    Notes: The light of the sun can be used directly for changing chemical structures photochemically. Any industrial application must conform to the limitations imposed by the spectral distribution of the photons from the sun, the interruptions to the radiation due to the day/night rhythm, and the weather. In this review, we describe the photochemical potential of the sun, give a fundamental treatment of the concept of photoreactors driven by sunlight (abbreviated to solar photoreactors), and give an account of the realization of this concept in the first pilot plant on the “Plataforma Solar de Almeria” in southern Spain and in other activities in this field. Based on experimental data from photochemical investigations on the pilot plant scale, possibilities, limitations, and the potential growth of solar photochemistry are described. Solar photochemistry, in our opinion, is a technique which could make a contribution to the chemistry of the future because of its photochemical synthesis potential, the avoidance of waste products, and the direct utilization of the sun, not only as a primary energy source, but also as a reaction partner.

    Notes: Carbohydrates are inexpensive natural products in which numerous functional groups and stereogenic centers are combined in one molecule. By directed regio-and stereoselective formation of derivatives they can be converted into efficient chiral auxiliaries for controlling asymmetric syntheses. Stereoelectronic effects and pre-orientation of the reactive and shielding groups through formation of complexes can often be used for effective diastereofacial differentiation. In aldol reactions and alkylations on carbohydrate ester enolates intramolecular complexation promotes simultaneous elimination with formation of ketene. The steric, stereoelectronic, and coordinating properties of carbohydrate templates can also be used selectively to attain high levels of asymmetric induction in processes such as Diels-Alder reactions, hetero-Diels-Alder reactions, [2 + 2] cycloadditions, cyclopropanations, and Michael additions. It was possible with bicyclic, strongly stereodifferentiating carbohydrate auxiliaries to achieve a diastereoselective synthesis of carboxylic acid derivatives branched in the β position by a new 1,4-addition of alkylaluminum halides to α,β-unsaturated N-acylurethanes, in which methylaluminum halides and higher alkyl- or arylaluminum compounds behave mechanistically in a strikingly different manners. As complex ligands in chiral reagents and promoters, carbohydrates allow highly stereoselective reductions and aldol reactions that lead, amongst others, to chiral alcohols and β-hydroxy-α-amino acids in excellent enantiomeric excesses. Glycosylamines offer the possibility of versatile stereoselective applications: in the presence of Lewis acids the corresponding aldimines permit high-yielding syntheses of enantiomerically pure α-amino acids by Strecker and Ugi reactions, controlled by steric and stereoelectronic effects and by complex formation. They can be used with equal efficiency for asymmetric syntheses of chiral homoallylamines and for asymmetric Mannich syntheses of β-amino acids and chiral heterocycles, for example alkaloids.

    Notes: Today, the synthetic chemist has a large repertoire of metal activation methods at his disposal. After a first breakthrough was made at the beginning of the seventies with the introduction of the Rieke metals, a series of further, in part more efficient methods were describes, based on which not only classical metal-induced reactions could be substantially improved but also completely new reactions could be discovered. In this article the individual activation methods are discussed and compared as far as is possible using the currently available data. Especially noteworthy are the metal-graphite combinations because of their unsurpassed reactivity and concomitant easy preparation and manipulation. As shown by numerous applications of these reagents on polyfunctional substrates, particularly natural products, high reactivity of the metal and excellent selectivity are by no means precluded. Besides the purely preparative aspects also insights gained so far into the general principles and limits of metal activation are outlined, and attempts at determining the morphology of highly dispersed systems are reported.

