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...
The tosylhydrazones of 2-heptanone, 4,4-dimethy1-2-
heptanone, 6-heptyn-2-one and 4,4-dimethy1-6-heptyn-2-
one were synthesized and decomposed under a variety of
reaction conditions: dry lithium and sodium salt pyrolyses,
sodium methoxide thermolyses in diglyme and photolyses of
the lithium salt in tetrahydrofuran. The saturated analogues
2-heptanone tosylhydrazone and its 4,4-dimethyl
isomer afforded the...
The effect of the conjugation with cyclopropyl rings
on the activation parameters for the formation of
carbenes from the corresponding diazo compounds was
investigated using diisopropylcarbene (46), cyclopropyl-isopropylcarbene
(47), and dicyclopropylcarbene (48).
Each of these three carbenes was generated by the
thermolysis of the parent benzenesulfonylhydrazone
potassium salts using DMSO...
Enantioenriched sp³-hybridized carbenoid reagents CR1R2MX (X = nucleofuge, M = electrofuge) of different types were investigated for the synthesis of polysubstituted alkyl chains by iterative stereospecific reagent-controlled homologation (StReCH) and for the stereospecific connective synthesis of alkenes by eliminative cross-coupling.
In the first part, putative enantioenriched α-chloroalkyllithiums (CHRLiCl) were employed...
