvents has been investigated, and the products have been compared with those arising from similar treatment of norbornene with silver(I) acetate–iodine. The product distribution in each case is indicative of an ionic pathway involving initial electrophilic addition of iodine followed largely by skeletal rearrangement characteristic of the bicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl system.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The acid-catalysed addition of acetic acid to some cyclic and strained bicyclic olefins has been investigated using trifluoromethanesulphonic acid as the catalyst as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The acid-catalysed addition of acetic acid to some cyclic and strained bicyclic olefins has been investigated using trifluoromethanesulphonic acid as the catalyst. For norbornene and related derivatives, the reaction rate was first order with respect to the catalyst acid but for cyclohexene there was evidence of a small contribution from a secondorder term. The addition was essentially non-stereospecific. Values of the kinetic isotope effect were less than unity for cyclic substrates but greater than unity for norborriene suggesting a change to rate-determining proton transfer. Activation parameters are reported together with new values for the acidity function H0 for CF3SO3H in acetic acid. The addition is discussed in terms of intimate and solvent-separated ion-pairs.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the Stockmayer-Fixman relation was used to obtain from Δ[η] a molecular-weight independent function of composition, which is indeed negative for propylene-rich copolymers and zero for a 56% ethylene copolymer.
Abstract: Intrinsic viscosities have been measured at 25° on five ethylene–propylene copolymer samples ranging in composition from 33 to 75 mole-% ethylene. The solvents used were n-C8 and n-C16 linear alkanes and two branched alkanes, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and 2,2,4,4,6,8,8-heptamethylnonane (br-C16). This choice was based on the supposition that the branched solvent would prefer the propylene segments and the linear solvent the ethylene segments, due to similarity in shape and possibly in orientational order. It was found that [η]n − [η]br ≡ Δ[η] is indeed negative for propylene-rich copolymers, zero for a 56% ethylene copolymer, and positive for ethylene-rich copolymers. The Stockmayer–Fixman relation was used to obtain from Δ[η] a molecular-weight independent function of composition. The quantities (Δ[η]/[η])(1 + aM−1/2) and Δ[η]/M are linear with the mole percent ethylene in the range investigated with 200 ≤ a ≤ 2000. The possibility of using these results for composition determination in ethylene–propylene copolymers is discussed. Intrinsic viscosities in the same solvents are reported for two samples of a terpolymer with ethylidene norbornene.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In the presence of a silylating agents the sulphenic acid intermediate can be trapped as the trimethylsilyl derivative but this, in turn, under-goes a thermal rearrangement to give the enol ether.
Abstract: When the title compound (4) is heated for 1 ½ h in refluxing benzene a mixture of ring-expanded products, (6a)(25%) and (7)(67%), is obtained. In acetic anhydride, compounds (4) gives the acetate (6b) 77% as the only significant product, and in norbornene, dinorbornyl sulphoxide (12a) 35% is formed. In the presence of a silylating agents the sulphenic acid intermediate (5a) can be trapped as the trimethylsilyl derivative (5b) but this, in turn, under-goes a thermal rearrangement to give the enol ether (13).

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the preferred endo-addition to 1,4-diphenyl-2-benzopyran-3-one (2; R1= R2= Ph) was attributed to inhibition of secondary interactions by non-coplanar phenyl substituents.
Abstract: Buta-1,3-diene, isoprene, cyclopenta-1,3-diene, dimethyl maleate, norbornadiene, norbornene, cis-but-2-ene, and cyclopentene add to 1,4-diphenyl-2-benzopyran-3-one (2; R1= R2= Ph) to give mostly exo-adducts; only for the addition of furan is the endo-adduct preferred. By comparison with the preferred endo-addition to 2-benzopyran-3-one, its 1-phenyl derivative (2; R1= Ph, R2= H), and 1,3-diphenylinden-2-one (15) the exo-selectivity in additions to (2; R1= R2= Ph) is attributed to inhibition of secondary interactions by non-coplanar phenyl substituents.

TL;DR: The reaction of solvated iodine oxide, prepared by ozonising a solution of iodine in acetic anhydride, with alkenes has been examined in this article, leading to vic-iodo-acetates, iodohydrins, and iodo-ketones.
Abstract: The reaction of solvated iodine oxide, prepared by ozonising a solution of iodine in acetic anhydride, with alkenes has been examined. The reaction is regiospecific and leads to vic-iodo-acetates, iodohydrins, and iodo-ketones. In some cases di- and tri-acetates and 2,2′-di-iodo-ethers are formed. The products from norbornene are similar to those formed with thallium(I) acetate and iodine. The mode of formation of the products is discussed and the effect of non-polar solvents is investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the hydration of norbornene (1) and nortricyclane (2) under the high temperature and dilute acid (HTDA) conditions of aqueous acetic acid at 250 °C gives as products exo-2-norborneol, endo- 2-norbornol, exo 2- and endo 2norbornyl acetate, and a mixture of stereoisomeric dinorbornyl ethers 4.2.
Abstract: The hydration of norbornene (1) and nortricyclane (2) under the high temperature and dilute acid (HTDA) conditions of aqueous acetic acid at 250 °C gives as products exo-2-norborneol, endo-2-norborneol, exo-2- and endo-2-norbornyl acetate, and a mixture of stereoisomeric dinorbornyl ethers 4. When the reactions are carried out in deuterated medium perdeuteration (>90% in one cycle) of the [2.2.1]-products is accomplished. Respectable overall yields (50–70%) of the products are obtained. Solvolysis of the products exo-norborneol, and endo-norbornyl acetate under HTDA(D) conditions also leads to perdeuterated 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, and 4.
