Information pertaining to the position of the carbonyl group relative to the nitrogen atom and to the size of one of the nitrogen rings in lycopodine has been obtained through a study of the reactions of α- and β-cyanobromolycopodine.

The hydrogenolysis and hydrolysis of α-cyanobromolycopodine to the secondary tricyclic base, α-des-dihydrolycopodine, is reported. The latter compound was converted to the methiodide in poor yield so that further degradations of the molecule through this derivative were not feasible. Hydride reductions of α-cyanobromolycopodine and some of its derivatives are recorded. The presence of a methylene group adjacent to the carbonyl group in lycopodine has been proved. Evidence is presented which suggests that the carbonyl group and the nitrogen atom are relatively close to one another in the molecule.

Aptitude to ring expansion in the piperidine series, measured by the ratio of ring expanded ketone to epoxide, varies considerably according to the nitrogen atom substituent. This ratio is essentially the same in the case of the reaction of diazomethane on 4-piperidones and the nitrous acid deamination of the corresponding aminoalcohols. The values of the ratio are 0.01–0.1 for a phenylsulfonyl group, of the order 0.3–0.6 for a benzoyl group and slightly greater than 1 for a benzyl group. Electronic effects (inductive and field effects) are the cause of these differences. Parallels between the two reactions indicate that nucleophilic attack of diazomethane on the carbonyl group can lead to the ring expanded ketone and the epoxide.

The reaction of 5,6-benzo-2-chloro-1,3-dimethyl-1,3,2-diazaphosphorinane-4-one (1) with trimethylsilyl azide led to the substituted cyclotriphosphazene (3). A monomeric reaction product was not observed by NMR spectroscopy. The diazaphosphorinane 2, with the 2-chloroethyl substituent bonded to the nitrogen atom in a-position to the carbonyl group, did not react with trimethylsilyl azide. An attempt to prepare 3 from N,N'-dimethylanthranilamide 5 and hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene 4 failed, as did the attempt to react 5 with phosphorus pentachloride. The reaction of 5,6-benzo-2-{bis(2-chloroethyl)amino}-1,3-dimethyl- 1.3.2-diazaphosphorinane-4-one (7) and of the related compound 9, bearing only one 2-chloroethyl substituent, with 4-nitrobenzoyl azide furnished, in a normal Staudinger fashion, the monomeric products 8 and 10. In the case of 10, intramolecular P=O···H interaction was demonstrated by IR spectroscopy.

The permanganate oxidation product of annotinine is shown to be an amide that contains the ether ring of annotinine still intact. The Clemmensen reduction of this compound to the saturated base, C16H23O2N, was re-examined. A number of intermediates were isolated from the system and these were also prepared from the oxidation product by other methods. Analogous reactions of annotinine chlorohydrin were also studied. From these results suggestions are presented regarding the size of the ether ring and its position relative to the nitrogen atom.

Interaction of the Reformatsky reagents, prepared from methyl 1-bromocyclopentane-1-carboxylate or methyl 1-bromocyclohexane-1-carboxylate, with N,N′-bis(arylmethylidene)benzidines has given rise to a set of intermediates as a result of nucleophilic addition to the C=N group of a substrate. Further intramolecular attack of the amide nitrogen atom onto the ester carbonyl group is responsible for the ring closure, which affords two series of spirocompounds: 2,2′-([1,1′-biphenyl]-4,4′-diyl)bis(3-aryl-2-azaspiro[3.4]octan-1-one) or 2,2′-([1,1′-biphenyl]-4,4′-diyl)bis(3-aryl-2-azaspiro[3.5]nonan-1-ones).

The infrared spectra of many complexes of Lewis acids with some 4-pyridones have been recorded. Large shifts to lower frequencies of about 100 cm−1 have been observed in a band near 1560 cm−1 as the Lewis acid strength increased. Much smaller shifts of about 5 to 10 cm−1 in a band near 1640 cm−1 were noted. The former band has therefore been designated as the carbonyl frequency, and the latter as a ring mode involving CC stretching.The donor site of 4-pyridones is therefore the carbonyl group, and not the nitrogen atom. Protonated 4-pyridones have similar spectra, and are consistent with O-, not N-protonation.

The carbonyl frequency in semicarbazides, semicarbazones, and pyrazolecarboxamides is higher than that in ureas. A phenyl group attached to the third nitrogen atom of semicarbazides lowers the carbonyl frequency. A phenyl group substituted on the first nitrogen atom shifts the carbonyl absorption in semicarbazides to a higher frequency region than do alkyl groups.

A study has been made of the products formed on treatment of α- and β-cyanobromolycopodine with potassium hydroxide in methanol and potassium acetate in ethanol, respectively. The product derived from the α-isomer is apparently formed in a cyclization reaction taking place alpha to the carbonyl group while that formed from the β-isomer may be an enol ether. The olefin expected from a normal dehydrobromination of α-cyanobromolycopodine has been prepared by an indirect method. Attempts to prepare the analogous olefin in the β-series led to the formation of a saturated cyclic ether. The hydrogenolysis product of β-cyanobromolycopodine has been prepared.
