Previous studies of a synthesis of phomactin A had resulted in the synthesis of a 15-methylenebicyclo[9.3.1]pentadecadiene. The next step in the synthesis was to be the epoxidation of this methylenecyclohexane that was hoped would lead to a 1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohexene by rearrangement of the exocyclic epoxide, but the epoxidation was difficult to carry out regioselectively on advanced intermediates. However, oxidation of a 15-methylenebicyclo[9.3.1]pentadeca-3,7-dien-14-ol using tetra-n-propylammonium perruthenate and N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide led to conversion of this homoallylic alcohol into the corresponding 14-oxobicyclo[9.3.1]pentadeca-1(15),3,7-triene-15-carboxaldehyde in one step. Reduction of this using DIBAL-H gave a promising intermediate for a synthesis of a phomactin. The scope of this oxidation of homoallylic alcohols was briefly investigated.

Treatment of the ammonium (I) or benzylammonium salt of 2,6-dihydroxy-3-(β-hydroxyethyl)-4-methyl-5-cyanopyridine (II) with a mixture of benzylamine and phosphorus pentoxide yielded 2-benzylamino-3-(β-hydroxyethyl)-4-methyl-5-cyano -6-hydroxypyridine (III), which, when heated with phosphorus oxychloride, is converted to 1-benzyl-4-methyl-5-cyano-6-hydroxy-7-azaindoline (IV).The products of thermal fragmentation of II with benzylamine were studied by the method of chromato-mass spectrometry.In addition to compound III, N,N'-dibenzylurea (V) and the dibenzylamide of malonic acid (VI) were preparatively isolated from the reaction products .The cyclization of I and II to 4-methyl-6-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-7-azabenzofuran (VII) and 4-methyl-5-cyano-6-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-7-azabenzofuran (VIII) was carried out.Heating VIII with benzylamine at 200-210 grad C led to compound III.
