Popis: | Photocyclization reactions of δ-hydroxybutyl α,β-unsaturated γ,δ-epoxy nitriles 4a, b at 254 nm lead to spiro ketals 5a, b and 6a, b arising from the carbonyl ylide intermediate A. The spiro ketal 6b containing an endocyclic double bond is transformed to spiro ether 16 by an acid-catalyzed 1,3-sigmatropic rearrangement. The ratio of spiro ketals 5 and 6 has been shown to depend on solvent polarity and acidity of additives. Application to the synthesis of pheromones is presented. X-ray crystal structure analyses are performed on dispiro compound 18 and spiro ester 25. |
