Abstract
Reactions of 2-fluoro-3-methylbuta-1,3-diene with diazomethane in ether at 15 °C and with diazocyclopropane generated in situ by decomposition of N-cyclopropyl-N-nitrosourea in the presence of K2CO3 in CH2Cl2 at –10 °C selectively involve the double bond at the methyl group to give 3-(1-fluorovinyl)-3-methylpyrazolines. Thermal dediazotization of the latter at 250 °C yields 1-(1-fluorovinyl)-1-methylcyclopropane and -spiropentane 5, which are capable of isomerizing, under more severe conditions (400—600 °C), into 1-fluoro-2-methylcyclopent-1-ene and 5-fluoro-4-methylspiro[2.4]hept-4-ene (7), respectively. Spiropentane derivative 5 partially isomerizes into 1-fluoro-2-methyl-3-methylidenecyclohex-1-ene. In a similar way, thermolysis of 6-(2,3,3-trifluorocyclobut-1-enyl)-4,5-diazaspiro[2.4]hept-4-ene at 400 °C gives a mixture of 1-(spiropentyl)-2,3,3-trifluorocyclobut-1-ene and 2,3,3-trifluoro-1-(2-methylidenecyclobutyl)cyclobut-1-ene. Thermolysis of 1-cyclopropyl-2,3,3-trifluorocyclobut-1-ene at 550—620 °C affords a mixture of 1-(trifluorovinyl)cyclopentene and 2,3-difluorotoluene.
