Hydrolysis of methyl 6-chloro-6-deoxy-2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-α-D-glucopyranoside (19b) and Swern oxidation of the resulting anomeric hemiacetals (20) gave 6-chloro-6-deoxy-2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-D-glucono-1,5-lactone (21), treatment of which with 1,2-bis( trimethylsilyloxy )ethane in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate gave 6-chloro-1,6-dideoxy-1,1-ethylenedioxy-2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-D-glucopyranose (23a). Conversion of (23a) into the corresponding 6-iodo compound (23b) and treatment of this with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene afforded the enolic ortho ester 1,6-dideoxy-1,1-ethylenedioxy-2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-D-xylo-hex-5-enopyranose (26). Reaction of (26) with methylmagnesium iodide, or with titanium tetrachloride, gave (1R,6S,7R,8R,9S)-7,8,9-trimethoxy-6-methyl-2,5-dioxabicyclo[4.3.1]decan-1-ol (34), or (2S,3R,4R)-5,5-ethylenedioxy-2,3,4-trimethoxycyclohexanone (28), respectively.

The known aldehyde methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-α-D-gluco-hexodialdo-1,5-pyranoside (9) was converted in eight steps into the 6-phenyl glucose-derived enolic ortho ester (Z)-1,6-dideoxy-1,1-ethylenedioxy- 2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-6-phenyl-D-xylo-hex-5-enopyranose (22), the geometry of which was established by a single-crystal X-ray study. Treatment of the 6-phenyl enolic ortho ester (22) with titanium tetrachloride at –78° effected clean rearrangement into (2R/S,4R,5R,6S)-3,3-ethylenedioxy-4,5,6-trimethoxy-2-phenylcyclohexanone (26). Reaction of (22) with methylmagnesium iodide gave (1R,2S,4R,5S,6S)-3,3-ethylenedioxy-4,5,6-trimethoxy-1-methyl-2-phenylcyclohexanol (24), the structure and stereochemistry of which were established by an X-ray study. Reaction of (22) with phenylmagnesium bromide gave (25), the 1-phenyl analogue of (24). The firmly established structure of (24) led to proof both chemically and by X-ray means that the product from reaction of 1,6-dideoxy-1,1-ethylenedioxy-2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-D-xylo-hex-5-enopyranose (5) with methylmagnesium iodide has the hydroxy acetal structure (7) rather than the originally assigned hemiacetal structure (3).

3-Aryl-2,4,10-trioxaadamantane ortho esters (T) undergo a rapid equilibration with a ring-opened dioxan-2-ylium ion (DH+) prior to hydrolysis to product (a 1,3,5-cyclohexanetriol monobenzoate). The cation is stable in concentrated H2SO4 solutions where it has been characterized by nmr spectroscopy. It is observed using uv spectroscopy in dilute acids, and the ratio [DH+]/[T] at equilibrium has been measured as a function of acidity. Reversibility of the ring opening is established by the pattern of plots of cation absorbance versus acid concentration and by the observation that solutions containing cation on neutralization or dilution yield ortho ester, not hydrolysis product. Equilibrium constants for the reaction [Formula: see text] have been measured by obtaining the acidity function HT for this system. The effects of the aromatic substituent and the steepness of the acidity function plot versus acid concentration are interpreted in terms of a strong intramolecular interaction in the cation between the cationic center and the hydroxyl oxygen.

Phenolic ortho esters such as 4′,4′-dimethylspiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2′-[1,3]dioxolan] (7b) and 4′,4′-dimethyl-3,4-dihydrospiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2′-[1,3]dioxolan] (9c) were prepared in low yields by reaction of 2H-1-benzopyran-2-one (5) or 3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one (8a) with 2,2-dimethyloxiran in carbon tetrachloride in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate. 3,4-Dihydrospiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2′-[1,3] dioxoan ] (9a) and the corresponding 7-methoxy compound (9e) were obtained in high yield by reaction of (8a) or its 7-methoxy analogue (8b) with 1,2-bis(trimethylsily1oxy)ethane (10) in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethane-sulfonate . Birch reduction of phenolic ortho esters such as (9c) and (9e) afforded the enolic ortho esters 4′,4′-dimethyl-3,4,5,8-tetrahydrospiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2′-[1,3] dioxola n] (11a) and 7-methoxy-3,4,5,8-tetrahydrospiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2′-[1,3]dioxolan] (llc) in high yields. Birch reduction of 4′,4′,5′,5′-tetramethylspiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2′-[1,3]dioxolan] (7c) gave a 1 : 3 mixture of 4′,4′,5′,5′-tetramethyl-3,4-dihydrospiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2′-[l,3] dioxolan ] (9d) and the corresponding 3,4,5,8-tetrahydro compound (11b). Acid hydrolysis of the enolic ortho ester (11a) gave 67% of 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropyl 3-(2-oxocyclohex-3-enyl) propanoate (20).

