Evnin Submitted to the Department of Chemistry in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy ABSTRACT Chapter I. Diels-Alder Reactions of Organotin Acetylides with Highly Chlorinated Cyclopentadienes and the Chemistry of the Adducts The Diels-Alder reaction of organotin acetylides LRC m-Sn (CH 3 )3 , R (CH 3) 3Sn-, 0-, CH 3-] gives bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-dienes, typical- ly in 50-70% yields. The carbon-tin bonds in t he adducts are readily cleaved by electrophiles, without rearrangement of the carbon skeleton, to give novel, highly halogenated bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-dienes. One of these,2,3-dibromo-l,4,5,6,7,7-hexachlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hepta- 2,5-diene, was converted by bromine-metal exchange, to its 2-lithio derivative, which exhibits unusual stability for a P-balolithium system. The Diels-Alder reaction of 1,2,3,4-tetrachloro-5,5-dimethoxy- cyclopentadiene and bis(trimethyltin)acetylene, which yields 1,2-bis- (trimethyltin)tetrachlorobenzene, was also examined. Chapter II. Diels-Alder Reactions of a-Pyrones and Bis(trimethyltin- acetylene and the Chemistry of the Adducts The Diels-Alder reaction of a-pyrone and several of its analogs (5-carbomethoxy-, 5-methyl- and 4,6-dimethy-a-pyrone) with bis(trimethyltin)acetylene to produce o-bis(trimethyltin)benzenes in good yields is described. The reaction affords a route to novel tin-substituted aromatic compgunds. The utility of a-pyrones in a general, one-step synthesis of benzenoid systems is discussed. The enhanced reactivity towards bis(trimethyltin)acetylene of a- pyrones subitituted with electron withdrawing groups is established -4- and discussed in terms of current theories of the Diels-Alder reac- tion. Chapter III. Photochemistry of Unsaturated Organotin Compounds Irradiation of 2,3-bis(trimetbyltin) -1,4,5,6,7,7-hexa- chlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2, 5-diene and of ,2-(trimethyltin)-1,4,,5,6, 7,7- herachloro-3-metbylbicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene converts them to t he corresponding quadricyclenes. This constitutes one of the first e xpmples of photoisomerization of a main group organometallic com- pound. Protodestannation of these tin-substituted quadricyclenes occurs without rearrangement or carbon-carbon bond cleavage. aromodestannation was found to be more complex' and evidence is present- ed for the involvement of free radical intermediates in this case. Irradiation of o-bis(trimetbyltin)benzene leads only to dissociation of the carbon-tin bond; no isomerization of the aromatic nucleus was observed. Chapter IV. Thermal Decompoition of 2-Metallo-l,4,5,6,7,7-exachloro- bigyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2 5-dienes and o-Halo(trimethyl- tin)aromatics, Thermal decomposition of 2-metallo-l,4,5,6,7,7-hexa- chlorobtcyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-dienes (M = Sn, Hg) in the melt at 2300 yielded the mixture of products expected from homolytic scission of the carbon-metal bond and subsequent reactios of the rragments. The mechanism is discussed in detail. Similar heating of o-halo- (trimethylti)ensene syatemr dea not result in earbon-tin~homolysis; instead, coupling reactions to foam (2-haloe-2-biphenylyl)trimethyl- tin derivatives or- isproportionation of the tin compound occur. Evidence is presnte bat similar intermediates are involved in the formation of these two types of products.

    A Biomimetic Approach to Okilactomycin and Chrolactomycin and The Hexadehydro-Diels–Alder (HDDA) Reaction A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Dawen Niu IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Thomas R. Hoye December 2013 © Dawen Niu 2013 Acknowledgements So many things could have happened differently in the past 27 years and if any of them had, my career would have taken totally different pathways. I am so glad to be where I am today and need to acknowledge many people that made me here. First of all, I thank my parents. Born in remote villages, neither of them was able to receive good school education. They have been making very little money for what they do. To pay my (and my sister’s) tuition, they chose to work extremely hard. While I was in college, my father worked ca. 12 hours a day and >300 days a year even though he was suffering severe back pain. They tried all they could to make ends meet and yet never complained. But they started to complain after I left for US and stopped asking for tuition. They complain because they aren’t sure if I could get used to the American lifestyle and because they fear my feet will be dragged in US. “Mother worries when son travels a thousand miles.” This recent five years passed really fast to me, but it must have been the longest five years to them. I understand all these better after being a parent myself.

