7,7-Dichlorobicyclohept-2-en-6-one and 7endo-chlorobicyclohept-2-en-6-one are reduced regio-specifically and with high substrate enantioselectivity using a 3α,20β-hydroxysteroid alcohol dehydrogenase.

Thermal rearrangement of 7-methylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene: An experimental probe of the extent of orbital symmetry control in the [1,3] sigmatropic rearrangement

The gas-phase thermal rearrangement of exo-7-methylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene yields almost exclusively 5-methylnorbornene products. Inversion (i) of configuration dominates this [1,3] sigmatropic shift although some retention (r) is also observed. Because the [1,3] migration can only occur suprafacially (s) in this geometrically constrained system, the si/sr ratio of 7 observed for the migration of C7 in exo-7-methylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene indicates that the orbital symmetry rules are somewhat permissive for the [1,3] sigmatropic migration of carbon.

Bicyclohept-2-en-6-ols, central building blocks for the synthesis of chiral cyclobutane and -pentane systems, were prepared with up to >99percent e.e. by lipase catalysed resolution of their acetates, butyrates, or isobutyrates.Substituents at C-7 vicinal to the reaction site reduced both enantioselectivity and reaction rate, whereas variation of the acid moiety showed a smaller influence.Among the lipases tested, those from Pseudomonas sp. were shown to be superior to those from Candida cylindracea, Mucor sp. and porcine pancreas.
