  • Intramolecular Ene Reactions of Functionalised Nitroso Compounds
    INTRAMOLECULAR ENE REACTIONS OF FUNCTIONALISED NITROSO COMPOUNDS A Thesis Presented by Sandra Luengo Arratta In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Award of the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON Christopher Ingold Laboratories Department of Chemistry University College London 20 Gordon Street London WC1H 0AJ July 2010 DECLARATION I Sandra Luengo Arratta, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where work has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ABSTRACT This thesis concerns the generation of geminally functionalised nitroso compounds and their subsequent use in intramolecular ene reactions of types I and II, in order to generate hydroxylamine derivatives which can evolve to the corresponding nitrones. The product nitrones can then be trapped in the inter- or intramolecular mode by a variety of reactions, including 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions, thereby leading to diversity oriented synthesis. The first section comprises the chemistry of the nitroso group with a brief discussion of the current methods for their generation together with the scope and limitations of these methods for carrying out nitroso ene reactions, with different examples of its potential as a powerful synthetic method to generate target drugs. The second chapter describes the results of the research programme and opens with the development of methods for the generation of functionalised nitroso compounds from different precursors including oximes and nitro compounds, using a range of reactants and conditions. The application of these methods in intramolecular nitroso ene reactions is then discussed. Chapter three presents the conclusions which have been drawn from the work presented in chapter two, and provides suggestions for possible directions of this research in the future.

They can be obtained by derivatisation reactions starting from chiral molecules such as L-proline and 2S,4R-4-hydroxyproline or by metal catalysed cyclisation reactions of N- substituted allenic amines.66 Since large amounts of vinyl pyrrolidines have to be synthetically available for the systematic examination of the aza-Claisen rearrangement and its application in a total synthesis, especially the ex-chiral pool synthesis of these precursors has been extensively investigated by our group.67 The following two schemes represent the synthesis of the vinyl pyrrolidines [6] and [11] that have been used in this work as precursors for the aza-Claisen rearrangement.

Miguel Madeira Examiner in FEUP: Eng. Fernando Martins Supervisor in ICT: Doc. Ing Petr Zámostný July 2008 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Doc. Ing. Petr Zámostný for the opportunity to hold a master's thesis in this project, the orientation, the support given during the laboratory work and suggestions for improvement through the work. i Hydrocarbons Thermal Cracking Selectivity Depending on Their Structure and Cracking Parameters Abstract This research deals with the study of hydrocarbon thermal cracking with the aim of producing ethylene, one of the most important raw materials in Chemical Industry. The main objective was the study of cracking reactions of hydrocarbons by means of measuring the selectivity of hydrocarbons primary cracking and evaluating the relationship between the structure and the behavior. This project constitutes one part of a bigger project involving the study of more than 30 hydrocarbons with broad structure variability. The work made in this particular project was focused on the study of the double bond position effect in linear unsaturated hydrocarbons. Laboratory experiments were carried out in the Laboratory of Gas and Pyrolysis Chromatography at the Department of Organic Technology, Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague, using for all experiments the same apparatus, Pyrolysis Gas Chromatograph, to increase the reliability and feasibility of results obtained. Linear octenes with different double bond position in hydrocarbon chain were used as model compounds. In order to achieve these goals, the primary cracking reactions were studied by the method of primary selectivities.

  • PDF (Appendix 2: the Cope Rearrangement)
    65 APPENDIX TWO The Cope Rearrangement A2.1 The Cope Rearrangement In 1940, Arthur Cope discovered a thermal rearrangement of 1,5-diene 137a to a more conjugated isomeric 1,5-diene (137b, Scheme A2.1.1).1 Cope postulated that his rearrangement was an all-carbon analogue of the Claisen rearrangement,2 and was intramolecular. He speculated that the reaction proceeded through a six-membered transition state. Cope published these hypotheses 25 years before Woodward and Hoffman3 disclosed the first papers on conservation of orbital symmetry, a theory that explained the molecular orbital basis for synchronous Cope rearrangements, calling them [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangements. Scheme A2.1.1 The Cope rearrangement 150–160 °C NC NC Me 4 h Me EtO2C EtO2C Me Me 137a 137b A2.2 Transition State Geometry in Concerted Cope Rearrangements4 Thermal [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangements occur with suprafacial–suprafacial geometries3 through a six-membered cyclic transition state in either a chair or boat conformation. In 1962, Doering and Roth5 determined that in simple cases, the Cope rearrangement proceeded through a chair-like transition state (Scheme A2.2.1). On the basis of product ratios, Doering and Roth estimated that ΔΔG‡ (boat–chair) for meso 66 138a was 5.7 kcal/mol. Subsequent experiments by Hill excluded the twist (helix) arrangement,6 which had not been considered by Doering and Roth.

Me Me Me Me 138d While simple Cope rearrangements employ a chair transition state, the boat transition state is used when molecules are geometrically constrained, as is the case with 1,2-divinyl cyclopropanes in which the vinyl groups are nearly elipsed.7 Most 1,2- divinylcyclobutanes also proceed through boat transition states,8,9 but their larger ring size accompanies greater structural flexibility.