    Notes: The one-pot intramolecular double Michael reaction of compounds having two different α, β-unsaturated carbonyl groups to form polycyclic compounds can be carried out by three different methods: in the first the substrate is treated with lithium hexamethyldisilazide, in the second with chlorotrimethylsilane, triethylamine, and zinc chloride at an elevated temperature, and in the third with tert-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate and triethylamine. The reaction proceeds with complete regioselectivity and high stereoselectivity following a stepwise mechanism. Spiro-fused bicyclo[2.2.2]octane derivatives can be constructed with high stereoselectivity by the intromolecular double Michael reaction by using the first method. Enantiomerically pure atisine and the enantiomer of atisirene were synthesized stereoselectively by application of this methodology. The syntheses of steroids and angular triquinane-type sesquiterpenoids were possible with the second method. Heterocyclic compounds with a bridgehead nitrogen atom were obtained by the reaction of α, β-unsaturated amides following the second and third methods. The asymmetric synthesis of tylophorine with diastereofacial control was achieved by the intramolecular reaction according to the third method. The sulfur-mediated intramolecular double Michael reaction utilizing the third method produced trans-hydroindane derivatives. Furthermore, the intramolecular Michael-aldol reaction can be employed in synthesizing polycyclic systems with cyclobutane units by treatment with tert-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate in the presence of triethylamine. The intermolecular double Michael reaction and related reactions will also be described.

    Notes: The oriental plant Yuzuriha (Daphniphyllum macropodum) elaborates a fascinating family of polycyclic, squalene-derived alkaloids that provide a test for state-of-the-art methods of organic synthesis. The intriguing structures of these natural products have inspired us to design and explore two rather different approaches for their laboratory synthesis. This article recounts and contrasts these two different syntheses. The first approach was based on a method of synthetic design that emphasizes efficient construction of the polycyclic skeleton of the molecule (Corey's “network analysis”). A strategic bond was identified and the synthesis planned around the late formation of this bond. The synthesis that was designed by this approach proceeded smoothly until the point where it was necessary to remove functional groups that had been incorporated solely for the purpose of forming the strategic bond. Although the problems were eventually overcome, the resulting synthesis was too long and did not control the configuration of one of the stereocenters. The second approach was based on a possible biosynthesis of one of the alkaloids and provided surprisingly easy access to the simpler members of the family. The success of this synthesis led to a concrete proposal about the biosynthesis of the alkaloids and to the discovery of the astonishing transformation depicted in Scheme 27. In this marvelous reaction, an acyclic squalene derivative is converted by successive treatment with ordinary commodity chemicals into a pentacyclic alkaloid. The transformation involves the formation of four carbon-carbon bonds, two carbon-nitrogen bonds, and one carbon-hydrogen bond!

    Notes: Nucleophilic addition of organometallic reagents to carbonyl substrates constitutes one of the most fundamental operations in organic synthesis. Modification of the organometallic compounds by chiral, nonracemic auxiliaries offers a general opportunity to create optically active alcohols, and the catalytic version in particular provides maximum synthetic efficiency. The use of organozinc chemistry, unlike conventional organolithium or -magnesium chemistry, has realized an ideal catalytic enantioselective alkylation of aldehydes leading to a diverse array of secondary alcohols of high optical purity. A combination of dialkylzinc compounds and certain sterically constrained β-dialkylamino alcohols, such as (-)-3-exo-dimethylaminoiso- borneol [(-)-DAIB], as chiral inducers affords the best result (up to 99% ee). The alkyl transfer reaction occurs via a dinuclear Zn complex containing a chiral amino alkoxide, an aldehyde ligand, and three alkyl groups. The chiral multiplication method exhibits enormous chiral amplification: a high level of enantioselection (up to 98%) is attainable by use of DAIB in 14% ee. This unusual nonlinear effect is a result of a marked difference in chemical properties of the diastereomeric (homochiral and heterochiral) dinuclear complexes formed from the dialkylzinc and the DAIB auxiliary. This phenomenon may be the beginning of a new generation of enantioselective organic reactions.

