Published: September 2004

The rule of infrared spectroscopic characteristics of the five alpha, alpha'-dioxoketene cyclic s, s-acetals was studied, and the influence of the molecular structure on the IR was indicated. All 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts of the five compounds were assigned, and the effects of structures on the chemical shifts of 1H and 13C NMR were discussed. The rule of change is the same as that of IR. The study offers a method of elicitation for studies on the structure and the spectroscopy of this kind of compounds.

Two benzo analogues of cytotoxic spiromamakone A, comprising carbon atoms with the same oxidation state and unsaturation degree as those of the natural products, are synthesized and biologically evaluated. Substitution of α,α'-dioxoketene dithioacetals, derived from 1,3-cyclopentanediones with protected (2-formylphenyl)magnesium bromide and 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene, followed by deprotection, generated these analogues via an intramolecular aldol reaction. The cytotoxicity of benzo analogues and synthetic intermediates against cervical carcinoma HeLa cells shows the necessity of the 4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione moiety for biological activity.

Thermal decomposition of the phenyliodonium ylide of lawsone gives rise to a highly reactive cyclic α,α'-dioxoketene, indanedioneketene, which reacts with electron-rich dienophiles such as enol ethers to afford [4 + 2] cycloadducts. The initially formed 2,3-dihydro-2-alkoxy-indeno[1,2-b]pyrano-4,5-diones are labile compounds since through an opening of the pyranone ring upon heating they easily tautomerize to alkoxyallylidene-indenedione derivatives and under acid-catalysis they are additionally transformed to 2-(1,3-dihydroxyallylidene)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione or by loss of alcohol to indeno[1,2-b]pyran-4,5-diones. A DFT study explains the polar nature of the cycloaddition reaction, the observed reactivity and suggests a possible mechanism operating in these reactions.

Dimerization of indanedioneketene to spiro-oxetanone: a theoretical study.

Indanedioneketene, a compound resulting from the thermal degradation of the phenyliodonium ylide of lawsone, dimerizes quantitatively to a spiro-oxetanone derivative, a key compound for further transformations. A theoretical electronic structure study of this unusual for alpha-oxoketenes [2 + 2] cyclization reaction both in the gas phase (DFT, MP2) and in dichloromethane solution (DFT), provides support for (a) a single-step, transition-state (involving a four-membered cyclic ring) charge-controlled, concerted mechanism and (b) a [4 + 2] cyclization reaction, not observed but studied theoretically in this study. A parallel study of an open-chain alpha,alpha'-dioxoketene dimerization explains the difference in the stability and reactivity observed experimentally between the cyclic and open-chain products.

[reaction: see text] Thermal decomposition of phenyliodonium ylide of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (lawsone) in the presence of indole derivatives affords 3-acylated indoles existing in their enol forms, through a ring contraction and alpha,alpha'-dioxoketene formation reaction. The same reactants afford 3-(3-indolyl)-2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones in a copper-catalyzed reaction. Enamines, among other C-nucleophiles tested, give analogous results.
