Labile 1,6-dihydroxy-2-hexanone (4) was prepared from the corresponding triol by selective di-O-tritylation, Collins oxidation, and careful detritylation of the resulting keto compound 3 under mild, acidic conditions. As shown by its 1Hmr and 13Cmr spectra, 4 exists as a 3:2 mixture of open-chain and cyclic forms, respectively, at equilibrium in deuterium oxide (25 °C). Upon standing, 4 is slowly converted into a hemiacetalic dimer. Under acidic conditions, dehydrative dimerization takes place to give the corresponding tricyclic dianhydride, one or both of the possible isomers (1:1 mixture) of which being formed according to the presence or absence of water in the medium. The structure (trans) of the thermodynamic isomer 5 was firmly established by an X-ray crystallographic analysis.

A stable hemiacetal, 2,3-diphenyl-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-2-ol, was isolated as the main product from the reaction of benzil and o-aminophenol in THF. The structure of the product is confirmed by elemental analysis, common spectroscopic methods, and X-ray crystallographic analysis.

The equilibria and mechanism of addition of protons to the ethylenediphosphinetetraacetate anion (L4-) were studied in solution by the UV, IR, 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopic methods. A total of six protons can be bonded to the anion. They are added stepwise, first with partial formation of zwitterions containing P-H bonds, which then dissociate with formation of the free acid, H4L, where all four protons are bonded in carboxyl groups. The formation of zwitterions is strongly dependent on the concentration. In the final stage, the acid bonds two additional protons to form the bis-phosphonium cation, H6L2+. A number of isostructural salts containing this cation, H4L.2 HX (X = Cl, Br, I), have been prepared. The X-ray crystal structure determination of the bromide confirmed the expected arrangement. The bromide crystals are monoclinic, a = 578.2, b = 1 425.0, c = 1 046.7 pm, β = 103.07° with a space group of P21/c, Z = 2. The final R factor was 0.059 based on 1 109 observed reflections. The structure consists of H6L2+ cations containing protons bonded to phosphorus atoms (P-H distance 134 pm) and of bromide anions, located in gaps which are also sufficiently large for I- anions in the isostructural iodide. The interbonding of phosphonium cations proceeds through hydrogen bonds, C-OH...O=C, in which the O...O distance is 275.3 pm.

X-Ray structure determination of the complex salts [MeNC5H4Me]+[TCNQ2]- [1,4-dimethylpyridinium 2(7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane) (1-); I] and [Me(NC5H4)(Me)CH-CH(Me)(C5H4N)Me]2+[TCNQ4]2- [ meso-2,3-bis( N-methyl-4-pyridyl)butane(2+) 4(7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane) (2-); II], where TCNQ=(CN)2C(C6H4)C(CN)2, shows that, although in both salts the TCNQ moieties are stacked in columns, lateral shifts break these columns into diads for I and tetrads for II causing their electrical conductivities to be only moderate (Σ = 2–4 × 10−3 ohm−1 cm−1).
