3-Vinylbenzofuran, 3-isopropenylbenzofuran and 2-methyl-3-vinylbenzofuran give normal [4π+2π] adducts with ethenetetracarbonitrile, accompanied, in the case of the last named diene, by the isomeric cyclobutane. Normal adducts also result from these dienes and 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione, and from 3-vinylbenzofuran and both maleic anhydride and N- phenylmaleimide. 3-Vinylbenzofuran gives the rearranged adduct dimethyl 1,2-dihydrodibenzofuran-3,4-dicarboxylate with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate.

3-Vinylindene, 2-methyl-3-vinylindene and 3-isopropenylindene give normal, photostable adducts with ethenetetracarbonitrile by a Diels- Alder process. The first diene gives adducts with maleic anhydride, N- phenylmaleimide and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. Where there is stereochemical ambiguity the adducts are shown by mass spectrometry to be exclusively endo. Two heterocyclic analogues are formed from 3- vinylindene with p-toluenesulphonyl cyanide and N-sulphinyl-p- toluenesulphonamide.

AbstractReaction of 1,2-hydroxyketones 5 with (2,2-diethoxyvinylidene)triphenylphosphorane (2) or (2,2-diethoxyvinyl)triphenylphosphonium tetrafluoroborates 6 yields the 2,2-diethoxy- 2.5-dihydrofurans 9. Depending on the reaction conditions used, the orthoesters 9 can be hydrolized to give 2(5 H)furanones 10 and 2-ethoxyfurans 11, respectively. 4,5-Dimethyl- 5.6-dihydro-2-pyranone (20) and 8-methoxycoumarin (23) are prepared, starting from (2,2-diethoxyvinyl)triphenylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate (6 a) and 1-hydroxy-2-methyl- 3-butanone (16) or 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldehyde (21). The 2-ethoxyfuranes 11 readily undergo Diels-Alder reactions with 2-chloracrylonitrile (24), maleic anhydride (26), N-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (28) and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (30) to give the corresponding Diels-Alder products 25, 27, 29 and 31, respectively. Contrary to 2-ethoxyfuran 11b , 11a reacts with two equivalents of acetylene 30, to yield barrelenone 34. The structure of 34 unequivocally is established by X-ray structure analysis.

The reaction of secondary amines, namely 1-methylpiperazine, pyrrolidine, morpholine, 2-methylpiperidine, and diethylamine, with maleic anhydride has been investigated experimentally and theoretically at the DFT level. Under kinetic control, i.e. at −78°C or −15°C, amines add across the C=O functionality exclusively and the initially formed addition products isomerize to the corresponding N-substituted maleimic acid derivatives. In contrast to the acyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, amine does not add across the C=C functionality in maleic anhydride even under thermodynamic control. This behaviour of maleic anhydride can be rationalized on the basis of the local condensed Fukui functions, which reveal that the carbonyl carbon atoms in maleic anhydride are much harder than in an acyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, such as acrolein. This prompts the amines to attack the carbonyl group in maleic anhydride exclusively.

Diels-Alder cycloadditions of dienophiles , such as 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione, dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, dimethyl fumarate , diethyl azodicarboxylate , maleic anhydride, benzyne and p-benzoquinone, to dimethyl trans-3,8-dihydrohexalene-3,8-dicarboxylate (4) have been investigated, and monoaddition products (9)-(16) have been isolated. It has been shown that a second addition to this system occurs only with singlet oxygen and with benzyne. Furthermore, it has been established that the second addition is retarded because of the strain in the cycloheptatriene molecule. The anti bicyclic endoperoxides (21)-(25) formed have been converted, either on heating or in a Co( tpp )- catalysed reaction, into the corresponding bisepoxides (27)-(31).

A number of 7-alkylidenecycloocta-1,3,5-trienes, all unstable, yield novel π8+π2 cycloadducts with a range of π2-addends. The reactions of 7-methylenecycloocta-1,3,5-triene with ethene-tetracarbonitrile, 4- phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione, diethyl azodicarboxylate and chlorosulfonyl isocyanate are described. The tetraene did not react with maleic anhydride or dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. As well, the reactions of 1,3,5-trimethyl-7-methylenecycloocta-1,3,5-triene, 2,9a- dihydro-1H-cyclopentacyclooctene and 1,2,3,10a- tetrahydrobenzocyclooctene with ethenetetracarbonitrile and of 7- isopropylidenecycloocta-1,3,5-triene with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline- 3,5-dione are discussed. The intermediacy of homotropylium zwitterions in the reactions is postulated.
