- Microwave-assisted solvent-free Diels-Alder reaction - A fast and simple route to various 5,6-substituted norbornenes and polychlorinated norbornenes
-
A series of 5,6-substituted norbornenes and 5,6-substituted polychlorinated norbornenes was prepared by using a microwave-assisted Diels-Alder reaction. This procedure proved very versatile, fast, and with an easy workup step, and therefore suitable even for large-scale synthesis. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.

In this report we describe the ring-rearrangement metathesis of 2-aminonorbornene derivatives. An efficient ruthenium-catalysed metathesis reaction occurs with a wide range of pendent alkenes and alkynes to generate bicyclic amines and amides. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

- 2-Chlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxamide and 2-chlorobicyclo[2.2.1] heptane-2-carboxamide as precursors of bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-one and bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one: Resolution, absolute configuration and hydrogen-bonding properties
-
The absolute configuration of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one has not been correlated with a crystal structure of a chemical precursor. The only chemical correlation available had an ambiguity, which could have reversed the assignment. Herein, we report the resolution of 2-chlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en- 2-exo-carboxamide on a cellulose triacetate column and the crystal structures of the enantiomerically pure and racemic α-chloroamide. We found the absolute configuration (1R,2R,4R) for the (+)-enantiomer of the α-chloroamide. This compound was converted to (+)-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5- ene-2-one by base hydrolysis, and the 5,6-unsaturated compounds converted to the saturated congeners. This is the first unambiguous experimental determination of the absolute configuration of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one and of bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-one. The three crystal structures of 2-chlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-exo-carboxamide reported herein reveal H-bonded dimers, with two distinct orientations of the bicyclic portion relative to the carboxamide dimer. In the racemic crystal, each dimer is composed of two enantiomers, and the bicyclic portions have their bridge carbon atom (C-7) on opposite sides of the H-bonded carboxamide dimer moiety. In the enantiomerically pure crystals, the major dimer had both C-7 atoms on the same side of the carboxamide dimer moiety while the minor dimer had the C-7 atoms on opposite sides. The dimers are present in solution, and can be easily monitored.

- PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR RELIEVING PAIN AND TREATING CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISORDERS
-
Patients susceptible to or suffering from disorders, such as central nervous system disorders, which are characterized by an alteration in normal neurotransmitter release, such as dopamine release (e.g., Parkinsonism, Parkinson's Disease, Tourette's Syndrome, attention deficient disorder, or schizophrenia), are treated by administering a compound of Formulas (1 or 2), as described herein. The compounds of Formulas (1 and 2) are also useful for treating pain, and treating drug addiction, nicotine addiction, and/or obesity. The compounds can exist as individual stereoisomers, racemic mixtures, diastereomers and the like.

- Acid-Catalyzed Hydrolysis of Bridged Bi- and Tricyclic Compounds. XXVI. The Mechanisms of Formation of the Hydration Products of 2-Norbornen-5-one
-
The acid-catalyzed hydration of 2-norbornen-5-one (1) in 5 mol dm-3 HClO4 at 358 K produces, according to GLC analyses, exo-5-hydroxy-2-norbornanone (2), 2-oxabicycloctan-3-one (3), which is in equilibrium with cis-3-hydroxycyclopentaneacetic acid (5), and 2-oxabicyclooctan-3-one (4).The former lactone (3) is unstable and rearranges slowly to the latter (4).The ketoalcohol (2) is formed via the slow protonation of norbornenone at C(3) and via subsequent hydration of the carbocation.The lactones are formed via complicated routes started by the protonation of norbornenone at C(2), and comprising 3- and 2-cyclopentaneacetic acid (7 and 9) as unstable intermediate products.

-
Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation of the trimethylsilyl enol ether of norbornenone has been found to generate the 2-trimethylsilyl ether of homoquadricyclene, homoketonization of which affords the symmetrical tricyclo2,7>octan-4-one regiospecifically with high stereoselectivity favoring inversion of configuration.
