Research Abstract |
1. Development of New Synthetic Methods for Cage Compounds. 4-Homoadamantanones containing an alkyl or aryl substituent, or deuterium or carbon-13 on the 3-position were synthesized by utilizing our acylative ringexpansion techniqued Meanwhile, a convenient method for the synthesis of 4 (e)-hydroxy- or -methoxy-2-adamantanone was developed by utilizing the solvolysis of easily available 2-oxo-4 (a)-adamantly triflate. 2. Development of New System Showing Enhanced Ionization Due to F-Strain. Rigid cage compounds such as (Z)-2-ethylidenebicyclo[2.2.2]oct-l-yl triflate and (Z)-2-ethylidene-l-adamantyl mesylate and halides were found to solvolyze 200-10, 000 times faster than the corresponding E isomers. Molecular mechanics calculations showed that the origin of the enhanced rates is the repulsions between the (Z)-methyl group and the atom in the leaving group that is directly attached to the reaction center. 3. Structure of 2-Oxo Cations. The rates of solvolysis of various new 2methylene and 2-oxo bridgehead compounds were determined. The rate data showed that the intermediate carbocation from flexible 2-methylene compounds are stabilized by allylic conjugation, whereas that from the corresponding 2-oxo compounds cannot be stabilized by carbonyl conjugation. The results indicate the unimportance of carbonyl conjugation in carbocations. 4. Through-bond Interaction in 3-Oxo Cations. Previously, we proposed that the rates of solvolysis can be enhanced by the stabilization of the intermediate carbocation due to the through-bond interaction of the carbonyl lone-pair with the cationic p orbital. In the present work, 4-oxo-2 (e) adamantly triflate was found to solvolyze assisted by the through-bond interaction. On the other hand, the effect vanished in the solvolysis of 2-aryl-4-oxo-2 (e)-adamantly trifluoroacetate, which gives a highly stable carbocation. The results reinforce the previous. conclusion for the existence of the carbonyl through-bond interaction in carbocations.
