Diels-Alder reactions of 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienes having carboxy, alkoxyccarbonyl, and cyano substituents at 5-positions with N-phenylmaleimide preferentially afforded the corresponding syn-attack products with the ratio of syn/anti=80 : 20 to 100 : 0, while the diene having 5-hydroxymethyl moiety gave the anti-attack product exclusively.

1,2,3,4,5-Pentamethyl-1,3-cyclopentadien-5-carbonyl chloride (2) is formed in good yields by the reaction of pentamethylcyclopentadienyllithium (1) with phosgene.The corresponding carbothioyl chloride 3 is synthesized by treatment of 1 with thiophosgene.Both acyl chlorides are stable against air and moisture and difficult to attack in SN2-type reactions.Treatment of 2 and 3 with trimethyl(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)stannane in the presence of boron trifluoride-ether leads to bis(1,2,3,4,5-pentamethyl-1,3-cyclopentadien-5-yl) ketone (5) and thioketone (6), respectively.Even at room temperature, 5 and 6 tend to intramolecular cycloaddition reactions.X-ray crystal structure investigations of 2, 5, and 6 show the steric demand of the pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligand and explain the untypical chemical behavior of 2 and the easy cycloaddition reactions of 5 and 6.

On the Reaction of (Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)lithium with Halomethanes and Formyl Compounds

In view to the synthesis of pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-substituted methane derivatives ("pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-carbon compounds") reactions of (pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)lithium with halomethans, formates, and corbon dioxide were investigated.While treatment with tri- and tetrahalomethanes leads to benzene derivatives via molecular rearrangement, reactions with formates and carbon dioxide yield pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-substituted methane derivatives.Attempts to prepare disubstituted species show the formation of by-products only.
