RESUMEN
Multiple chemical modifications were carried out on D-glucose to result in the corresponding Schiff bases. Such modifications performed on D-glucose not only helped in increasing the solubility of the products in nonaqueous solvents, but also restricted the anomerisation of the saccharide moiety in solution. NMR study of the products revealed the presence of the beta-anomeric form of the saccharide moiety in Me(2)SO solution. All the compounds were characterised by analytical and spectral methods. The literature is devoid of any crystal structures of saccharide-Schiff base combinations of the type reported in this paper. The crystal structures of these molecules exhibited a tridentate, ONO binding core. These studies further revealed that the compounds in the solid state were in the beta-D-pyranose form with the (4)C(1) chair conformation. The compounds exhibited interesting lattice structures assisted through weak interactions of the type O-H...O and C-H...O. The lattice structure of one of these compounds exhibited channels filled with chloroform molecules.

A cascade of cyclization/cycloaddition reactions was triggered by addition of protic oxygen nucleophiles ROH 2 (RO = CH3CO2, PhCO2, PhO) to [2-(1-cyclohexenyl)ethynyl]carbene complexes 1b and 1c (M=W, Cr, respectively), affording highly strained "dimers" 11/11' and "trimers" 12 of the carbene ligand. The first reaction step involved the formation of 1-metalla1,3,5-hexatrienes 7, which readily gave tetrahydroindenes 8 by pi cyclization and extrusion of the metal unit. "Dimers" 11/11' were generated from tetrahydroindenes 8 by a highly exo selective [4+2] cycloaddition of compounds 1b and 1c to afford 1-metalla-1,3,5-hexatriene intermediates 9, and a spontaneous pi cyclization of the latter compounds involving the disengagement of the metal unit. Propenylidene cyclohexenes 13/13' were formed in "ene"-type side reactions to the pi cyclization of 1-metalla-1,3,5-hexatrienes 7, by loss of the metal unit. "Dimers" 11 were transformed into "trimers" 12 by a [4+2] cycloaddition and subsequent pi-cyclization of the resulting 1-metalla-1,3,5-hexatriene system. The course of the reaction was elucidated by means of model reactions with (2-phenylethynyl)carbene complex 14, in which 1-metalla-1,3,5-hexatriene intermediates 16 and 17 were isolated and characterized. Alkynyl benzene derivatives 19 were obtained by an unprecedented ring-expansion of a cyclopentadiene unit of "dimers" 11a and 11c, involving the insertion of a carbene carbon atom of compound 14 into a C=C bond. A reaction cascade leading to "dimers" 24/24' could also be triggered by treatment of compounds 2 with [2-(1-cycloheptenyl)ethynyl]carbene tungsten complex 1d.
RESUMEN
Reactions of NH-enaminones 2 with [2-(1-cycloalkenyl)ethynyl]carbene complexes 7 (M=W, Cr) gave tetrahydropentalenes, tetrahydroindenes, and hexahydroazulenes 8a-i, in which the NH-enaminone moiety is attached to the cyclopentadiene unit. The reaction involved formation of (3E)-1-metalla-1,3,5-hexatriene intermediates, which underwent pi cyclization faster than 3E/3Z isomerization. Tungsten complexes 12 and 13 were characterized as reaction intermediates. Compounds 8 are potentially bidentate ligands with respect to coordination both of the cyclopentadienyl and the enaminone moieties.
