3-Alkoxy/allyloxy-6-chloro-2-(furan-3-yl)-4H-chromen-4-ones yield angular tetracyclic products involving the 2-furyl group on photoirradiation through the intermediacy of 1,4-biradicals. The nature of the 3-alkoxy/allyloxy group influenced the photoproduct distribution. The stereochemical dispositions of the products have been established using the J/Φ relationship and were corroborated by MM2 calculations.

Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Mn(II) complexes of Schiff base derived from 2-aminophenol and pyrrole-2- carbaldehyde have been prepared. The complexes are formed by coordination of N and O atoms of the ligand. Their structures were characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. Molecular structure of the complexes has been optimized by MM2 calculations and suggests a tetrahedral/ square planar geometry. The bio-efficacy of the ligand and their complexes has been examined against the growth of bacteriain vitroto evaluate their anti-microbial potential.

Procedures are described for the attempted conversion of the pyrrolidine (2) into a bicyclic system that would ultimately lead to retronecine (3). The only molecule to be isolated from these attempts was the epimeric ketone (6), and AM1 and MM2 calculations were used to probe this apparently favoured isomerization. Alternative procedures were then investigated that sought to convert the pyrrolidine (1) into precursors to retronecine, and notable successes were obtained with the addition of the amine (21) to both nitroethene and ethyl 2-diethylphosphonoacrylate. However, not only were these precursors resistant to further transformations into retronecine , but also the problem of epimerization again arose. Consequently, AM1 calculations were again employed, and an X-ray structure determination of ethyl (7R,8R)-7-benzyloxy-1-benzyloxymethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3H-pyrrolizine-2-carboxylate (39) is reported. Attempts to convert (39) into a diastereoisomer of retronecine were unsuccessful.

The reactivity of the radical cations of methyl 2,2-diphenylcyclohexyl ether (7), 6,6-diphenyl-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane (8), methyl cis- and trans-2-phenylcyclohexyl ether (9cis and trans), and 6-phenyl-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane (10), generated by photosensitized (electron transfer) irradiation, has been studied. Solutions of the ethers and acetals in acetonitrile–methanol (3:1), with 1,4-dicyanobenzene (2) serving as the electron acceptor, were irradiated with a medium-pressure mercury vapour lamp through Pyrex. The diphenyl derivatives 7 and 8 were reactive; 7 gave 6,6-diphenylhexanal dimethyl acetal (11) and 8 gave 2-methoxy-2-(5,5-diphenylpentyl)-1,3-dioxolane (12). These are the products expected from the intermediate 1,6-radical cation, formed upon carbon–carbon bond cleavage of the cyclic radical cation. The monophenyl derivatives 9cis and trans and 10 were stable under these irradiation conditions. The mechanism for the carbon–carbon bond cleavage and for the cis–trans isomerization is discussed. An explanation, based upon conformation, is offered for the lack of reactivity of 9 and 10. Molecular mechanics (MM2) calculations were used to determine the preferred conformation of 9cis and trans, and 10. Key words: photosensitization, electron transfer, radical cation, carbon–carbon bond cleavage, conformation.
