Ranunculin, a glucoside, serves as a chemotaxonomic marker in Ranunculaceae plants. When these plants are damaged, an enzyme β-glucosidase triggers the conversion of ranunculin into protoanemonin through hydrolysis. Subsequently, protoanemonin undergoes cyclodimerization to form anemonin.

An unprecedented oxidative cyclodimerization reaction of 2-azirine-2-carboxylates to pyrimidine-4,6-dicarboxylates under heating with triethylamine in air is described. In this reaction, one azirine molecule undergoes formal cleavage across the C-C bond and another across the C=N bond. According to the experimental study and DFT calculations, the key steps of the reaction mechanism include nucleophilic addition of ,-diethylhydroxylamine to an azirine to form an (aminooxy)aziridine, generation of an azomethine ylide, and its 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to the second azirine molecule.

Dimeric cyclization reactions show great potential to rapidly form highly substituted complex cyclic molecules from simple starting materials. However, such an appealing process is often hampered by the lack of selectivity. Herein we report two divergent cyclodimerization reactions of 1-styrylnaphthalen-2-ol derivatives under simple and very mild reaction conditions.

Complexity of imine and amine Schiff-base tin(II) complexes: drastic differences of amino and pyridyl side arms.

A series of homoleptic and heteroleptic imine and amine Schiff-base tin(II) complexes containing dimethylamino and pyridyl side arms were synthesized and structurally characterized. While the tin complexes containing the dimethylamino side arm could be prepared in good yield, unusual cyclodimerization and ligand dimerization were observed for the first time for Schiff-base tin complexes having a pyridyl side arm due to the added stabilization offered by the pyridyl ring. The amine Schiff-base tin(II) complexes were active for the ring-opening copolymerization of succinic anhydride (SA) and cyclohexene oxide (CHO) at 110 °C giving highly alternating poly(SA--CHO).
