, p. 1825 - 1828 (2007/10/02)
A convenient synthesis of 5α,8α, 14α, 17α-5,6,8,9,14,15,17,18 - octahydro-5,17:8,14-diepoxydibenzo[e,e′]benzo[1,2-a:4,5-a′ dicyclooctene (2) is described. This molecular cleft represents the parent of a new class of chiral molecular tweezers. It forms a clathrate with ethyl acetate which is stable even after 12 hours at 0.1 Tort. The structure of 2 was established by spectral and X-ray data. A convenient synthesis of 5a,8a,14a,17a-5,6,8,9,14,15,17,18-octahydro-5,17:8,14-diepoxydibenzo[e, e′]benzo[1,2-a:4,5-a′]icyclooctene (2) is described. It forms a clathrate with ethyl acetate which is stable even after 12 hours at .1 Torr. (Chemical Equation Presented).
Molecular Clefts. 1. Synthetic Methodology for the Preparation of Analogues of Kagan's Ether
Harmata, Michael,Murray, Thomas
, p. 3761 - 3763 (2007/10/02)
A synthesis of analogues of Kagan's ether 7a is reported.The procedure has reasonable generality and promises to be important in the synthesis of molecular clefts.The final step consists of an electrophilic attack of an oxonium ion on an aromatic ring, an
