Reactions of arenealdehyde 2-pyridylhydrazones (1) with thianthrene cation radical ($Th^{+·}$) and tris(2,4-dibromophenyl)aminium hexachloroantimonate ($Ar_3N^{+·}SbCl_6^-$) were investigated. The major product was switched depending on the cation radical being used. That is, s-triazolo[4,3-α]pyridines (2), an intramolecular cyclization product, and 1-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles (3), an intermolecular cycloaddition product, were obtained as a major product when reacted with $Th^{+·}$ and $Ar_3N^{+·}$, respectively in nitrile solvents. The plausible mechanisms are proposed based on both the reduction potentials of $Th^{+·}$ and $Ar_3N^{+·}$ and control experiments.

Synthesis of 4-substituted 3-exo-methylenechroman derivatives was carried out by the n-Bu3SnH-mediated vinyl radical cyclization as the key step starting from various salicylaldehydes.

Photolysis of 2-(pentamethyldisilanyloxy)phenylpentamethyldisilane 1 in methanol provides five photoproducts 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. Compounds 3 and 4 were probably formed from the methanol addition reactions of silene intermediate 2 and the formation of 5, 6, and 7 can best be explained by the nucleophilic attack of methanol to silicon atom in pentamethyldisilanyloxy or pentamethyldisilanyl group of the photoexcited state of 1. Irradiation of 1 in n-hexane gives a photoproduct 6 via silyl radical intermediate 8 and a novel intramolecular cyclization photoproduct 11 via silene 9 and silyl radical intermediate 10. Irradiation of 1 in deaerated methylene chloride in the presence of acetone affords a novel photoproduct 11 and phenol 7 but the expected photoproducts from the reaction of the silene intermediate with acetone were not obtained.

Studies have been conducted to explore single electron transfer (SET) induced photocyclization reactions of N-(trimethylsilylmethylthioalkyl)phthalimides (alkyl=ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, n-pentyl, and n-hexyl). Photocyclizations occur in methanol in modest to high yields to produce cyclized products in which phthalimide carbonyl carbon is bonded to the carbon of side chain in place of the trimethylsilyl group. Mechanism for these photocyclizations involving intramolecular SET from sulfur in the ${\alpha}$-silylmethylthioalkyl groups to the singlet excited state phthalimide moieties followed by desilylation of the intermediate ${\alpha}$ -silylmethylthio cation radicals and cyclization by radical coupling is proposed. In contrast, photoreactions of N-(trimethylsilylmethylthioalkyl)phthalimides in acetone follow different reaction routes to produce another cyclized products in which carbon-carbon bond formation takes place between the phthalimide carbonyl carbon and the carbon ${\alpha}$ to silicon and sulfur atoms via triplet carbonyl hydrogen abstraction pathway. The normal singlet SET pathway dominates this triplet process for photoreactions of these substances in methanol while the triplet process dominates the singlet SET pathway for those in acetone. The efficient and regioselective cyclization reactions observed for photolyses in methanol represent synthetically useful processes for construction of medium and large ring heterocyclic compounds.

Studies have been conducted to explore single electron transfer (SET) induced photocyclization reactions of N-(trimethylsilylmethoxyalkyl)phthalimides(alkyl=E thyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, n-pentyl, and n-octyl). Photocyclizations occur in methanol in high yields to produce cyclized products in which phthalimide carbonyl carbon is bonded to the carbon of side chain in place of the trimethylsilyl group. Mechanism for these photocyclizations involving intramolecular SET from oxygen in the $\alpha-silylmethoxy$ groups to the singlet excited state phthalimide moieties followed by desilylation of the intermediate $\alpha-silylmethoxy$ cation radicals and cyclization by radical coupling are proposed. In contrast, photoreaction of N-(trimethylsilylmethoxyethyl) phthalimide in acetone follows different reaction routes to produce two cyclized products in which carbon-carbon bond formation takes place between the phthalimide carbonyl carbon and the carbon $\alpha$ to silicon and oxygen atoms via triplet carbonyl hydrogen abstraction triplet carbonyl silyl group abstraction pathways. The normal singlet SET pathway dominates these triplet processes for photoreaction of this substance in methanol. The efficient and regioselective cyclization reactions observed for photolysis in methanol represent synthetically useful processes for construction of medium and large ring heterocyclic compounds.

A novel and efficient tetrahydrofuranyl ring opening method was developed using the highly reactive TFAT reagent in the presence of an acid scavenger, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylpyridine. Various acid sensitive groups are compatible with the reaction condition, making it generally applicable to many tetrahydrofuranyl steroids. Moreover, it is a synthetic equivalent of 'Marker degradation' affording an efficient synthesis of C17-OH rockogenin acetate.
