Anodic oxidation of cycloheptatriene systems and its application to the synthesis of non-benzenoid aromatic compounds

Anodic oxidation of cycloheptatrienes has been found to be one of the most powerful key tools for the preparation of a variety of non-benzenoid aromatic compounds such as tropylium salts, tropones, tropolones, 2H-cyclohepta[b]furan-2-ones, and azulenes.

ANODIC TRANSFORMATION OF CYCLOHEPTATRIENE TO TROPONE AND TROPOLONE

Cycloheptatriene (CHT) has been directly transformed to 7-methoxycycloheptatriene (7-MCHT), an equivalent compound to a tropolium salt, by the anodic oxidation of CHT in methanol.The further anodic oxidation of 3-MCHT prepared from 7-MCHT has been found to be an effective method of synthesis of tropone and tropolone.

Novel process for synthesis of a liquid irritant, 1-methoxycycloheptratriene

An improved multi-step process for synthesizing the liquid irritant 1-metycycloheptatriene from tropylium tetrafluoborate the improvement comprising the step of using a polymerization/condensation inhibitor or retarder to minimize impurities and increase yield of the irritant product. Phenothiazine is the preferred polymerization inhibitor.
