During the last twenty years, our research group has been working with aromatic nitrosubstituted compounds acting as electrophiles in Polar Diels-Alder (P-DA) reactions with different dienes of diverse nucleophilicity. In this type of reaction, after the cycloaddition reaction, the nitrated compounds obtained as the [4+2] cycloadducts suffer cis-extrusion with the loss of nitrous acid and a subsequent aromatization. In this form, the reaction results are irreversible. On the other hand, the microwave-assisted controlled heating become a powerful tool in organic synthesis as it makes the reaction mixture undergo heating by a combination of thermal effects, dipolar polarization and ionic conduction. As the Diels-Alder (D-A) reaction is one of the most important process in organic synthesis, the microwave (MW) irradiation was applied instead of conventional heating, and this resulted in better yields and shorter reaction times. Several substituted heterocyclic compounds were used as electrophiles and different dienes as nucleophiles. Two experimental situations are involved: one in the presence of Protic Ionic Liquids (PILs) as solvent and the other under solvent-free conditions. The analysis is based on experimental data and theoretical calculations.

The anomeric imido esters 5 and 6, appropriate precursors for C-nucleoside synthesis, were prepared and utilized as heterodienophiles in a Diels-Alder reaction with inverse electron demand to yield the novel, protected 1.2.4-triazine C-nucleosides 8 and 9. They could be deprotected by treatment with 70% trifluoroacetic acid to furnish the free C-nucleosides 10 and 11. The triazine „aglycon“ of 8 contains an electron deficient diazadiene system, highly activated to react with various electron rich dienophiles such as enamines, enol ethers and several cyclic ketene acetals in an „inverse“ [4+2]-cycloaddition reaction. The Diels-Alder adducts spontaneously eliminate N2 and after follow-up reactions the O-TBDPS protected pyridine-C-nucleosides 13, 15, 17,19, 21 and 23 are formed. Removal of the protecting group by treatment with CF3CO2H /H2O leads to the corresponding 2’,3’-dideoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl- pyridines.

Mechanophores are molecules that undergo productive, covalent chemical transformations in response to mechanical force. Over the last decade, a variety of mechanochromic mechanophores have been developed that enable the direct visualization of stress in polymers and polymeric materials through changes in color and chemiluminescence. The recent introduction of mechanochemically gated photoswitching extends the repertoire of polymer mechanochromism by decoupling the mechanical activation from the visible response, enabling the mechanical history of polymers to be recorded and read on-demand using light. Here, we discuss advances in mechanochromic mechanophores and present our design of a cyclopentadiene–maleimide Diels–Alder adduct that undergoes a force-induced retro-[4+2] cycloaddition reaction to reveal a latent diarylethene photoswitch. Following mechanical activation, UV light converts the colorless diarylethene molecule into the colored isomer via a 6π-electrocyclic ring-closing reaction. Mechanically gated photoswitching expands on the fruitful developments in mechanochromic polymers and provides a promising platform for further innovation in materials applications including stress sensing, patterning, and information storage.1 Introduction to Polymer Mechanochemistry2 Mechanochromic Reactions for Stress Sensing3 Regiochemical Effects on Mechanophore Activation4 Mechanochemically Gated Photoswitching5 Conclusions

The title compounds, C21H16O2S2(I) and C25H20O2(II), are products of a tandem `pincer' Diels–Alder reaction consisting of [2 + 2] cycloadditions between benzo[c]furan and cyclopentanone. Each comprises a fused tetracyclic ring system containing two five-membered rings (inenvelopeconformations with the O atom as the flap) and six-membered rings (inboatconformations). In addition, two thiophene rings in (I) and two phenyl rings in (II) are attached to the tetracyclic ring system. The cyclopentanone ring adopts atwistedconformation in (I) and anenvelopeconformation in (II). In (I), the thiophene rings are positionally disordered over two sets of sites, with occupancy ratios of 0.901 (2):0.099 (2) and 0.666 (2):0.334 (2). In (II), the oxygen atom of the cyclopentanone ring is rotationally disordered over two sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.579 (4):0.421 (4). The molecular structure of (I) is stabilized by an intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond, which generates anS(7) ring motif. In the crystal, the molecules are linkedviaweak C—H...O hydrogen bonds, which generateR22(16) ring motifs in (I) andC(8) chains in (II). In both structures, the crystal packing also features C—H...π interactions. The crystal studied of compound (I) was twinned by non-merohedry. The twin component is related by the twin law [−1 0 0 −0.101 1 −0.484 0 0 −1] operated by a twofold rotation axis parallel to thebaxis. The structure of (I) was refined with a twin scale factor of 0.275 (2).

The structure of the compound obtained on heating the naturally occurring clerodane furanoditerpene (1) had been formulated as (2) on the basis of spectroscopic studies. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study on the dihydro derivative of (2) has confirmed this and provides support for the stereochemistry previously assigned to (1) on the basis of chemical evidence.
