<p>The coordination chemistry of the cyclopropyl-substituted alkenes, bicyclopropylidene (BCP) and methylenecyclopropane (MCP), with platinum was explored. A range of complexes with ŋ²-alkene ligands were synthesised by the displacement of a ligand, typically ethene, from a precursor complex. These complexes are [Pt(L)(P—P)] (L = BCP, MCP; P—P = Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂, Cy₂P(CH₂)₂PCy₂, ᵗBu₂P(CH₂)₂PᵗBu₂, ᵗBu₂PCH₂(o-C₆H₄)₂PᵗBu₂), [Pt(L)(P—S)] (L = BCP, MCP; P—S = ᵗBu₂PCH₂(o-₆H4)CH₂SᵗBu), [Pt(C₂H4)(L)(PR₃)] (L = BCP, MCP; PR₃ = PPh₃, PCy₃), [Pt(MCP)₂(PR₃)] (PR₃ = PPh₃, PCy₃) and [PtCl₂(L)(L′)] (L = BCP, MCP; L′ = Py, DMSO). These were the first examples of platinum complexes with ŋ²-BCP ligands, and the first bis-MCP Pt complexes.  BCP underwent ring-opening reactions with both Pt(0) and Pt(II) complexes to form the 1,3-diene allylidenecyclopropane (ACP). The first transition metal complexes of ACP [Pt(ACP)(P—P)] (P—P = Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂, Cy₂P(CH₂)₂PCy₂, ᵗBu₂P(CH₂)₂PᵗBu₂) were synthesised. Some of these complexes rearranged to form ŋ²:σ²-metallacyclopentene complexes, the first instances of the formation of ŋ²:σ²-metallacyclopentene complexes from ŋ²:π-diene complexes. With MCP, the ring-opening reaction only occurred with [₂(COD)], as a result of the anti-Markovnikov addition of Pt–H, generated by the β-hydride elimination of an Et group, across the double-bond. The major products of this reaction were the 1-methylcyclopropyl complexes [Pt(C(CH₂)₂CH₃)Et(COD)] and [Pt(C(CH₂)₂CH₃)₂(COD)], the first examples of such complexes.  Protonation of [Pt(L)(P—P)] resulted in a ring-opening reaction to form both the 2-substituted and 1-methyl allyl complexes, [Pt(ŋ³-CH₂CRCH₂)(P—P)]⁺ (R = ᶜPr, Me; P—P = Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂, ᵗBu₂PCH₂(o-C₆H₄)CH₂PᵗBu₂) and [Pt(ŋ³-CR₂CHCHMe)(P—P)]⁺ (R = cPr, Me; P—P = Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂, ᵗBuPCH₂(o-C₆H₄)CH₂PᵗBu₂). The analogous 1-methyl complexes were also formed from [Pt(L)(P—S)], wherein the alkene reacted with a hydride formed by the ortho-metallation of the P—S ligand. Computational models were used to investigate the formation of the allyl structures and it was found that the activation energy had a more significant effect than complex stability on product distributions.  Complexes with β-chloroalkyl ligands [Pt(C(CH₂)₂CR₂Cl)Cl(L)₂] (R = CH₂, H, L = SEt₂, NCᵗBu, Py) were formed by the addition of Pt–Cl across the alkene double bond. Phosphine complexes were formed by the displacement of a ligand from cis–[Pt(C(CH₂)₂CR₂Cl)Cl(Py)₂] (R = CH₂, H). These are the first examples of stable Pt(II) β-haloalkyl complexes. It was found using computational models that the presence of cyclopropyl rings had a stabilising effect on these complexes.</p>

