SYNTHESIS AND STEREOCHEMISTRY OF DIOXA-1,4-DIAZADISPIRO[5.2.5.2]TETRADEC-1-EN-3-ONE AND ITS 2H-IMIDAZOLO-2-SPIROCYCLOHEXANE ANALOG - AN ANOMALOUS MICHAEL-TYPE CYCLOCONDENSATION
Y. Langlois et al., SYNTHESIS AND STEREOCHEMISTRY OF DIOXA-1,4-DIAZADISPIRO[5.2.5.2]TETRADEC-1-EN-3-ONE AND ITS 2H-IMIDAZOLO-2-SPIROCYCLOHEXANE ANALOG - AN ANOMALOUS MICHAEL-TYPE CYCLOCONDENSATION, Heterocycles, 42(2), 1996, pp. 737-743
Starting from 1,4-cyclohexanedione monoethylene ketal and methyl propi
olate in ammonia-saturated methanol at 100 degrees C we obtained 2-met
hyl-4H-9,12-dioxa-1, 4-diazadispiro [5.2.5.2]tetradec-1-en-3-one which
was subsequently transformed into its O-methyl ether - a 2H-imidazolo
-2-spirocyclohexane derivative. The mechanism of formation of this new
heterocyclic system by anomalous Michael type cyclocondensation was p
roposed.
