5.5 Ozonolysis of Alkenes 05_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/5/08 2:47 PM Page 196 196 CHAPTER 5 • ADDITION REACTIONS OF ALKENES As we just observed, neither method would yield a single compound with a 2-pentene as the start- ing alkene. Hence C cannot be prepared as a pure compound by either method. (Don’t worry— there are other ways to make this alcohol!) Finally, the possible alkene starting materials for alcohol D are cis- or trans-2-hexene and cis- or trans-3-hexene OH ? CH3CH2CH2CH CHCH3 or CH3CH2CH CHCH2CH3 CH3CH2CH2CHCH2CH3 2-hexene 3-hexene D Because the double bond in 3-hexene is symmetrically located, either method in principle would give alcohol D as the only product. Hence, either stereoisomer of 3-hexene is a satisfactory start- ing material. However, the reaction of a 2-hexene would, like the reaction of a 2-pentene, give a mixture of constitutional isomers by either method. PROBLEMS 5.11 From what alkene and by which method would you prepare each of the following alcohols essentially free of constitutional isomers? (a) (C2H5)3C OH (b) OH (c) L OH L 5.12 Which of the following alkenes would yield the same alcohol from either oxymercuration– reduction or hydroboration–oxidation, and which would give different alcohols? Explain. (a) cis-2-butene (b) 1-methylcyclohexene 5.5 OZONOLYSIS OF ALKENES Ozone, O3, adds to alkenes at low temperature to yield an unstable compound called a molo- zonide. The molozonide is spontaneously transformed into a second adduct, called simply an ozonide. Both carbon–carbon bonds of the double bond are broken in the formation of the ozonide.

(The suffix -lysis is used for describing bond-breaking processes. Examples are hydrolysis, “bond-breaking by water,” thermolysis, “bond-breaking by heat,” and ozonolysis, “bond-breaking by ozone.”) 05_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/5/08 2:47 PM Page 197 5.5 OZONOLYSIS OF ALKENES 197 Ozone and Its Preparation Ozone is a colorless gas that is formed in the stratosphere,the part of the atmosphere that lies about 6–30 miles above the earth’s surface,by the reaction of oxygen with short-wavelength ultraviolet ra- diation. It is very important in shielding the earth from longer-wavelength “UV-B”radiation, which it absorbs. Although depletion of stratospheric ozone is a significant environmental concern, an in- crease in ozone near the earth’s surface is also an environmental issue.This ozone,formed in complex reactions from nitrogen oxides and unburned hydrocarbons, is a significant contributor to smog. Ozone can be formed from the reaction of oxygen in electrical discharges.An atmospheric exam- ple is the formation of ozone in a thunderstorm by lightning.The laboratory preparation of ozone in- volves a similar reaction: electrical discharge 3O2 2O3 Ozone is produced in the laboratory by passing oxygen through an electrical discharge in a com- mercial apparatus called an ozonator. Because ozone is unstable,it cannot be stored in gas cylinders and must be produced as it is needed. The first step in ozonolysis, formation of the molozonide, is another addition reaction of the alkene p bond. The central oxygen of ozone is a positively charged electronegative atom and therefore strongly attracts electrons. The curved-arrow notation shows that this oxygen can accept an electron pair when the other oxygen of the OAO bond accepts p electrons from the alkene.

Additions that give rings are called cycloadditions. Furthermore, the cy- cloaddition of ozone occurs in a single step. Hence, this is another example, like hydrobora- tion, of a concerted mechanism. The molozonide cycloaddition product is unstable, and spontaneously forms the ozonide. In this reaction, the remaining carbon–carbon bond of the alkene is broken.

In most cases, however, the ozonides are treated further without isolation to give other compounds. Ozonides can be converted into aldehydes, ketones, or carboxylic acids, de- pending on the structure of the alkene starting material and the reaction conditions. When the ozonide is treated with dimethyl sulfide, (CH3)2S, the ozonide is split: CH3 O $ 1 H3C HC L L CH CH3 H3C S CH3 2 H3C CH A O $|S O1 _ (5.36) L L ++L 12 L L L 21 O" O" dimethyl sulfide an aldehyde CH3 L 05_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/5/08 2:47 PM Page 198 198 CHAPTER 5 • ADDITION REACTIONS OF ALKENES The net transformation resulting from the ozonolysis of an alkene followed by dimethyl sul- fide treatment is the replacement of a C A C group by two C A O groups: Further Exploration 5.3 $ ) $ Mechanism of Ozonide Conversion ) $ ) into Carbonyl the double bond is Compounds completely broken 1) O3 2) (CH3)2S H3C CH A CH CH3 H3C CHOA OACH CH3 (5.37) L L L + L A O here O A here If the two ends of the double bond are identical, as in Eq. 5.37, then two equivalents of the same product are formed.