A detailed kinetic study of the hydrolysis of a series of 3-aryl-2,4,10-trioxaadamantanes is reported. These ortho esters equilibrate with the ring-opened dialkoxycarbocation, in a very rapid process which could be studied using temperature-jump spectroscopy for aryl = 2,4-dimethylphenyl. Relaxation rate constants are of the order of 104 s−1; these could be analyzed to provide the rate constants for both the ring opening and the ring closing. Product formation from this equilibrating mixture is much slower. In acid solutions (0.01 M H+ −50% H2SO4), first-order rate constants for product formation initially increase with increasing acidity, but a maximum is reached at 20–35% H2SO4 and the rate then falls. This behavior is explained by a counterbalancing of two factors. Increasing acidity increases the amount of the dialkoxycarbocation in the initial equilibrium, but, outside the pH region, it decreases the rate of hydrolysis of this cation through a medium effect. Rate constants over a range of pH have been measured for two trioxaadamantanes and for the cation DEt+ derived by treatment of the ortho ester with triethyloxonium tetraafluoroborate. The latter models the cation formed in the ortho ester hydrolysis but it cannot ring close. Rate–pH profiles obtained in these systems are more complex than expected on the basis of rate-determining cation hydration. An interpretation is proposed with a change in rate-determining step between high pH and low pH. Cation hydration is rate determining at high pH but at low pH hemiorthoester decomposition becomes rate determining. Under these conditions the hemiorthoester equilibrates with both the dialkoxycarbocation and with the trioxaadamantane. The change in rate-determining step occurs because acid-catalyzed reversion of the hemiorthoester to dialkoxycarbocation is a faster process than acid-catalyzed hemiorthoester decomposition. This makes the latter rate-determining in acid solutions. Additional pathways available to the decomposition, however, make it the faster process at higher pH. A kinetic analysis furnishes all of the rate and equilibrium constants for the system, and provides support for the mechanistic interpretation. A comparison of these numbers with those obtained for the three stages in the hydrolysis of a simple monocyclic ortho ester underlines the novelty of the trioxaadamantane system.

17β-t-Butyldimethylsilyloxy-3-methoxy-6-oxaestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-7-one (1), prepared in three steps from 17b-hydroxy-3-methoxy-6-oxaestra-1,3,5(10),8-tetraen-7-one (5a), was converted via the corresponding phenolic acid into 1β-t-butyldimethylsilyloxy-5β-(2′-t-butyldimethylsilyloxy-4′-methoxyphenyl)-N,7aβ-dimethyl-N-phenyl-2,3,3aα,4,5,6,7,7a-octahydro-1H-indene-4α-carboxamide (17c). Subjection of (17c) to a reaction sequence with methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, sodium methoxide/methanol, and then dry methanol/acetic acid gave a low yield (12%) of the ortho ester 3,7,7,17β-tetramethoxy- 6-oxaestra-1,3,5(10)-triene (2b), together with 5β-(2′-hydroxy-4′-methoxyphenyl)-1β-methoxy-N,7aβ-dimethyl-N-phenyl-2,3,3aα,4,5,6,7,7a-octahydro-1H-indene-4α-carboxamide (17e) (29%), 8% of (17a), the 1β-hydroxy analogue of (17e) and 3% of methyl 5-(2′-hydroxy-4′-methoxyphenyl)-1β-methoxy-7aβ-methyl-2,3,3aα,4,5,6,7,7a-octahydro-1H-indene-4α-carboxylate (11c). The outcome of this reaction sequence was complex, and very sensitive to minor changes in conditions. Several related transformations are described, and possible mechanistic pathways are discussed.
