description | <p>The thesis describes synthesis and reactions of allene azides tethered to various functional groups and the application of the discovered cascade transformations towards the synthesis of radianspene J model system.</p> <p>Chapter 1 covers reactions of simple allene azides containing alkyl and cycloalkyl substituents. Thermal rearrangements of these substrates delivered isocyanides and azadienes via the proposed azatrimethylenemethane (ATMM) intermediates.</p> <p>On the other hand, vinylidenecyclopropanes (VDCPs) gave dramatically different products, as described in Chapter 2. A phenyl-substituted VDCP was transformed into an unstable polycyclic compound by a divinylcyclopropane rearrangement. Chapter 3 discusses allene azides tethered to furan, N-substituted pyrroles, and E- and Z-dienes. Depending on the structure of the starting material, products of formal (3+4)- or (2+3)-cycloaddition were formed.</p> <p>Finally, an application of the discovered cyclisation cascade towards total synthesis is described in Chapter 4. A model system of radianspene J was assembled using a key transannular cycloaddition of a macrocyclic allene.</p> |