Under these conditions (or if hydrogen peroxide is added specifically), aldehydes are converted into carboxylic acids, but ketones are unaffected. Hence, the alkene in Eq. 5.39 would react as follows: H3C H 1) O3 H3C OH 2) H2O ( H2O2) $C A C) + $C AO O A C) (5.40) + H3C) $CH3 H3C) $CH3 a ketone a carboxylic acid The different results obtained in ozonolysis are summarized in Table 5.1. If the structures of its ozonolysis products are known, then the structure of an unknown alkene can be deduced. This idea is illustrated in Study Problem 5.3.

Most of what is known about the chemical composition of SOA and HOMs, however, consists of molecular formulas and limited molecular structure identification based on mass spectrometric analysis. Here, we characterized the SOA formed from α-pinene ozonolysis using derivatization-spectrophotometric methods to quantify per- oxide, carbonyl, carboxyl, ester, and hydroxyl groups. Experiments were conducted over a range of α-pinene concentrations and relative humidities, including regimes in − which gas-phase HOMs were detected using NO3 chemical ionization mass spectrometry. Results for experiments conducted with high concentrations of α-pinene were also compared with predictions of a model that employed the Master Chemical Mechanism and included gas-particle and gas-wall partitioning. It appears that gas-phase monomer and dimer products formed • • • • through RO2 +RO2 ,RO2 +HO2,RO2 isomerization, and stabilized Criegee intermediate + carboxylic acid or water reactions contributed to SOA formation, but that in particles the aldehyde and ketone groups in these compounds were often converted to carboxyl and ester groups through Baeyer−Villiger reactions with hydroperoxides and peroxycarboxylic acids.

This transformation has not previously been done catalytically and has not been done in practical manner with stepwise or stoichiometric processes. Building on the previous work of the Lambert lab on the metathesis of cyclopropene and an aldehyde using a hydrazine catalyst, this work discusses efforts to expand to the less stained norbornene. Computational and experimental studies on the catalytic cycle are discussed, including detailed experimental work on how various factors affect the difficult cycloreversion step. The second portion of this thesis details the use of chiral cyclopropenimine bases as catalysts for asymmetric Michael reactions. The Lambert lab has previously developed chiral cyclopropenimine bases for glycine imine nucleophiles. The scope of these catalysts was expanded to include glycine imine derivatives in which the nitrogen atom was replaced with a carbon atom, and to include imines derived from other amino acids. i Table of Contents List of Abbreviations…………………………………………………………………………..iv Part I: Carbonyl-Olefin Metathesis…………………………………………………………… 1 Chapter 1 – Metathesis Reactions of Double Bonds………………………………………….. 1 Introduction………………………………………………………………………………. 1 Olefin Metathesis………………………………………………………………………… 2 Wittig Reaction…………………………………………………………………………... 6 Tebbe Olefination………………………………………………………………………... 9 Carbonyl-Olefin Metathesis…………………………………………………………….

  • Radical Approaches to Alangium and Mitragyna Alkaloids
    Radical Approaches to Alangium and Mitragyna Alkaloids A Thesis Submitted for a PhD University of York Department of Chemistry 2010 Matthew James Palframan Abstract The work presented in this thesis has focused on the development of novel and concise syntheses of Alangium and Mitragyna alkaloids, and especial approaches towards (±)-protoemetinol (a), which is a key precursor of a range of Alangium alkaloids such as psychotrine (b) and deoxytubulosine (c). The approaches include the use of a key radical cyclisation to form the tri-cyclic core. O O O N N N O O O H H H H H H O N NH N Protoemetinol OH HO a Psychotrine Deoxytubulosine b c Chapter 1 gives a general overview of radical chemistry and it focuses on the application of radical intermolecular and intramolecular reactions in synthesis. Consideration is given to the mediator of radical reactions from the classic organotin reagents, to more recently developed alternative hydrides. An overview of previous synthetic approaches to a range of Alangium and Mitragyna alkaloids is then explored. Chapter 2 follows on from previous work within our group, involving the use of phosphorus hydride radical addition reactions, to alkenes or dienes, followed by a subsequent Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction. It was expected that the tri-cyclic core of the Alangium alkaloids could be prepared by cyclisation of a 1,7-diene, using a phosphorus hydride to afford the phosphonate or phosphonothioate, however this approach was unsuccessful and it highlighted some limitations of the methodology. Chapter 3 explores the radical and ionic chemistry of a range of silanes.

PhD-thesis Wageningen University, Wageningen, The Netherlands – with references – with summaries in English and Dutch ISBN: 978-90-8504-787-2 Abstract Due to increasingly stringent environmental legislation car fuels have to be desulfurized to levels below 10 ppm in order to minimize negative effects on the environment as sulfur-containing emissions contribute to acid deposition (‘acid rain’) and to reduce the amount of particulates formed during the burning of the fuel. Moreover, low sulfur specifications are also needed to lengthen the lifetime of car exhaust catalysts.
