    Notes: Synthesis and Photolysis of 1,4,4-Trialkyl-4,5-dihydro-5-imino-1H-1,2,3-triazoles.  -  Regio- and Diastereoselective Formation of (Z)-AziridiniminesThe novel 5-iminodihydro-1,2,3-triazoles 14 are synthesized from the 5-isopropylidenedihydrotetrazole 11 through a ring transformation involving cycloaddition and cycloreversion of alkyl azides 12. Thus, [3 + 21 cycloaddition of 11 and 12 pro- duces high yields of the spiro compounds 13. On thermolysis at 120- 130°C, the latter undergo clean [3 + 2] cycloreversion into methyl a i d e (12a) and the iminodihydro-1,2,3-triazoles 14, which exist as mixtures of diastereomers, e.g. (E)-/(Z)-14a = 955, or as a single stereoisomer (E)-14c. When toluene solutions of 14 are irradiated (≥ 1 280 mm) at - 60°C, the configuration of the products is under kinetic control. Irradiation of 14a affords a quantitative yield of the aziridinimines (E)-and (Z)-15a (11:89) besides molecular nitrogen. In order to allow the distinction between the least-motion and the non-least-motion path of product formation, the photolysis of iminodihydro-1,2,3-triazoles is studied which are labelled at N-1 by a deuterated methyl group (14b) or a neopentyl group (14c). Neither photolysis (λ ≥280 nm) nor heating to 120 to 130°C induces any scrambling of the alkyl groups attached to N-1 and the exocyclic nitrogen atom of 14b and c. The major product from (E)-/(Z)-14b (84%) is formed by the non-least-motion path leading diastereoselectively to (Z)-15 b, while the least-motion products (E)- and (Z)-17b (16%) exhibit a diastereo-meric ratio of 3: 1. Very similar results are obtained on photolysis of (E)-14c, except that the least-motion product (15%) arises only in a single configuration [(E)-l7c]. In the non-least-motion products (Z)-15b, c, the geometry of the Me—N=-C—N???—R group, fixed by the ring in 14b, c, is completely retained. Therefore, the (Z) diastereoselectivity is interpreted in terms of a one-bond cleavage leading to diazenyl-1,3-diazaallyl diradicals 22 having lifetimes too short for changes of their configuration which is determined by the structure of the precursor.

    Notes: The tetraalkyl-1-pyrazolin-4-ones 5 react with hydrazine to afford the hydrazones 6 which are transformed into the thiones 7 in high yields by treatment with disulphur dichloride in the presence of triethylamine. Selective excitation of the azo chromophor of 7a with 350-nm light gives rise to the isopropylidenethiirane 8, besides molecular nitrogen, in a very clean reaction; at almost quantitative conversions, less than 2% of byproducts are observed, and about 10% of 8 have isomerized to the pentadienethiol 9. Photolysis of the stereoisomers cis- and trans-7b yields mixtures of the alkylidenethiiranes (E)-and (Z)-10 with (E)/(Z) ratios of 35:65 and 49:51. The results are interpreted in terms of diastereomeric bis-orthogonal (cis- and trans-21) and mono-orthogonal thioxyallyl diradicals (E)- and (Z)-23 which cyclize to furnish (E)- and (Z)-10. There seems to be a qualitative resemblance between the photochemical and thermal stabilities in the series of 4-substituted tetramethyl-1-pyrazolines, viz. 7a 〈 12 〈 5a, 13, similar to that suggested by Engel for 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene derivatives.

    Notes: The isomeric 4-methylene-1-pyrazolines cis- and trans-2 are synthesized by a Wittig reaction from the pyrazolin-4-ones cis- and trans-1, respectively. Direct irradiation with 350-nm light of cis-2 affords the alkylidenecyclopropanes cis-8, (E)- and (Z)-9 (64: 17: 19) besides molecular nitrogen and small amounts of the 4-methylenepyrazolidine cis-7 as a result of photoreduction. Under the same conditions, trans-2 is converted into trans-8 as well as (E)- and (Z)-9 (64: 14: 22). The configurations of cis- and trans-8 have been established by means of a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with mesityl nitrile oxide which furnishes two cycloadducts from cis-8, e.g. cis-14A and B, but only one cycloadduct from trans-8, viz. trans-14. The configurations of (E)- and (Z)-9 have been assigned on the basis of homoallylic 1H,1H coupling constants and nuclear Overhauser experiments. The results demonstrate that, on the least-motion paths leading to cis- and trans-8, the configuration of the ring substituents in cis- and trans-2 is completely retained. Of the non-least-motion products (E)- and (Z)-9 the latter is favoured regardless of the configuration of the precursors cis- and trans-2 though the extent of (Z) selectivity depends on that configuration. The results are interpreted in terms of bis-orthogonal trimethylenemethane diradicals as primary intermediates from which irreversible paths bifurcate. Cyclization yields cis-8 (from cis-2) or trans-8 (from trans-2) and 90°-bond rotations afford two diastereomeric mono-orthogonal trimethylenemethane diradicals [(E)- and (Z)-18] which eventually cyclize to the corresponding non-least-motion products (E)-9 and (Z)-9.

