Starting from simple aromatic aldehydes and acetylfuran, (E)-1-(furan-2-yl)-3-arylprop-2-en-1-ones (2) were synthesized in high yields. Cyclopropanation of the C=C bond with trimethylsulfoxonium iodide (Me 3SO+I-) furnished (furan-2-yl)(2-arylcyclopropyl)methanones 3 in 90-97% yields. Selective conversion of cyclopropyl ketones to their (E)- and (Z)-oxime ethers 5 and oxazaborolidine-catalyzed stereoselective reduction of the C=N bond followed by separation of the formed diastereoisomers, furnished (2-arylcyclopropyl)(furan-2-yl)methanamines 6 in optically pure form and high yield. Oxidation of the furan ring of (S,S,S)-, (S,R,R)-, (R,S,S)-, and (R,R,R)-6a afforded the four stereoisomers of α-(2-phenylcyclopropyl) glycine (1a).
Studies of NMR Chemical Shifts of Chalcone Derivatives of Five-membered Monoheterocycles and Determination of Aromaticity Indices

A series of the chalcone derivatives of the five-membered monoheterocyclic compounds, (E)-1-aryl-3-heteroarylpropen-1-ones, were prepared by aldol condensation of the corresponding aldehydes of thiophene, pyrrole, and furan with m- and p-substituted acetophenones. Similar condensation of the acetyl compounds of the heterocycles with m- and p-substituted benzaldehydes gave another series of the chalcone derivatives, (E)-1-heteroaryl-3-arylpropen-1-ones. The 13C chemical shift values (δC) of the chalcone derivatives were determined in order to find if they correlated with the Hammett σ values. A good correlation, especially for the β-C for both series, was found for the 13C chemical shift values (δC) of the chalcone derivatives with the Hammett σ values. The chemical shift values of the β-C of the heterocyclic compounds were plotted against those of the benzene derivatives. The resulting slopes were found to be close to the values of the aromaticity indices.
