NMR and GC/MS spectroscopy of the organic extracts of the oscillatory bromate-1,4-cyclohexanedione reaction illustrate the presence of ring-opening products 5-(dibromomethylene)-2(5H)-furanone, (E)-5,5,5-tribromo-4-oxo-2-pentenoic acid, and dibromoacetic acid, particularly at elevated temperatures. The loss of a carbon atom from the six-membered ring after ring opening led to gas formation and such a process became more vigorous at >60 °C, with the direct observation of bubbles in a stirred batch reactor. Gravimetric experiments confirm that the amount of carbon dioxide gas produced increases rapidly with reaction temperature. Parallel experiments suggest that the ring-opening process involves the oxidation of brominated benzoquinones by bromate. Copyright © …

Dehydrotropylium-Co2(Co)6 Ion. Generation, Reactivity And Evaluation Of Cation Stability, Sheida Amiralaei, James Gauld, James R. Green
Chemistry and Biochemistry Publications
The dehydrotropylium–Co2(CO)6 ion was generated by the action of HBF4 or BF3⋅OEt2 on the corresponding cycloheptadienynol complex, which in turn has been prepared in four steps from a known diacetoxycycloheptenyne complex. The reaction of the cycloheptadienynol complex via the dehydrotropylium–Co2(CO)6 ion with several nucleophiles results in substitution reactions with reactive nucleophiles (N>1) under normal conditions, and a radical dimerisation reaction in the presence of less reactive nucleophiles. Competitive reactions of the cycloheptadienynol complex with an acyclic trienynol complex show no preference for generation of the dehydrotropylium–Co2 …
Synthesis Of ‘Spacer’-Naproxen [2-(6-Methoxybiphenylen-2-Yl)Propanoic Acid] And -Isonaproxen [2-(7-Methoxybiphenylen-2-Yl)Propanoic Acid], Juan A. González Gómez, James R. Green, Peter C. Vollhardt
Synthesis Of ‘Spacer’-Naproxen [2-(6-Methoxybiphenylen-2-Yl)Propanoic Acid] And -Isonaproxen [2-(7-Methoxybiphenylen-2-Yl)Propanoic Acid], Juan A. González Gómez, James R. Green, Peter C. Vollhardt
Chemistry and Biochemistry Publications
The CpCo(CO)2-catalyzed cocyclization of 1,2-diethynyl- 4-methoxybenzene with alkynes can be applied to the synthesis of ‘spacer’-naproxen [2-(6-methoxybiphenylen-2-yl)propanoic acid] and its 7-methoxy isomer, ‘spacer’-isonaproxen. While unsymmetrical alkynes are incorporated without regioselectivity, the methoxy group in 6-methoxy-2,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)biphenylene directs electrophiles to C-3, thus allowing for regiochemical differentiation between the 2- and 3-positions.
