Treatment of 7-phenyltricyclo[4.1.0.02,7]heptane-1-carboxylic acid with benzenesulfenyl chloride, mercury acetate, and hydrogen chloride leads to cleavage of the central C-C bond in the bicyclobutane fragment and heterocyclization to substitute

Ring-opening alkylation of cyclopropylmethyl acetates was studied.The acetoxyl group of 7-(1-acetoxyheptyl)norcarane is substituted by the alkyl group upon treatment with trialkylaluminium, but alkylation of trans-1-(1-acetoxyethyl)-2-phenylcyclopropane with trialkylaluminium gives rise to trans-5-phenyl-2-alkenes.The reaction of (1S,2S)-2-phenylcyclopropylmethyl acetate with trimethylaluminium resulted in the complete loss of optical activity to give racemic 4-phenyl-1-pentene.Alkylation of trans-1-(1-acetoxy-3-phenylpropyl)-2-vinylcyclopropane with trialkylaluminium proceeds under regioselective ring-opening to give 3-alkylated trans-8-phenyl-1,5-octadiene (selectivity 73-83percent).The regio- and stereochemistry of homoconjugate addition to activated vinylcyclopropanes having a doubly carbonyl substituted ring carbon was studied.Trialkylaluminium on addition to diethyl 2-vinylcyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylate in a 1,5-manner afford diethyl (2-alkyl-3-butenyl)propanedioate (over 96percent selectivity).In contrast, the reaction of this cyclopropane with tetraalkylaluminiumlithium takes place in a 1.7-manner to give diethyl (trans-4-alkyl-2-butenyl)propanedioate with 88-92percent selectivity.Clean regiocontrol of the reaction is observed in the methylation of ethyl exo-6-(trans-1-propenyl)-2-oxobicyclo(3.1.0>hexane-1-carboxylate with trimethylaluminium or tetramethyl aluminiumlithium.Alkylation with trimethylaluminium proceeds with 86percent inversion of the configuration at C(6) of the substrate, affording (2R*,3R*)-2-ethoxycarbonyl-3-cyclopentanone which is transformed into neonepetalactone.
