Radical cation vinylcyclopropane rearrangements by TiO2 photocatalysis in lithium perchlorate/nitromethane solution are described. The reactions are triggered by oxidative single electron transfer, which is followed by immediate ring-opening of the cyclopropanes to generate distonic radical cations as unique reactive intermediates. This approach can also be applied to vinylcyclobutane, leading to the construction of six-membered rings. A stepwise mechanism via distonic radical cations is proposed based on preliminary mechanistic studies, which is supported by density functional theory calculations.

Two new arylpiperazine derivatives, the 4-(1-piperazinyl)thieno- and -furopyridine ring systems, have been synthesized and appended via tetramethylene chains to various imide rings.Target compounds from each series were found to have significant activity in the blockade of apomorphine stereotypy and apomorphine-induced climbing, the Sidman avoidance response, and the conditioned avoidance response.In addition, while potent affinity for serotonin 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptors was observed for both the thieno- and furopyridine derivatives,the interaction of these molecules with the dopamine D2 receptor was weak.Electrophysiological studies of the lead prototypes from each series, involving compounds 22 and 33, indicate these two molecules have distinctively different effects on dopamine neurons in areas A9 and A10.Despite the similarity these molecules share in their behavioral indices of antipsychotic acivity, it is likely that the thieno- and furopyridine rings employ different mechanisms to achieve this convergence of biological effects.
