By means of competition experiments, the relative reactivities of benzvalene 111 and norbornene with regard to diazomethane and 2-diazopropane have been determined. The fact that benz­ valene reacts about twice as fast as norbornene with both diazoalkanes cannot be rationalized on the basis of frontier orbital energies.

The most generally applicable methods for the synthesis of 1, 3,5-cyclohepta­ triene derivatives are reactions of the tropylium cation with nucleophiles and the addition of carbenes to benzene. 1 While the former can give unequivocally only 7- monosubstituted cycloheptatrienes, the latter is also suitable for the preparation of certain derivatives disubstituted in the 7-position. However, many carbenes do not react with benzene or qive products only in low yields. Obviously, 7, 7-di- methylcycloheptatriene < Sd) cannot be obtained via this route, since it has exclu­ sively been prepared by using other approaches 2 ' 3 Formed in low yield on ther­ molysis or photolysis of diphenyldiazomethane in benzene, 7,7-diphenylcyclohepta­ triene C5;) appears in the litersture for the firsttime in 1988. 4 We wish to report here a three-step reaction sequence rendering cycloheptatrienes with one or two methyl or phenyl substituents in the 7-position accessible in good yields.

In the cases of diazoethane and phenyldiazomethane, the ratios of the diastereemers 2b : 2c '"' 1. 7 : 1. 0 and 2• : 2f • 1. 5 : 1. 0, respectively, indicate only a minor stereoselectivity. The structure of the 1-pyrazolines 2 is established unambiguously by analytical and spectral data.

Signature: Date: i Abstract Malaria is an infectious disease found in humans and other animals, it is caused by a single-cell parasite of the Plasmodium genus with many different substrains. Of these, P. falciparum is the most deadly to humans causing the majority of deaths. Although research into the area of antimalarial compounds is wide spread, few have been devel- oped with new structural features. Cordytropolone 37 is a natural product isolated in 2001 from the insect pathogenic fungus Cordyceps sp. BCC 1681 and has been shown to have antimalarial activity against P. falciparum. It has a structure unrelated to antimalarial com- pounds currently used in therapy. It does not contain a peroxide bridge as with artemisinin 25 or quinoline rings as with chloroquine 22. This unique structure indicates that it could possibly interact with the malaria parasite in a fashion unlike current treatments. In order for cordytropolone to be further developed as a potential treatment, it must first be synthe- sised in a laboratory environment. This study attempts to develop the first total synthesis of cordytropolone.

The smallest member of this hydrocarbon family was proposed by Ladenburg in 1869 as structure for benzene, and more than a century ago, the existence of triprimane became part of a discussion about cage compounds. Formally these cage compounds consist of an even number of methine units positioned at the corners of a regular prism. It's very high symmetry and their complex structure makes them not only difficult to preparate, but also highly strained. The conservation of orbital symmetry, publicised by Woodward and Hoffmann, is the most important facet about the durableness of triprismane and its thermodynamic stability. In 1965 Woodward won the nobel prize of chemistry for these rules. Seite 1 von 9 1.)

Fullerenes which were thought to be 'superaromatics' are actually 'super- alkenes'. Reactions in fuUerenesare varied, ranging from the addition of simple molecules like H 2 to large moleculeslike dendrimers.The synthesis,structure, characterization,along with simple reactions like halogenation, oxygenation, metalation,cydoaddition, polymeri- zation and dendrimer addition are discussed. Keywards. Fullerenes;C6o; C7o; characterization;reactions. 1. Introduction Fullerenes and their derivatives possess a number of potentially useful physical, biological and chemical properties. Our interest in the chemistry of fullerenes led us to present this review in which we have attempted to furnish an overall picture of the properties of these novel molecules. The scope of the review is however limited. The conclusion of the authors contributing to this rapidly growing field of research are accepted and presented in a concise manner highlighting the salient features of the original work. The technique developed by Kr/itschmer et al (1990) for preparing and isolating macroscopic quantities of C6o, 'a new form of carbon', opened the way for exploring the molecular and bulk properties of these novel species. Kroto et al (1985) reported the nature and chemical reactivity of C6o species produced during the nucleation of carbon plasma. C6o , which was found to be stable, was named buckminsterfullerene after Buckminster Fuller, American architect, engineer and constructor of geodesic dome.

The chair-like structures of hexasila- and hexagermabenzene are similar to a nonaromatic cyclohexane (CH2)6 and dissimilar to aromatic D6h-symmetric benzene (CH)6, although silicon and germanium are in the same group of the periodic table as carbon. Recently, six-membered silicon and germanium rings with extra electrons instead of conventional substituents, such as alkyl, aryl, etc., were calculated by us to have D6h symmetry and to be aromatic. We summarize here our main findings and the background needed to reach them, and propose a synthetically accessible molecule. Keywords: aromaticity; density-functional-theory calculations; Wade’s rule; Zintl phases; silicon clusters; germanium clusters 1. Introduction This review treats the subject of hexagonal silicon and germanium clusters, paying attention to the two-dimensional aromaticity. The concept of aromaticity is one of the most fascinating problems in chemistry [1,2]. Benzene is the archetypical aromatic hexagon of carbon: it is a planar, cyclic, fully conjugated system that possesses delocalized electrons. The two-dimensional aromaticity of planar monocyclic systems is governed by Hückel’s 4N + 2 rule, where N is the number of electrons.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Due to their increased size loss of entropy, torsional strain and unfavourable transannular interactions, as well as other effects require different synthetic approaches than the smaller homologues. In this work, different pathways were explored for the efficient synthesis of the seven-, eight- and nine- membered rings of marine polyether polycyclic natural products, through the expansion of a common six-membered ether substrate.
