Treatment of 6β-bromo-4β,5-epoxy-5β-cholestan-3β-ol (IV) with lithium aluminium hydride in tetrahydrofuran at reflux for 16 hr gave a high yield of a new diol, C27H48O2, formulated as 4,5-seco-4,6-cyolo-6β- cholestane-3β,5α-diol (VIIa). This assignment follows from mechanistic considerations, and the chemical and physical properties of the dial and its transformation products. ��� Stepwise removal of the oxygen functions gave the new hydrocarbon 4,5-seco-4,6-cyclo-6β-cholestane (XIXg).

2'-Hydroxychalcones and α-alkoxy-2'-hydroxychalcones are converted by sodium borohydride in isopropanol into flav-3-enes and 3-alkoxyflav-3-enes in the convenient new synthesis which makes these flavenes readily available. Catalytic reduction of the flavenes gives the corresponding flavans or 3-alkoxyflavans in high yield, and the latter are obtained mainly in the 2,s-cis-form. The flavenes immediately give flavs lium cations in the cold when treated with acids in air, and oxidation of 5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxyflav-3-ene with benzoquinone in an acidic medium gave the flavylium salt, isolated as the ferrichloride. Reduction of 5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxy-flavylium chloride with lithium aluminium hydride gave 5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxy-flav-2-ene identical with the flavene obtained from (-)-epicatechin tetramethyl ether, and confirms an earlier investigation by Gramshaw, Johnson, and King. In its N.M.R. spectrum the heterocyclic-ring protons of this flav-2-ene give an ABX multiplet which is easily distinguished from the ABX multiplet at much lower field characteristic of flav-3-enes.

It has been shown that reductive rearrangement of 6β-bromo-4β,5-epoxy- 5β-cholestan-3β-ol (I) to 4,5-seco-4,6-cycle-6β-cholestane-3β,5α-diol (IXa) with lithium aluminium hydride in tetrahydrofuran proceeds via 6β-bromo-5β-cholestane-3β,5-diol (IIa). Relevant reactions of the latter and the corresponding 3-ketone are discussed. ��� Similar conversion of the 3-epimer of (I) into 4,5-seco-4,6-cyclo- 6β-cholestane-3α,5α-diol (XIIIa) in high yield indicates that reductive rearrangement of the 6β-bromo-5β-hydroxy moiety proceeds without participation of the 3-aluminate complex. Some derivatives of (XIIIa) are described. ��� Experimental conditions required for the conversion of (I) into (IXa) are defined. ��� Combined evidence indicates that the reaction proceeds in a concerted manner by essentially base-catalysed, 1,3-elimination of hydrogen bromide from diol (IIa) with 4,5-bond migration to give the formal intermediate 3β-hydroxy-4,5-seco-4,6-cyclo-6β-cholestan-5-one (VI), further reduced to (IXa).

Attempts have been made to effect fragmentation reactions with bromo- tetralone systems related to 6α-bromo-13-hydroxytotara-8,11,13-trien-7- one (VII), a compound which affords a secoditerpenoid (IX) when treated with DMSO-NaHCO3. On treatment with sulphuric acid in acetone, the mono- epoxide derivative (XXVIII) of the methyl ether of the secoditerpenoid undergoes a novel aromatization to a naphthalenic aldehyde (XXXI) by successive transannular cyclization and fragmentation reactions. ��� A 7β-hydroxy configuration has been confirmed for the major product from reduction of 13-acetoxytotara-8,11,13-trien-7-one (VIII) with lithium aluminium hydride. 13-Methoxytotara-8,11,13-triene (II) has been deisopropylated and then subjected to Birch reduction in an attempt to effect a high yield conversion into (+)-podocarp-8(14)-en- 13-one (XXXVII), a potentially useful intermediate for synthesis.

Oxidation of methyl 4,6–O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-α-L-arabino-hexopyranoside (1) with ruthenium tetroxide gave the 3-ketone 2 in high yield. A Wittig reaction between methylenetriphenylphosphorane and compound 2 gave methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-dideoxy-3-C-methylene-α-L-erythro-hexopyranoside (3), which was hydrated by the oxymercuration–demercuration procedure to afford methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-3-C-methyl-α-L-arabino-hexopyranoside (4). The reaction of compound 4 with N-bromosuccinimide gave methyl 4-O-benzoyl-6-bromo-2,6-dideoxy-3-C-methyl-α-L-arabino-hexopyranoside (5) in high yield. Treatment of compound 5 with lithium aluminium hydride followed by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the resultant product, gave L-olivomycose (6).

Were developed new and practical synthesis of (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate and (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate. The routes involve, as the key step, the use of the mercury derivative of the terminal-alkyne w-functionalised as intermediate. The synthesis of (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate was based on a C6+C2=C8 and C8+C4=C12 coupling scheme, starting from 1,6-hexane-diol. The first coupling reaction took place between 1-tert-butoxy-6-bromo-hexane and lithium acetylide-ethylendiamine complex obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-oct-7-yne, which is transformed in di[tert-butoxy-oct-7-yne]mercury. The mercury derivative was directly lithiated and then alkylated with 1-bromobutane obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dodec-7-yne. After acetylation and reduction with lithium aluminium hydride of 7-dodecyne-1-yl acetate gave (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate with 96 % purity. The synthesis of (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate was based on a C8+C2=C10 and C10+C2=C12 coupling scheme, starting from 1,8-octane-diol. The first coupling reaction took place between 1-tert-butoxy-8-bromo-octane and lithium acetylide-ethylendiamine complex obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dec-9-yne, which is transformed in di[tert-butoxy-dec-9-yne]mercury. The mercury derivative was directly lithiated and then alkylated with 1-bromoethane obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dodec-9-yne. After reduction with lithium aluminium hydride of 1-tert-butoxy-(E)-9-dodecene and acetylation was obtained (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate with 97 % purity.

4-Chloromethyl-s-hydrindacene (VIIa) was transformed via the malonic acid derivatives VIIIa and IXa to the acid Xb which afforded in four steps the homological acid Xc. Reactions of chlorides of both acids (XIbc ) with dimethylamine, 1-methylpiperazine and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine led to the amides XIIbc-XIVbc which were reduced with lithium aluminium hydride to the title compounds IVcd-VIcd. The amines obtained show central neuroleptic effects only in subtoxic doses; they are also potent local anaesthetics and have significant spasmolytic activity of the neurotropic as well as musculotropic type.
