Depending on the experimental conditions the AlCl3-promoted reaction of 1-carbomethoxypyrrole and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate yields 2,3,7-tricarbomethoxy-7-azanorbornadiene, either in almost quantitative yield or together with dimethyl 1-carbomethoxy-2-pyrrolyl maleate and fumarate. The azanorbornadiene has been quantitatively converted to 1,4,5-tricarbomethoxyazepine via the corresponding 3-azaquadricyclane. The proton magnetic resonance spectra were analyzed with the aid of the Laocoon II program.

Convenient Route

Aluminum chloride accelerates the Diels–Alder reactions of 2- or 2,5-substituted N-carbomethoxypyrroles with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, and also catalyzes rearrangement of the N-carbomethoxy-7-azanorbornadiene adducts to 6- and 4,6-substituted dimethyl N-carbomethoxy-3-aminophthalates. Aromatization of the corresponding adduct of N-carbomethoxypyrrole only occurs on prolonged treatment with BF3. The procedure promises to be a convenient route for the synthesis of polysubstituted anilines.

The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of representative 5-nitro-6-substituted-2-norbornenes (II–VII) are described. From the spectra, ratios of the two possible endo–exo trans stereoisomers derived from the Diels–Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with the appropriate trans nitroölefin are estimated as shown in Table II. For all cases, there was predominance (3:1 to 9:1) of the 5-endo-nitro trans stereoisomer. The synthesis of the 6-(p-nitrophenyl) (V), 6-(2-furyl) (VI), and 6-(2-thienyl) (VII) derivatives is reported and the 6-ethyl derivative (III) has been characterized

Diels Alder Reaction

The Diels–Alder addition of furan to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) affords a monoadduct 1. The position and steric course of further addition of furan to the latter are temperature dependent. At temperatures of 50° or below addition occurs mainly at the activated double bond to give endo-endo4 and endo-exo5 diadducts. At 100° addition occurs at the less substituted double bond of the monoadduct to give analogous endo-endo7 and endo-exo9 diadducts; further addition of furan to the latter at 100° affords four triadducts 12–15. The configurations of all these products were determined by p.m.r. and assignments confirmed by simulation of the spectra.AlCl3 causes enormous rate enhancement of the Diels–Alder additions of furan to DMAD and to the activated double bond of the monoadduct. In the presence of the Lewis acid the predominant diadduct formed is the endo-exo isomer 5.

By Products

The AlCl3-promoted reactions of 2-methyl- and of 2-phenylfuran with ethyl propiolate afford as major products ethyl 5-hydroxy-2-methyl- and 2-phenylbenzoates (6a, 6b). Also isolated as minor by-products of these reactions are ethyl 3-(2-furyl-5-methyl)acrylate (5a), ethyl 3-(2-furyl-5-phenyl)acrylate (5b), ethyl 3,3-di(2-furyl-5-methyl)propionate (10a), ethyl 3,3-di(2-furyl-5-phenyl)propionate (10b), and ethyl 2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzoate (8a).