    Notes: The recent upswing in peptide chemistry has been accompanied by an increasing interest in nonproteinogenic amino acids. These include the α,α-disubstituted glycines, the best known of which is Aib (2-aminoisobutyric acid, 2-methylalanine). These α-amino acids occur in natural oligopeptides such as the peptaibols, a class of membrane-active ionophores that has been isolated from fungal cultures. The twofold substitution at the α-C atom of the amino acids severely restricts the conformational freedom of the peptides and causes particular secondary structures to be favored; thus, α, α-disubstituted α-amino acids induce the formation of β turns or helices. 3-Amino-2H-azirines are ideal synthons for the construction of oligopeptides, cyclic peptides and depsipeptides (peptolides) containing such α,α-disubstituted α-amino acids. The presence of the ring strain in these molecules means that they can be used in peptide coupling without the need for additional activating reagents. Using 3-amino-2H-azirines a large array of heterocycles containing α, α-disubstituted α-amino acids as structural elements within their skeleton can be synthesized. The driving force in these reactions is the release of the strain on the three-membered ring, which usually takes place in a ring-expansion reaction. The mechanistic elucidation of these reactions, which can be quite complex, contains some surprises.

    Notes: Until recently the isocyanide-cyanide rearrangement was of interest almost solely as an example of a unimolecular gas-phase reaction, and kinetic studies had been carried out in only a few simple cases. Kinetic measurements in solution were made possible only by the discovery and suppression of a parallel free-radical chain process which leads to the same products. The rate of the isomerization is almost independent of the structure of the starting material and of the substituents present. An exception is provided by extreme steric hindrance in three dimensions which, as in tris-α-substituted triptycyl isocyanides, leads to a considerable increase in the activation energy. The results can be interpreted in terms of a purely sigmatropic mechanism, as predicted by ab initio calculations. The preparative application of this rearrangement reaction requires the suppression of side reactions and can best be carried out by flash pyrolysis; yields are then almost quantitative. Allyl isocyanides react without allyl isomerization, optically active isocyanides with complete retention of configuration. New, economically interesting syntheses for the known nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ibuprofen and (S)-naproxene are described. The application of the useful synthetic building blocks, the optically active β-acyloxy cyanides, which are formed from optically active α-amino acids, will be demonstrated.

    Notes: Novel, biologically active substances from nature often provide excitement, stimulation, challenges, and opportunities for the scientific and medical communities. Experience and wisdom dictate investigation of their chemistry and pursuit of their chemical synthesis for more often than not, the rewards for both chemistry and medicine are great. The enediyne anticancer antibiotics are a rapidly emerging class of such compounds derived from bacterial sources. Combining unprecedented and highly unusual molecular architecture, phenomenal biological activities and fascinating modes of action, these DNA cleaving compounds burst onto the scene in the latter half of the 1980s when their structures became known, and they rapidly moved to center stage. Today the enediyne family includes the neocarzinostatin chromophore, the calicheamicins, the esperamicins, and the dynemicins, and soon the number of family members is certain to increase. These molecules elicited extensive research activities in chemical, biological, and biomedical circles and inspired the design of a number of novel molecular assemblies to probe and mimic their chemical and biological actions. A new body of synthetic technology and several novel synthetic strategies have already been devised to address the challenges posed by these molecules, and several new DNA cleaving agents have been designed and synthesized. This article summarizes the chemistry and biology of the enediynes and discusses mechanistic, synthetic, molecular design, and DNA cleavage aspects associated with the field.

    Notes: α-Amino acids protected at nitrogen in quite different ways can be transformed without racemization into the corresponding α-amino aldehydes. Provided one chooses the right protecting groups (e.g., two benzyl residues on nitrogen) it is possible for the first time to carry out Grignard-like, aldol, and Me3SiCN additions, and hetero-Diels-Alder reactions with a high degree of nonchelation control. If the reactions of classical carbanions turn out to be nonselective, transmetalation, for example into organotitanium reagents, constitutes an important tool in controlling stereoselectivity. Diastereoselectivity can be reversed by specific variation of the protecting group and reagent. “Protecting-group tuning”, “metal tuning”, and “ligand tuning” are very useful in reactions of α-amino aldimines as well. The α-amino aldehydes can also be converted by Wittig reactions into electron-poor γ-amino olefins, which in turn undergo stereoselective cuprate, Michael, and cycloadditions.

