Kadow, John F.,Johnson, Carl R.
, p. 5255 - 5258 (1984)
Fused cyclopropanes including 3-carene and isosequicarene have been prepared by treatment of γ-stannyl alcohols with thionyl chloride.

Two copper salts (Cu(CF3CO2)2 and IMesCuCl) were identified as earth-abundant, inexpensive, but effective metal catalysts together with diazo malonate for chemo-/regioselective and stereospecific deoxygenation of various epoxides with tolerance of common functional groups (alkene, ketone, ester, p-methoxybenzyl, benzyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl, and triisopropylsilyl). In particular, the unprecedented regioselectivity allowed for the first time monodeoxygenation of diepoxides to alkenyl epoxides. Density functional theory mechanistic studies showed that the deoxygenation occurred by collapsing the free ylide, unfavoring the possible intuitive pathway via cycloreversion of possible oxetane.
Thermal transformation of monoterpenes within thionin-supported zeolite Na-Y. Acid-catalyzed or electron transfer-induced?

Several monoterpenes (monocyclic, bicyclic or acyclic) isomerize and finally transform to p-cymene in the dark upon loading within thionin-supported zeolite Na-Y. The same reactions occur in Na-Y dried under the same conditions as thionin/Na-Y. It is postulated that the thermal treatment of Na-Y generates 'electron holes' (probably acidic sites). The transformation of monoterpenes occurs more likely via an electron transfer-induced reaction subordinated to the occurrence of the acidic sites. The radical cation of the more thermodynamically stable monoterpene, α-terpinene, eventually dehydrogenates to p-cymene. For comparison, the same reactions were performed within methyl viologen-supported Na-Y. Copyright