<div><div>Three major factors determine torquoselectivity, which is the diastereoselectivity in electrocyclic ring-opening reactions to produce <i>E</i>/<i>Z</i>-double bond(s). One is the interaction between the decomposing s<sub>CC</sub> bond and low-lying vacant orbital(s), such as a p*- or s*-orbital on the substituent, which promotes the reaction, resulting in inward rotation of the substituent. Second, for a substituent with a lone pair(s), repulsive interaction between the decomposing s-bond and the lone pair(s) hinders inward rotation, so that the products of outward rotation should be preferred. Finally, a more strongly donating s-electron-donating group (sEDG) rotates inwardly due to stabilization by phase-continuous cyclic orbital interaction. We compared the latter two interactions, repulsion between the lone pairs on the substituent and stabilization from phase-continuous cyclic orbital interaction, to determine which has a greater effect on the diastereoselectivity. We considered a series of model reactions with halogen substituents, and concluded that the diastereoselectivity is mainly controlled by cyclic orbital interaction.<br></div></div>

Introduction: The preparation of model 6-chloro-5-nitrothieno[2,3-c]pyridazines incorporating (2'-halo-5'-nitrophenyl) entity is described. Interaction of these substrates with N'-(aryl)benzothiohydrazides, in the presence of triethylamine, followed a formal [4+1] annulation, furnishing the respective 1,3,4-thiadiazoline–benzothiazolo [3,2-b]pyridazine hybrids directly. This one-pot synthesis implies thiophene ring-opening and two consecutive intramolecular cyclizations. The structures of the synthesized new hybrids are supported by MS, NMR, and IR spectral data and further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. These hybrids exhibit antiproliferative activity with notable selectivity against solid tumor cell lines (IC50: 4-18 μM). Aims: This study aimed at exploring the scope and applicability of thiophene ring-opening reaction towards the synthesis of new thiadiazoline–[fused]tricyclic conjugates. Background: α-Chloro-β-nitrothienopyridazine underwent ring-opening upon reacting with N'-(aryl)benzothiohydrazides generating 1,3,4-thiadiazoline–benzothiazolo[3,2-b]pyridazines. Objective: This new thiophene ring-opening reaction is applied to the one-pot synthesis of thiadiazoline–benzothiazolo[3,2-b]pyridazine couples. Method: A direct interaction of α-chloro-β-nitrothienopyridazine with N'-(aryl)benzothiohydrazide at room temperature for 1-2 h occurred. Result: α-Chloro-β-nitrothieno[2,3-c]pyridazines are suitable substrates for the facile synthesis of thiadiazoline–benzothiazolo[3,2-b]pyridazine hybrids. Conclusion: This novel ring-opening reaction proceeds via formal [4+1] annulation and provides a versatile approach to various conjugated and/or fused five-membered heterocycles.

AbstractA palladium–catalyzed ring-opening reaction of 2H-azirines with hydrazones has been developed. This protocol provides an alternative route for the construction of various polysubstituted pyrazoles with a wide substrate scope. Moreover, a plausible mechanism is proposed for this reaction, which should further enrich the chemical conversion of 2H-azirines.

Open chain intermediates from the ring-opening reaction of aqueous sodium deuteroxide (2 mol) with 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine (1 mol) and 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine (1 mol) were isolated. These intermediates were purified, analyzed for elemental composition, and characterized by various spectrophotometric techniques. The intermediate formed from 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine and two equivalents of deuteroxide ion reacts with additional deuteroxide in D2O in various polar solvents to reclose the pyridine ring. The kinetics of the ring closure reaction are reported and are supplemented with observations of salt and solvent effects upon the rate of closure. In addition, a mechanism for the ring closure is presented. The intermediate formed from 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine did not undergo a similar ring closure when reacted with additional deuteroxide, but instead formed various decomposition products. A reason for the failure of this ring closure is suggested.

AbstractThe title compounds were synthesized from readily available quinolone and coumarin derivatives by a cascade reaction (12 examples, 90–98% yield). The cascade comprised a [2+2] photocycloaddition which occurred upon sensitized irradiation at λ = 420 nm (or direct UV irradiation at λ = 366 nm) and a subsequent acid-catalyzed ring-opening reaction. A variety of substituents are compatible with the conditions and a 3-alkyl group in the coumarin (or quinolone) is crucial to achieve a high chemoselectivity. Key to the success of the ring opening is the formation of a 4,5,5a-trihydrocyclobuta-2H-furan containing a strained bridgehead double bond which stems from the allenyl group tethered to the 4-position of the starting materials.