    Notes: In 1969, P. L. Timms reported the first preparative cocondensation reactions of metal vapors with organic and inorganic substrates. The use of this technique in preparative chemistry soon spread rapidly, but in recent years there has been less activity in this sector. If metal atom reactions are not utilized primarily for the formation of new products, but for the synthesis of highly reactive intermediates, a new synthetic strategy may be developed. Our aims are reaction sequences which, based on an effective cocondensation reaction, lead gradually and selectively to new substance classes. This principle can be illustrated by the example of the cocondensation products of arenes and iron, cobalt, or nickel vapor, which decompose between -70 and -50°C. The classes of products accessible by this method extend from clusters, through π-complexes, organophosphorus and organoboron cage compounds to pure organic cycloaddition products.

    Notes: The preparation and utilization of specific biaryl systems, particularly those which suffer hindered rotation, is a demanding goal not only in the synthesis of natural products and Pharmaceuticals, but also for example in the discovery of new reagents for asymmetric synthesis. This article will attempt to provide a topical review of modern, efficient processes for the specific preparation of biaryls. This appears to be of particular urgency, since, under the pressure of continually increasing demand, a wealth of new or modified synthetic approaches to the ever more important biaryl systems has been realized in recent years. The high standard which has been reached in this field is impressively demonstrated by regio- and stereoselective syntheses of important biaryl natural products such as steganone, ancistrocladine, ancistrocladisine, and dioncophylline A. Besides the utilization of asymmetric induction in the actual coupling step, the thermodynamically or kinetically controlled torsion of biaryl axes belongs to the most important concepts discussed.

    Notes: Convergency is a highly serviceable aspect of organic synthesis, particularly when its application is accompanied by high levels of chirality transfer and regiocontrol. A reaction that is notably well suited to these objectives is the oxy-Cope rearrangement. In addition, the benefits that can accrue from suitable condensation of β γ-unsaturated ketones with a vinyl organometallic and subsequent [3,3] sigmatropic shift are substantive enhancement in structural complexity and the ability to generate a myriad of polycyclic frameworks. Another profitable feature is the complementary regeneration of the carbonyl group in a new structural context. In view of the pivotal role played by the carbonyl functionality in synthetic transformations, reacquisition of such a reaction site translates into heightened chemical versatility. The trajectories followed by vinyl organometallics as they engage in 1,2 addition to ketones are gradually being understood. Proper diastereoselective control of this bond-making process, when coupled with full awareness of the chair or boat topography adopted during the ensuing oxy-Cope electronic reorganization, provides for exciting new strategy-level dimensions not often available in other contexts. The use of this two-step sequence as a prelude to a third chemical event clearly serves to expand the possibilities for molecular construction still more. While a considerable amount of the work to date has focused on the preparation of rather elaborate carbocyclic molecules, principally with a view to gaining access to complex natural products, the possibilities for heterocyclic synthesis are currently being accorded increased attention.

