Base-induced α-elimination from substituted 0-4-nitrophenylsulfonylhydroxamic acids has been used as a mild source of nitrenes for capture by [60]fullerene; rearrangment of the resulting [60]fullereno[1′,2′:2,3]aziridine bearing a N-ethoxycarbonyl groupin

A new method for the smooth and highly efficient preparation of polyalkylated aryl propiolates has been developed. It is based on the formation of the corresponding aryl carbonochloridates (cf Scheme 1 and Table 1) that react with sodium (or lithium) propiolate in THF at 25-65°, with intermediate generation of the mixed anhydrides of the arylcarbonic acids and prop-2-ynoic acid, which then decompose almost quantitatively into CO2 and the aryl propiolates (cf. Scheme 11). This procedure is superior to the transformation of propynoic acid into its difficult-to-handle acid chloride, which is then reacted with sodium (or lithium) arenolates. A number of the polyalkylated aryl propiolates were subjected to flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) at 600-650°and 10-2 Torr which led to the formation of the corresponding cyclohepta[b]furan-2(2H)-ones in average yields of 25-45% (cf. Scheme 14). It has further been found in pilot experiments that the polyalkylated cyclohepta[b]furan-2(2H)-ones react with 1-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)cyclohexene in toluene at 120-130°to yield the corresponding 1,2,3,4- tetrahydrobenz[a]azulenes, which become, with the growing number of Me groups at the seven-membered ring, more and more sensitive to oxidative destruction by air (cf. Scheme 15).
