Flow Chemistry under Extreme Conditions: Synthesis of Macrocycles with Musklike Olfactoric Properties

Starting from small cyclic ketones, continuous flow synthesis is used to produce medium-sized rings and macrocycles that are relevant for the fragrance industry. Triperoxides are important intermediates in this process and are pyrolyzed at temperatures above 250 °C. The synthesis is carried out in two continuously operated flow reactors connected by a membrane-operated separator. The practicality of flow chemistry is impressively demonstrated in this work by the use of hazardous reagent mixtures (30% H2O2, 65% HNO3) and the pyrolysis of no less problematic peroxides. All new macrocycles were tested for their olfactory properties in relation to musk.

The chemistry of thiophene-based bis-(p-quinodimethanes): An approach to macrocycles

Bis-2,5-dimethylene-2,5-dihydrothiophenes have been generated in the gas-phase by flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) of diester precursors. These thiophene-based bis-(p-quinodimethanes) are shown to undergo reactions leading to macrocycles. The conversions are consistent with a mechanism involving cyclic diradical intermediates followed by disproportionation of the radical centers.

Cyclooctane metathesis catalyzed by silica-supported tungsten pentamethyl [(ΞSiO)W(Me)5]: Distribution of macrocyclic alkanes

Metathesis of cyclic alkanes catalyzed by the new surface complex [(ΞSiO)W(Me)5] affords a wide distribution of cyclic and macrocyclic alkanes. The major products with the formula CnH2n are the result of either a ring contraction or ring expans

Catalytic ring expansion, contraction, and metathesis-polymerization of cycloalkanes

Tandem dehydrogenation-olefin-metathesis catalyst systems, comprising a pincer-ligated iridium-based alkane dehydrogenation catalyst and a molybdenum-based olefin-metathesis catalyst, are reported to effect the metathesis-cyclooligomerization of cyclooctane and cyclodecane to give cycloalkanes with various carbon numbers, predominantly multiples of the substrate carbon number, and polymers.