    Notes: This review article is an attempt to sketch the important developments in organic synthesis during the past 25 years, and to project them into the future. - The primary motivations that once induced chemists to undertake natural product syntheses no longer exist. Instead of target structures themselves, molecular function and activity now occupy center stage. Thus, inhibitors with an affinity for all the important natural enzymes and receptors have moved to the fore as potential synthetic targets. - New synthetic methods are most likely to be encountered in the fields of biological and organometallic chemistry. Enzymes, whole organisms, and cell cultures for enan-tioselective synthesis of specific substances have already been incorporated into the synthetic arsenals of both research laboratories and industry. In addition, designing appropriate analogues to transition states and intermediates should soon make it possible, with the aid of the mammalian immune system and gene technology, to prepare catalytically active monoclonal antibodies for almost any reaction; perhaps, more important, such processes will increasingly come to be applied on an industrial scale.-The discovery of truly new reactions is likely to be limited to the realm of transition-metal organic chemistry, which will almost certainly provide us with additional “miracle reagents” in the years to come. As regards main group elements (“organoelemental chemistry”), we can surely anticipate further stepwise improvements in experimental procedures and the broader application of special techniques, leading to undreamed of efficiency and selectivity with respect to known procedures. The primary center of attention for all synthetic methods will continue to shift toward catalytic and enantioselective variants; indeed, it will not be long before such modifications will be available with every standard reaction for converting achiral educts into chiral products. Analysis, spectroscopy, structure determination, theory, and electronic data processing have all become indispensable in organic synthesis. Only with the aid of these “tools” will the methods of organic chemistry permit selective syntheses of ever larger and more complex systems on both the molecular and supramolecular levels. - Examples have been introduced throughout this discourse to illustrate its many themes, and a very comprehensive bibliography should help the interested reader become more familiar with important keywords and authors.[The list of references is also available upon request in the form of a Microsoft Word© file on diskette.] - This article will have served its intended purpose if it changes the minds of some of those who claim organic chemistry is a mature science, and if it causes students to discover the vitality and forcefulness with which organic synthesis is meeting new challenges and attempting to fulfill old dreams.Er zeigt uns so in seinem wissenschaftlichen Leben, daß die Chemie nicht von einer Theorie, nicht von einer Methode aus zu erschöpfen ist, und daß Erkenntnis und Nutzen in ihr untrennbar verwoben sind.“He showed us through his scientific life that chemistry cannot be exploited fully with the aid of a single theory or a single methodology, and that it is a field in which knowledge and application are inextricably linked.” G.

    Notes: It is shown that carbonyl olefination, i.e. the reaction of carbonyl compounds with alkylidene phosphoranes, can be sterically controlled. In some cases cis-olefins can be obtained by proper choice of the reaction conditions; trans-olefins are formed only in the presence of suitable structural factors. These cis-and trans-olefination reactions have opened new, stereo-specific routes to unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids with differing positions and sequences of cis- and trans-double bonds and to ω-hydroxy and branched chain fatty acids.

    Notes: Condensation of nitromethane with suitable diadehydes in alkaline medium provides a general method of cyclization, in which the methyl group of the nitromethane is incorporated into the ring. This method leads to 5-, 6-, and 7-membered rings and is equally applicable to aliphatic, aromatic, and sugar dialdehydes. For example, glyoxal is converted into 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-dinitro-neo-inositol, and glutaraldehyde into trans-2-nitrocyclohexane-1,3-diol, while the corresponding cyclization of xylo-trihydroxyglutaraldehyde leads to deoxy-nitroinositols having the scyllo, myo-1, and muco-3 configurations.-In the case of aromatic dialdehydes, the cyclization is accompanied by elimination of water. Thus, phthalaldehyde, naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde, and homophthalaldehyde yield, respectively, 2-nitroindenol, 2-nitrobenzindenol, and 2-nitronaphthalene. -Application of the method to sugar dialdehydes (aldehydic diglycol derivatives of monosaccharides formed by periodate oxidation) constitutes an excellent synthesis of 3-amino sugars, since 3-deoxy-3-nitropyranoses are formed smoothly on cyclization, and the corresponding 3-amino derivatives are obtained by hydrogenation. Thus, the reaction sequence: periodate oxidation → cyclization with nitromethane → hydrogenation, leads in the case of α-and β-D-pentosides to 3-amino-3-deoxy-D-and-L-pentosides, respectively, with ribo, xylo, and arabino configurations. α-D-hexosides give derivatives with gluco, manno, and galacto configurations. 3-Amino-3,6-dideoxyglucosides of the D-and L-series are obtained from 6-deoxy-D-or-L-hexosides, respectively, and 3-aminohexosans with gulo, ido, and altro configurations are obtained from 1,6-anhydro sugars. Cyclization of the dialdehydes obtained from sedoheptulose and methyl 4,6-O-ethylidene-α-D-glucoside by periodate oxidation, leads to 3-nitro and, after hydrogenation, to 3-amino derivatives of 3-deoxyheptopyranoses.

