Summary: | <jats:p> The cycloaddition reaction of 7-substituted 5H-benzocycloheptenes with singlet oxygen and the chemistry of the obtained endoperoxides were investigated. Reaction of carboethoxy-substituted endoperoxide with NEt<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> gave a mixture of products; hydroxyketone, diketone, and carboethoxy-substituted ketoenol tautomers, whereas the reaction of methyl-substituted endoperoxide only formed a diketone under the same reaction conditions. Thermolysis, thiourea, and CoTPP reactions of the endoperoxides were also studied. The reaction mechanism and electronic effect of substituents were discussed.Key words: benzocycloheptene, photooxygenation, endoperoxides, rearrangement, CoTPP. </jats:p> |