    Notes: The photolysis of the 4-methylene-1-pyrazoline 1 is reinvestigated under a variety of experimental conditions. Direct irradiation (350-nm light) affords the alkylidenecyclopropanes 4 and 5 as predominant products, besides molecular nitrogen, and in a constant ratio of (55 ± 1): (45 ∓ 1), which is not altered in the presence of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) or piperylene nor in [D6]acetone solution. When oxygen is excluded, an additional compound is formed whose proportion depends on the capability of the solvent to act as hydrogen donor. In the presence of three equivalents of DABCO, it eventually becomes the major product. The 4-methylenepyrazolidine structure 13 of the novel photoproduct is established by NMR spectroscopy, a comparison with an authentic sample, obtained in quantitative yield by zinc reduction of 1, and reoxidation to 1 as well. An extensive investigation to detect any traces of the 4-isopropylidene-2-pyrazoline 6 in the irradiated solutions has failed. This result is at variance with recent disclosures reporting evidence for a turnaround photoisomerization of 1 via diazenylallyl diradicals. The contribution of photoreduction to the decay of the first excited singlet state of reluctant azo compounds is emphasized.

    Notes: The 1-pyrazolin-4-ones 7 and 9 and the pyrazolidin-4-one 13 are condensed with alkanamines 8 to produce the imines 3,10 and 12 in high yields. Direct irradiation of 3 with 350-nm light at 90°C in deuterated hydrocarbon solvents affords the cyclo-propanimines 4 in almost quantitative yields besides molecular nitrogen and small amounts of the imines 12 as a result of photoreduction. In [D6]acetone, the cyclopropanimine 4b isomerizes in part of the α,β-unsaturated imine 14. Direct irradiation of 3 with the unfiltered light of the high-pressure mercury lamp results in quantitative [2 + 1] cycloreversion of the primary photoproducts 4 into the alkene 6 and an isocyanide 5. At low temperature (10°C), photolysis of 3 occurs much more slowly giving rise to photoextrusion of nitrogen (→4) and photoreduction (→12) to about the same extent. - Photolysis of the stereochemically labelled iminopyrazolines cis- and trans-10 (d.e. 99%) at 90°C produces the cyclopropanimines cis- and trans-16 (d.e. 94%) with high stereospecificity. The configuration of cis- and trans-16 is established by a comparison with the corresponding methylenecyclopropanes cis- and trans-19 and the quantitative and completely stereospecific [2 + 1] cycloreversion into methyl isocyanide (5a) and the 3,4- dimethyl-3-hexenes (Z)- and (E)-17 on irradiation with the unfiltered light of the mercury arc. The necessity of thermal activation for efficient nitrogen extrusion from the 1(n,π*) state of 3 and 10 is indicative of a considerable energy barrier towards the transition into a dissociative state. At low temperature, hydrogen abstraction from the solvent or other molecules becomes important for the deactivation of the 1(n,π*) state, in addition to decay and fluorescence. The stereospecific formation of cis- and trans-16 is interpreted in terms of diastereomeric bis-orthogonal azatrimethylenemethane diradicals as intermediates which retain the configuration on cyclization. The minor non-stereospecific path may involve mono-orthogonal azatrimethylenemethane diradicals. Thus, mechanisms that involve the same types of diradical intermediates can rationalize the photolysis of the iminopyrazolines 3, 10 and of the methylenetriazoline 1 as well. The [2 + 1] cycloreversion of cis- and trans-16 into the alkenes (Z)- and (E)-17 and methyl isocyanide (5a) demonstrates for the first time that such photoreactions can be entirely stereospecific.

    Notes: ---2-Alkyl-1-methylquinazolinium hexafluorophosphates 9 are deprotonated by sodium or potassium hydride to afford solutions of 2-alkylidenedihydroquinazolines 10, which were investigated by NMR spectroscopy. Trapping with methanesulfonyl azide (5a) of 10 in situ or subsequent treatment with trifluoromethanesulfonyl azide (5b) gives mixtures of colourless (15) and intensely yellow N-sulfonylimino-1,4-benzodiazepines 16 along with products due to cleavage of the exocyclic double bond of 10, viz. 11 and 13. The ethylidene compound 10b yields the bicyclic products 18 and 19, apparently by complex sequences of reactions that are triggered by removal of the acidic proton at C-2 of 16b and 16f. The structures of the products are based on spectroscopic evidence and X-ray diffraction analyses performed on 15b, 16d, 16e, and 19.

    Notes: Methanesulphonyl azide (2) reacts readily with isolated cyclic ketene N,X-acetals of type 1, viz. 10a, d, 15b, d, and 22a-c, or those that are generated in situ by deprotonation of the corresponding 2-alkylbenzazolium tetrafluoroborates, i.e. 14a → 15a, 14b → 15b, and 18 → 19. Ring-expanded products are formed by extrusion of molecular nitrogen from intermediate labile [3 + 2] cycloadducts 3 with concomitant 1,2-shift of N (route A1 → 12, 24) or X (route A2 → 16, 20, 21). In addition, 3 may undergo [3 + 2] cycloreversion into N-sulphonylimine 5 and diazoalkane 6 (route B → 13, 17, 25). The configurations of the cyclic N-sulphonylamidines 16b and 21b, the N-sulphonylimine 24 and the N-sulphonylamine 27 are elucidated by means of X-ray diffraction analyses. The ratio of the (useful) ring-expansion reactions vs. the unwanted formation of 5 + 6 is hardly influenced by the solvent employed and temperature of the experiment but strongly by the nature of the potential migrating atom and the substituents at the α-carbon atom.