    Notes: This review discusses syntheses leading to a new type of N-vinylpyridinium salts, to novel anionocyanines, to aminophenazines and alloxazines, as well as to (aza-) dehydroquinolizinium, acridizinium, and morphanthridizinium salts. In addition, Mannich reactions and aminoalkylations at active methylene groups of cycloimmonium salts, and their reactions with amines are treated. The possibilities offered by the “Ortoleva-King” reaction are demonstrated using numerous examples, such as a new route leading to the yohimbine skeleton.

    Notes: The preparation and properties of s-triazine are discussed. Nucleophilic reagents (even water) readily attack s-triazine. Thus, open-chain and heterocyclic compounds, e.g. formamidines, aminomethylene compounds, and triazole, pyridine, and pyrimidine deravatives are accessible from s-triazine. With amidines and imido ethers substituted triazines are obtained (by trans-triazination).The latter are formed via open-chain intermediates.

    Notes: Cleavage of N-phenylpyridinium or N-vinylpyridinium salts with secondary aliphatic amines leads to aromatic amino compounds or enamines which are often unobtainable by other routes. The other fragment, glutacondialdehyde or its monoanil, gives azulenes, as shown by Ziegler and Hafner, as well as König; these compounds can also be prepared from alkylpyridinium salts with cyclopentadienylsodium (Hafner). Syntheses of labile aldehydes which are otherwise difficult to obtain and of α-ketocarboxylic acids, starting from pyridinium salts and proceeding via nitrones or α-cyanoanils, are illustrated by many new examples. Benzimidazoles, benzothiazoles, and amidines are accessible from pyridinium salts via nitrones or α-cyanoanils; cyanoanils can be transformed into quinoxalines (including xanthopterine), perimidines, etc. Furthermore, nitrosonaphthols and nitrosonaphthylamines react with pyridinium salts containing an active methylene group on the nitrogen, leading to new ring systems. Further synthetic possibilities arise from nucleophilic displacements of the pyridine in pyridinium salts by SN 2 reactions. Combination of the route via nitrones with the methods of Arndt-Eistert, Ortoleva-King, or with chloromethylation constitutes a significant enlargement of its range of application. The formation of α-cyanoanils from diazoketones permits synthesis of α-keto-β-amino acids from α-amino acids, or of phenylglyoxylic acids from benzoic acids by chain extension.

    Notes: The α-addition of immonium ions and anions (OH-, SeH-, S2O3 2-, N3- NCO- NCS-, R—CO2 -, RO—CO2-) to isonitriles, accompanied by secondary reactions provides a means for the one-stage synthesis of organic nitrogen compounds starting with two to five different components. Thus, by the condensations of amines (ammonia, primary, and secondary aliphatic and aromatic amines, hydrazines) and aldehydes or ketones with isonitriles and acids, a number of α-aminocarboxylic acid amides, thioamides, selenoamides, 1,5-disubstituted retrazoles, hydantoin imides, thiohydantoin imides, α-acylamino carboxylic acid amides, oligopeptide derivatives, β-lactams, derivatives of penicillanic acid, urethanes, diacylimides, and various hydrazine derivatives, can be prepared. The reactions are easily carried out and take place under mild conditions. Yields of more than 90% are frequently encountered.

    Notes: By Michael addition of the active methylene groups in pyridinium salts onto suitable acceptor compounds, α-pyridones, substituted pyridines, particularly pyridinecarboxylic acids and pyridylpyridines, including the minor alkaloid of tobacco nicotelline and annelized pyridines, can be prepared by a simple procedure and generally in good yields. From the Michael adducts, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g. substituted fluoranthenes and “bisfluoranthenes” can be prepared; internal Michael addition leads to pyrrolinopyrdinium salts. For example, Michael addition of pyridinium salts onto quinones gives phenacyl substituted quinones, from which benzofurans and cinnolines can be readily obtained.
