Arylcarbenes with unsaturated ortho substituents (vinyloxy, 1-propenyloxy, allyl, 2-butenyl, 2,4-pentadienyl) were generated in methanol by photolysis of diazo precursors. Intermolecular OH insertion was found to compete with intramolecular addition to th
Intramolecular Cycloaddition Reactions of Olefinic Tosylhydrazones

A series of olefinic tosylhydrazones were prepared, and their base- and acid-induced behavior was investigated.Thermolysis of the sodium salt of the tosylhydrazones generates diazoalkenes which undergo intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions.The exclusive formation of the tetrahydroindenopyrazole ring from thermolysis of o-allylbenzaldehyde tosylhydrazones is unusual and cannot be easily accounted for on the basis of frontier molecular orbital theory.Our results indicate that geometrical factors can force the reaction to occur in a manner opposite to that normally encountered.Further heating of several methyl-substituted indenopyrazolines indicates that benzobicyclohexene formation proceeds with predominant inversion of configuration.The results are consistent with a mechanism involving C-N bond cleavage followed by rotation about the ? bond and back-side displacement of nitrogen.Treatment of the olefinic tosylhydrazones with boron trifluoride etherate resulted in a novel cyclization reaction.The regioselectivity associated with the acid-induced cyclization is the consequence of a carbocation pathway.
