Chloride Ion Catalyzed Conformational Inversion of Carbocation Intermediates in the Hydrolysis of a Benzo[a]pyrene 7,8-Diol 9,10-Epoxide

Abstract: A highly efficient procedure for converting 7beta,8alpha-dihydroxy-9alpha,10alpha-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (1) to its trans-9,10-chlorohydrin (5) with excellent yield and purity by the reaction of anhydrous HCl in THF has been developed. The rate of reaction of 5 has been determined as a function of sodium chloride concentration in 1:1 dioxane-water solutions. A large common ion rate depression for the reaction of the chlorohydrin was observed, and the rate data are fit to a mechanism in which a… Show more

“…From the observation that the reaction of trans chlorohydrin 8 shows a marked common ion rate depression upon reaction in solutions containing chloride ion, it was concluded that tetrol products from its hydrolysis also result from reaction of carbocation 5 with water . The observation that diol epoxide and trans -chlorohydrin hydrolyze to cis and trans tetrols in different ratios was rationalized by mechanisms in which each reacts via different distributions of two conformations of carbocation 5 , with an energy barrier separating the two conformations that is greater than the energy barrier for reaction of each carbocation conformation with solvent …”

“…However, a later study showed that both cis - and trans -chlorohydrins are formed from the reactions of aryl epoxides with this reagent, and in some cases where the aryl group greatly stabilizes charge at the benzylic position, cis -chlorohydrin may even be the major product . The reaction of DE - 2 with HCl in anhydrous THF, a reagent that might also be expected to form both cis - and trans -chlorohydrins, cleanly yields the trans -chlorohydrin 8 …”

“…Conformational factors affecting the stereochemistry of attack of solvent may be primarily responsible for these observations ( , ). Conformational factors also play important roles in determining the cis/trans tetrol ratios from acid-catalyzed hydrolyses of benzo[ a ]pyrene 7,8-diol 9,10-epoxides ( , ).…”
