General description

1,3-Cycloheptadiene is a 1,3-cycloalkadiene. Isomerization of highly strained (E,E)-1,3-cycloheptadiene was investigated through double bond rotation, and electrocyclic ring closure. [1,5] Sigmatropic hydrogen shifts in 1,3-cyclohepatdiene were studied by density functional calculations.

Application

1,3-Cycloheptadiene was used in the preparation of enantiopure epoxy cycloheptenyl sulfones.

Density functional calculations have been carried out for [1,5] hydrogen shifts in 1,3-cycloalkadienes (cyclohexadiene, cycloheptadiene, and cyclooctadiene). The complexity of the potential surfaces of these reactions was found to increase with ring size. For 1,3-cyclohexadiene a single transition structure for

The highly strained (E,E)-1,3-cycloheptadiene was shown to be a minimum on the potential energy surface; two structural isomers were found at the MP2 level, but multiconfiguration self-consistent field calculations show that only one is a true minimum. The isomerization of

Enantiopure epoxy cycloheptenyl sulfones syn-7b and anti-7b are prepared in five high-yielding and stereospecific operations from 1, 3-cycloheptadiene. These substrates serve as effective precursors for cis- and trans-substituted tetrahydrofurans (12, 10) which are segments of the antineoplastic agent IKD-8344.
