HETEROCYCLIC CHEMISTRY
According to recent research published in the
Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry, "Dialkylpropyn-1-yi(or
allyl)(3-isopropenylpr opyn-2-yl)ammonium bromides under base-catalyzed
condition instantly undergo intramolecular cyclization. The cyclization
of dialkylpropyn-1-yl(3-isopropenylpropyn-2-yl)ammoni um bromides
leads to the formation of 2,2-dialkyl-5-methylisoindolinium salts."
"In case of allyl analogs, instead of the expected
2,2-dialkyl-6-methyl-3a,4-dihydroisoindol inium salts their isomeric
forms - 2,2-dialkyl-5-methyl-2,6,7,7a-tetrahydro-1H-isoind olium
bromides are obtained. In alkaline medium they are transform into the
dihydroisoindolinium salts, the cleavage of which in two directions -
1,2 and 1,6 leads to the mixture of isomeric dialkyl-1,4-dimethyl-
and 2,4-dimethylbenzyl-amines," wrote E.H. Chukhajian and colleagues
(see also Heterocyclic Chemistry).
The researchers concluded: "Study of the behavior of
2,2-dialkyl-5-methylisoindolinium salts under conditions of water-base
cleavage showed, that only spiro[5-methylisoindolyn]morpholinium
bromide undergoes 1,2-elimination, forming 5-methylisoindoline 2-vinyl
ethyl ester."
Chukhajian and colleagues published their study in
the Journal of Heterocyclic Chemistry (Cyclization of
dialkylpropyn-1-yl(Allyl)(3-isopropenylpropyn-2 -yl)ammonium
bromides and water-base cleavage of
2,2-dialkyl-5-methyl-2,6,7,7a-tetrahydro-1H-iso indolium and
2,2-dialkyl-5-methylisoindolinium bromides. Journal of Heterocyclic
