A domino process consisting of an inverse and a normal electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction is presented for the formation of bridged tri- and tetracyclic 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalenes catalyzed by a bidentate Lewis acid. The products were synthesized in a one-pot reaction from commercially available starting materials and contain up to six stereogenic centers. The tetrahydronaphthalenes were isolated as single diastereomers and are derivatives of phenylethylamine, which is well-known as a scaffold of amphetamine or dopamine.

Bidentate Lewis Acid Catalyzed Domino Diels-Alder Reaction of Phthalazine for the Synthesis of Bridged Oligocyclic Tetrahydronaphthalenes.

K2Hg6Se7, Na2Hg3S2.51Se1.49, K2Hg3S1.03Se2.97, and K2Hg3S2.69Se1.31 were prepared by ionothermal treatment of K2Hg2Se3, Na2HgSe2, and K2Hg3Se4, respectively, in a nonclassical hydrosulfide ionic liquid (EMIm)(SH). In contrast to their lighter congeners, the title compounds could so far not be synthesized by inorganic polychalcogenide salt flux techniques. The applied method hence mimics polychalcogenide flux conditions, while operating at much lower temperatures below the decomposition temperature of the ionic liquid. It might thus be viewed as a pseudo-flux approach.

Mercurates from a Revised Ionothermal Synthesis Route: The Pseudo-Flux Approach.

Compounds consisting of [M(1,2-disila-[3n]crown-n)](2+) (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba; n = 5, 6) and [Ba(1,2-disila-benzo[18]crown-6)](2+) cations and different anions were obtained by equimolar reaction of the hybrid disila-crown ethers 1,2-disila[15]crown-5 (1), 1,2-disila[18]crown-6 (2) and 1,2-disila-benzo[18]crown-6 (7) with alkaline earth metal salts. Even with strongly coordinating anions such as Br(-) or I(-) stable complexes could be obtained, showing the good coordination ability of these ligands. The structures of all coordination compounds were determined via single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). By means of DFT calculations, the complexation ability of 1,2-disila[15]crown-5 (1) towards magnesium bromide was determined to be considerably higher compared to [15]crown-5. The opposite case was observed in solution as the exchange of calcium cations between [18]crown-6 and 1,2-disila[18]crown-6 (2) was studied via dynamic proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
