A series of trifluoromethyl-substituted 3-alkoxypyridinol derivatives has been deprotected to furnish pyridine-3,4-diol derivatives in good yields. The X-ray crystal structure analysis proved that a 1:1 mixture of pyridine-3,4-diols and their pyridin-4-one tautomers exist in the solid state. Subsequent conversion into bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonate)s were smoothly achieved. The obtained compounds were used as substrates for palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. Fluorescence measurements of the biscoupled products showed a maximum of emission in the violet region of the spectrum.

Dissymmetry of the photoproduct was induced by using a chiral substituent, (S)-methylphenylalanine, in the title compound {N-4-(2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoyl)benzoyl]-(S)-phenylalanine methyl ester (I)}. On irradiation with light from a 250 W ultra-high-pressure Hg lamp for 7 h through a long-pass filter, the photoreaction in a crystal was 100% complete without the loss of crystallinity. The crystal structures (I), before, and (II) {N-[4-(7-hydroxy-3,5-diisopropyl-8,8-dimethylbicyclo[4.2.0]octa-1,3,5-trien-7-yl)benzoyl]-(S)-phenylalanine methyl ester}, after photocyclization, have been determined by X-ray diffraction. For comparison, a crystal structure analysis has also been carried out for the photoproduct (III) of the 3′-COOMe derivative after recrystallization {methyl 3-(7-hydroxy-3,5-diisopropyl-8,8-dimethylbicyclo[4.2.0]octa-1,3,5-trien-7-yl)benzoate}. The dihedral angle between the central carbonyl plane and the triisopropylphenyl ring deviates from 90° by 10 (1)° in (I), which makes an imbalance in the intramolecular O(carbonyl)...H(methine) distances of the isopropyl groups at positions 2 and 6. The crystal structure of (II) indicates that the nearer methine H was predominantly abstracted by the carbonyl O atom in the reaction. The absolute configuration around the asymmetric C atom in the cyclobutenol ring of the product is S.

The chiral diphosphine 1 reacts with [(diolefin)Rh(THF)2]PF6 (diolefine: 1.5-cyclooctadiene, norbornadiene) to form the complexes 4 and 5. The structure of 4 was determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. 4 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21. The lattice constants (at 180 K) are: a = 974.0(6); b = 3889.2(29); c = 1309.4(5) pm; β = 105.25(4)°. The hydrogenation of methyl-α-acetamidocinnamate in the presence of 5 yields (R)-N-acetylphenylalanine methyl ester with 33% enantiomeric excess.

Protodesilylation of diphenylsilane with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and subsequent reaction of the obtained bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy)silane with tris(trimethylsilyl)silyllithium (1) (molar ratio 1:2) afforded bis[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]silane (8). Methyl-bis[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]silane (3) and phenyl-bis[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]silane (10) were obtained by coupling reactions of 1 with MeHSiCl2 or PhHSiCl2, respectively, (2:1). By treatment with HCBr3, the H-silanes 3, 8, and10 were converted into the bromosilanes [(Me3Si)3Si]2SiR1R2 (9: R1 = R2 = Br; 11: R1 = Me, R2 = Br; 12: R1 = Ph, R2 = Br). X-ray crystal structure analyses, performed for 3, 10 and 12, confirmed the expected distortions of the molecular skeletons of the compounds. Thus, e.g., in 10, the spatial demand of the two extended hemispherical hypersilyl groups forces a widening of the Si-Si-Si angle at the central Si atom to a value of 128.3°.Key words: silanes, sterically congested, bis(hypersilyl)silanes, hypersilylsilanes, bis(hypersilyl)germanes, tris(trimethylsilyl)silylsilanes.

Abstract A peculiar lack of olefinic reactivity, combined with a facility for cyclization of methyl and ethyl Δ1,5-hexadiene-1, 1, 3, 3, 4, 4, 6, 6-octacarboxylates, has been attributed by Ingold, Parekh, and Shoppee to ring-chain mesomerism. A reinvestigation of these and related compounds has now been made by using x-ray methods, and it is shown that the crystal structure of the methyl ester is incompatible with the cis-configuration required for such interspatial double-bond saturation. A radical disruption of a mesomeric system by crystallization from solution is improbable and, an earlier formulation incorporating a bicyclobutane nucleus being rejected on chemical grounds, it is necessary to seek a new interpretation of the anomalous reactivity. We suggest that the determinative condition is hyperconjugation throughout the carbon framework of the molecule, and discuss this in relation to 1,5-dienes generally.

The minor iridoid glucosides present in the aerial parts of Barleria lupulina Lindl. ( Acanthaceae ) have been identified as ipolamiidoside (7) and the new compound 6-O-acetylshanzhiside methyl ester (3). The structure of (3) was determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods, and was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray structure determination. Crystals of (3) are orthorhombic P212121, a 43.75(1), b 8.151(3), c 5.695(2) �, Z 4. The crystal structure was determined at 295 K from diffractometer data [I528 reflections with I > 3σ(I)] and refined to a residual of 0.043. Shanzhiside methyl ester (1) and its 6-Oacetyl (3), 8-Oacetyl (2) and 6,8-O,O-diacetyl (4) derivatives, all of which occur in Barleria lupulina, have been found to inhibit the growth of wheat embryos.

4H-Chromene-2-carboxylic acid ester derivatives of renieramycin M might be of use for the structural-activity relationship studies of antitumor antibiotic tetrahydroisoquinoline natural products. Accordingly, 6-tert-butyl-4-phenyl-4H-chromene-2-carboxylic acid, one key intermediate, was synthesized via the condensation of (3E)-2-oxo-4-phenylbut-3-enoate methyl ester with 4-tert-butylphenol in the presence of AuCl3/3AgOTf (5 mol%), followed by cyclodehydration and aqueous hydrolysis. The product was unambiguously shown to the 4H-chromene-2-carboxylic acid by spectroscopy and X-ray crystallographic analysis. A packing diagram of the crystal structure shows that aromaticπ-stacking interactions and O–H⋯O hydrogen bond stabilize the structure in the solid.
