The total synthesis of the title compound 22 and methyl 14α-hydroxy-5β,13α,8-androstene-1,7,17-trioxo-10β-oate 21 isomer is reported. We also describe the 1,6-Michael addition of 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione on dienone 14 and the protic ammonium salt catalyzed intramolecular Michael addition of cyclic β-ketoester on the conjugated acetylenic ketone 13. Keywords: cardenolides, steroid synthesis, aldol, Michael addition.

The synthesis of novel l-prolinal dithioacetal and its application as an organocatalyst for the direct Michael addition of cyclic ketones and acetophenone derivatives to trans-β-nitrostyrene and related compounds is described. The prolinal dithioacetal acts as effective catalyst in the case of cyclic ketones of different ring size, in particular five- and six-membered examples, as well as larger and smaller ring systems. High enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity is observed for different substrates and trans-β-nitrostyrenes. Also, the first asymmetric syntheses of selected 2-methyl-4-nitro-1,3-diphenylbutan-1-one derivatives by application of the obtained organocatalyst is presented.

In the reaction of thieno[2,3c]-2-benzothiepin-4(9H)-one (VI) with 1-methyl-4-piperidylmagnesium chloride 7-(1-methyl-4-piperidyl)thieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin-4(9H)-one (VIII) is formed in addition to the expected amino alcohol VII. The title compound I was obtained by the acid catalyzed dehydration of the pure alcohol VII. Compound I (pipethiadene) has outstanding antihistamine, antiserotonin, antireserpine and anticataleptic activity and was recommended to clinical trials as a potential antimigraine agent. For pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies there were prepared the NC2H3 analogue of pipethiadene IV and further, as potential metabolites, the demethyl analogue III, S-oxide X, demethyl S-oxide XI, N-oxide XIII and N,S-dioxide XIV. The Witting reaction of the ketone VI with 3-dimethylaminopropylidenetriphenylphosphorane resulted in a mixture of geometric isomers of 4-(3-dimethylamino-propylidene)-4,9-dihydrothieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin with the strongly predominating Z-isomer XVI which was isolated from the mixture by crystallization of the hydrogen maleate. The mixture with the predominating Z-isomer XVI was converted by the treatment with 80% sulfuric acid and dilution with water to a mixture with the predominating E-isomer XV (dithiadene) which was isolated by crystallization of the hydrogen sulfate. Some further new thieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin derivatives were synthesized as potential intermediates.

An appreciable degree of pyramidalization of the amine N atom is observed in the title compound. The existence of polar chains, induced by N—H...O synthons, is confirmed. C—H...O interactions, not noted in a previous X-ray study, were found to stabilize further the known head-to-tail assembling of the chains. The structure can be described as non-polar (101) layers, embodying chains interlinked by centrosymmetric dimers, connected by C(aryl)—H...π interactions. The latter are not present in m-nitroaniline, 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline and other related compounds with chains built from similar N—H...O synthons and assembled head-to-head. This finding implies that an obvious relationship between molecular recognition patterns and crystal structures should not be assumed.

Bromohydrination of benzyl (1RS,2SR,4SR)-2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-1-trimethylsilyloxy-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-carboxylate (6a) and the (1RS,2RS,4SR)- diastereomer (6b) with N- bromoacetamide in aqueous dioxan has been investigated. These reactions are highly regio-and stereo-selective and give the corresponding bromohydrins (9a) and (9b), but in moderate to low yield. These bromohydrins have the necessary stereochemistry for conversion into anticapsin. The other products from the reaction are tricyclic compounds formed by capture of the anti- bromonium cation intermediates or resultant bromohydrins by interaction with the proximal protected carboxy and amino groups within the molecules. Thus the carbolactone (11) is formed from the endo -adduct (6a), and the carbonimidic acid derivative (12) and the cyclic urethane (13) are formed from the exo-adduct (6b). Cleavage of the trimethylsilyl group from the tricyclic compound (12) gives benzyl (1RS,2RS,3RS,7RS,8RS)-5-benzyloxy-2-bromo-8-hydroxy-4-oxa-6-azatricyclo[5.3.1.03,8]undec-5-ene-7-carboxylate(14), the structure of which was determined by X-ray diffraction methods and refined to a residual of 0.035 for 1549 independent observed reflections. The crystals of (14) are monoclinic, P21/c, a 12.954(3), b 6.197(3), c 26.784(7) Ǻ, β 95.33(2)°, Z 4. Reactions attempting to generate iodohydrins from the alkenes (6) were also highly regioselective and gave detrimethylsilylated iodo analogues of (11) and (13).
