  • Conformation and reactivity studies of some bicyclo(3.3.1) nonane derivatives

    Creator:
    Sturmer, David Michael
    Abstract:
    New syntheses for 2-bicyclo(3.3.1)nonanone and 7-bicyclo-(3.3.1)nonen-2-one were developed. The saturated ketone was prepared from phenol and acrylonitrile via a novel intramolecular S[subscript N]2 cyclization process. A Friedel-Crafts cyclization of 3-(3-cyclohexenyl)propanoyl chloride permitted synthesis of the unsaturated ketone from 4-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde. The formation of the bicyclo(3.3.1)nonane rather than a bicyclo(3.2.2)nonane skeleton...

  • Reactions of organoboranes

    Creator:
    Thompson, Thomas Myron
    Abstract:
    An examination was made of some reactions involving a transfer of carbon from boron to carbon. In the case of the reaction of a C[subscript n] alkylorganoborane with dichlorocarbene the intermediate was a C[subscript n]₊₁ chloroalkylorganoborane. Oxidation of this intermediate yielded an homologous acid (33%) and the usual alcohol (66%)....

  • Formation of alkyl-and dialkylcarbenes. The 3-cyclohexenyl carbinyl carbene system

    Creator:
    Crouse, Dale McClish
    Abstract:
    The 3-cyclohexenyl carbinyl carbene species was formed by the thermal decomposition of the p-toluenesulfonylhydrazone sodium salt and by oxidation of the hydrazone. Several oxidizing agents were studied. The products were investigated under aprotic and protic conditions and at various temperatures. The diazocompound was formed as an intermediate and found to...

  • Steroid organoborane reactions

    Creator:
    Byall, Elliott Bruce
    Abstract:
    Steroid organoboranes have been found to be useful synthetic intermediates. Attempted pyrolyses, based on simple trialkylborane cyclizations, have not yielded C-19 or C-18 functionalized steroids, but have produced isomerized systems not otherwise available. Thus, hydroboration of cholesterol followed by pyrolysis at 215° gives 31% of 2-cholestene-6α-ol and 49% of a...
