Saccharin sulfonic acid (SaSA), as a stable reagent is easily prepared by the reaction of saccharin with neat chlorosulfonic acid at room temperature. This compound is able to catalyze conversion of amines to their corresponding N-Boc protected amines with (Boc)2O. Alcohols were also converted to their corresponding tert-butyl ethers. All reactions took place under mild conditions giving the desired products in good to high yields.

Derivatives of bicycloheptatriene have been generated in solution by the base-induced dehydrochlorination of gem-dichlorocyclopropanes.Reaction of 7,7-dichlorodibenzobicycloheptane with potassium tert-butoxide in tetrahydrofuran at 0 deg C gives mainly products derived from solvent incorporation by carbene insertion.Evidence that the carbene results from rearrangement of the bicycloheptatriene derives from the successful interception of the bicycloheptatriene with nucleophile (MeS-). endo-7-Chlorodibenzobicycloheptane failed to reactwith potassium tert-butoxide in tetrahydrofuran.Generation of benzobicycloheptatrienes was also accomplished via the base-induced dehydrochlorination of gem-dichlorocyclopropanes. 1-Methylbenzobicycloheptatriene gives products derived from multiple carbene-carbene rearrangements.In contrast, nonannelated methylbicycloheptatrienes generated by the dehydrochlorination route give only carbene-derived products resulting from the initially produced bicycloheptatriene.