    Notes: Treatment of the unsaturated ketone 6 with phenylhydrazine fails to afford the unsaturated phenylhydrazone 3 but gives the tricyclic phenylhydrazoketone exo-8, which is oxidised with iron(III) chloride to yield the phenylazoketone exo-9. The configuration of exo-9 is elucidated with the help of an X-ray diffraction analysis. The unsaturated phenylazo compound 14 is obtained from Meerwein's diketone 10 in two ways. Iodination of the phenylhydrazone 11 in the presence of pyridine followed by elimination of pyridinium iodide from the bispyridinium salt 13 with aqueous sodium hydroxide in dimethyl sulphoxide furnishes 14 in low yield. A somewhat better yield is more conveniently achieved when the dibromodiketones exo,exo- and exo,endo-12 are allowed to react with phenylhydrazine in the presence of pyridine. Bromination of 14 with N-bromosuccinimide in cyclohexane as solvent affords the labile dibromide 15. Both reagents employed, viz. the zinc/copper couple in refluxing tetrahydrofuran and butyllithium at low temperature, fail to convert 15 into the hoped-for bis(phenylazo)barbaralane 1 but instead give rise to the formation of the isomer 17, either by cyclisation of the intermediate anion 16 or by rearrangement of 1.

    Notes: Addition to the diphenyldiketone 11 of the reagent prepared from rigorously dried cerium(III) chloride and phenyllithium yields the tetraphenyldiol endo,endo-13 after extended periods of time. The configuration of this diol, which was previously assigned the (incorrect) configuration exo,exo-13, is established by an X-ray diffraction analysis. Dehydration of endo,endo-13 with sulphuric acid in acetic acid affords a mixture of the oxatwistane 16 and the tetraphenyldiene 17 (3:1). Only the latter is obtained from endo,endo-13 by the action of boron trifluoride-diethyl ether in dichloromethane solution. While attempts at allylic bromination of 17 with N-bromosuccinimide in conventional solvents inevitably lead to complete decomposition, use of cyclohexane as solvent allows to obtain solutions of allylic dibromides that can be cyclised with the zinc-copper couple to afford tetraphenylbarbaralane 9 in 58% yield based on 17. Thus, 9 is now available from the diphenyldiketone 11 in only three steps with an overall yield of 42%. - The autoxidation of 9, studied in various solvents, yields mixtures of products of which the epoxyendoperoxides 20 and 21, the unsaturated ketone 22, and a labile, probably oligomeric or polymeric product C are isolated in pure form. The structures 21 and 22 are elucidated by X-ray diffraction analysis and independent synthesis, respectively. On warming, 20 rearranges into 21. Traces of acid convert the unknown autoxidation product A instantaneously into the unsaturated ketone 22. - Rate studies show that the autoxidation of 9 starts after a short initiation period. 2,6-Di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol exhibits powerful inhibitory effects. These results demonstrate the free radical nature of the autoxidation of 9. - The results are interpreted in terms of a mechanistic scheme involving initiation of the radical chain by addition of triplet oxygen to 9 to generate the diradical 28 followed by a radical chain 1:1 copolymerisation of 9 and oxygen to produce diradical 29. Eventually, endo addition of oxygen to 29 gives rise to the formation of the epoxyendoperoxides 20 and 21. Intramolecular hydrogen abstraction from the methylene group (C9) is accompanied by cleavage of a bridgehead bond (C1-C2) and the adjacent O-O bond to afford the extremely labile product A (perhaps 32 or 33) which undergoes acid-catalysed elimination to furnish ketone 22.

    Notes: -Whereas 1,5-dimethylsemibullvalene (1b) equilibrates with 1,5-dimethylcyclooctatetraene (2b), the semibullvalene-2,6-dicarbonitriles 13 rearrange irreversibly to afford mixtures of the isomeric cyclooctatetraene-1,5-dicarbonitriles 14 and 15. Arrhenius and Eyring parameters of these thermal isomerisation reactions have been determined for the gas phase (1b → 2b) and [D6]benzene solutions (1b → 2b, 13 → 14 + 15). Furthermore, the activation parameters of the known rearrangement of octamethylcyclooctatetraene (3) to octamethylsemibullvalene (4) have been determined. - The data for these compounds, together with those for related compounds previously reported in the literature, show that substituents not only influence the relative stabilities of the semibullvalene and cyclooctatetraene systems but also the height of the energy barrier for their interconversion. Those substituents that lower the barrier toward the degenerate Cope rearrangement of semibullvalenes simultaneously accelerate their rearrangement to cyclooctatetraenes thus limiting the thermal stability of the former.
