Darstellung und Eigenschaften von 1-lsochroman-und 1-lsothiochromancarbaldehyd (9, 5) sowie ihrer in l-Stellung alkylierten Derivate 14 werden beschrieben. Charakteristische Umsetzungen sind die Uberfuhrung in das Cyanhydrin 21 und dessen Verseifung zur (I-Isothiochroman-y1iden)essigsaure (24), die Kondensation mit sekundaren Aminen zu Enaminen 17, die Uberfiihrung in Acetale 18, 19 und 20 sowie Wittig-Reaktionen zu 35, 36 und 37. Die Formylierung von Isothiochroman-Zoxid fiihrt zum 3-Benzothiepinderivat 30.
Studies in the Isochroman and Isothiochroman Series, XXIII'). -Formylation of Isochroman,
Isothiochroman, and Their DerivativesPreparation and properties of 1-isochroman-and 1-isothiochromancarbaldehyde (9,5) as well as of their derivatives 14 alkylated in 1-position are described. Typical reactions involve formation of cyanohydrins, e. g. 21, and saponification to give (1-isothiochromany1idene)acetic acid (24), for example, as well as condensation with secondary amines to yield enamines of type 17. Also transformations into the acetals 18, 19, 20, and Wittig reactions to 35, 36, and 37 have been achieved. Formylation of isothiochrornan 2-oxide led to formation of the 3-benzothiepin derivative 30.
