Multiply substituted zirconacyclopentadienes including bicyclic zirconacyclopentadienes and zirconaindenes reacted with isocyanates and isothiocyanates in the presence of Lewis acids to afford iminocyclopentadienes and conjugated 1,6-bisamides, depending on the nature of Lewis acids, isocyanates, and isothiocyanates used. Only in the presence of BF3 could iminocyclopentadienes be obtained in high isolated yields when zirconacyclopentadienes were treated with isocyanates. On the contrary, BF3 could not mediate the reaction of zirconacyclopentadienes with isothiocyanates. For the reactions of zirconacyclopentadienes with isothiocyanates, EtAlCl2 was found effective to generate iminocyclopentadienes as the products. Interestingly, however, for the reactions of zirconacyclopentadienes with isocyanates, EtAlCl2 was found to work very differently from BF3. Instead of iminocyclopentadienes, conjugated 1,6-bisamides and conjugated mono-amides were obtained as products in high isolated yields from the reactions of zirconacyclopentadienes with isocyanates, depending on the substituents of isocyanates. The reaction path and products could be controlled by Lewis acids. As a demonstration of the usefulness of thus obtained unsaturated bisamides, electrophilic cyclization using acids, NBS, and I2 was carried out. Electrophilic cyclization of multisubstituted conjugated 1,6-bisamide derivatives afforded cyclic iminoethers in excellent yields with perfect selectivity. Only one of the amide groups took part in the electrophilic cyclization.

Reaction patterns of 1,4-dilithio-butadiene derivatives with isothiocyanates RNCS and isocyanates RNCO were investigated and synthetically useful preparative methods were developed. Isothiocyanates reacted with 1,4-dilithio-butadienes to afford iminocyclopentadiene derivatives in excellent isolated yields and high selectivity. When aromatic isothiocyanates were used, cleavage of the CS double bond of a RNCS molecule took place via a successive inter-intramolecular carbophilic addition. A number of products were obtained from the reaction of isocyanates with 1,4-dilithio-butadienes, probably due to the high reactivity of isocyanates towards 1,4-dilithio-butadienes.