  • Cyclohydrocarbons: Structural Formulas Cyclohydrocarbons: Nomenclature
    Cyclohydrocarbons: Structural Formulas Cyclohydrocarbons are the cyclic, or ring, analogues of the alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes. These hydrocarbons are often referred to as alicyclic compounds, and the simplest class is made up of the cycloalkanes. Their general molecular formula is C n H2 n , where n equals any whole number of 3 or greater. Normally, these compounds are represented by geometric figures. Cyclohydrocarbons: Nomenclature Substituted cycloalkanes are named in a manner similar to the openchain, or aliphatic, alkanes. The following rules summarize the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) nomenclature for substituted cycloalkanes. 1. Determine the number of carbon atoms in the ring and in the largest substituent. If the ring has more carbons than the substituent, the compound is an alkyl-substituted cycloalkane. If the substituent possesses more carbons than the ring, the compound is a cycloalkyl alkane. 2. If an alkyl-substituted cycloalkane has more than one substituent, the ring is numbered so the substituents have the lowest sum of numbers. 3. If the molecule possesses two or more different substituent groups, the number one position is determined by alphabetical priority. Cyclohydrocarbons: Preparations Cycloalkanes can be prepared by ring-cyclization reactions, such as a modified Wurtz reaction or a condensation reaction. Additionally, they can be prepared from cycloalkenes and cycloalkynes (Figure 1 ). Figure 1 Cycloalkenes and cycloalkynes are normally prepared from cycloalkanes by ordinary alkene-forming reactions, such as dehydration, dehalogenation, and dehydrohalogenation. Typical preparations for cyclohexene and cyclohexyne are illustrated in Figure 2 . Figure 2 Cyclohydrocarbons: Reactions Due to angle strain, the bonds in three- and four-membered carbon rings are weak.

Page I-4-1 / Organic Chemistry Lab (in class) Organic Chemistry The classification of chemical compounds in to the general areas of organic and inorganic derives from the use of the "mineral, vegetable and animal" designation by the early workers in chemistry. Those compounds derived from living systems were termed organic (about 1777) whereas those derived from mineral sources were termed inorganic. In modern times, organic compounds are classified as compounds of carbon containing either carbon-carbon or carbon-hydrogen bonds or both.

  • L-4 Carbon and Its Compounds Formation of Hydrogen Molecule
    L-4 Carbon and its compounds Covalent Bond: The chemical bond formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms is known as covalent bond The sharing of electrons takes place in such a way that each atom in the resulting molecule gets the stable electron configuration of inert gases. Whenever a non metal combines with another non metal sharing of electrons takes place between their atoms. The bond formed between the atoms of the same element is a covalent bond. The shared electrons are counted with both the atoms due to which each atom in the resulting molecules gets an inert gas electron arrangement of either 8 electrons or 2 electrons in the outermost shell. Types of covalent bond : i. Single covalent bond ii. Double covalent bond iii. Triple covalent bond i. Single covalent bond Single covalent bond or single bond is formed by the sharing of one pair of electrons between two atoms. A single covalent bond is denoted by putting a short line (-) between two atoms. Formation of Hydrogen Molecule Hydrogen atom has only one electron in its outermost shell, and requires one more to acquire the nearest noble gas configuration of helium (He: 1s2). To do so, two hydrogen atoms contribute one electron each to share one pair of electrons between them. This leads to the formation of a single covalent bond between the two hydrogen atoms. Formation of Chlorine Molecule Chlorine atom has seven valence electrons. Thus, each Cl atom requires one more electron to acquire the nearest noble gas configuration (Ar:2, 8, 8).
