The cyclopropene pyrolysis story.
نویسنده
چکیده
Cyclopropene is the last of the small strained ring hydrocarbons to have its thermal decomposition subjected to intensive investigation. This critical review describes the nearly 40 year history of this investigation largely by gas kinetic methods with chromatographic analysis. These studies have revealed that cyclopropenes can decompose by a variety of mechanisms involving diradicals, vinylcarbenes and vinylidenes. Much detailed information has been obtained about the reactivity of these intermediates which has wider implications for thermal hydrocarbon pyrolysis. Theory has also played a important role. Cyclopropene itself has been shown to be an intermediate in the allene --> propyne rearrangement. The story itself illustrates how the evolution of mechanistic understanding has been anything but straightforward.

Mass spectrometry of derivatives of cyclopropene fatty acids.
Diketo fatty acids prepared by ozonization of cyclopropene fatty acids have been separated and purified by chromatographic techniques. Mass spectra of esters of these compounds and of methanethiol adducts of cyclopropene acid esters are reported and interpreted. Location of the ring from examination of mass spectra of these derivatives appears to be a straightforward matter.
متن کاملGenetically encoded cyclopropene directs rapid, photoclick-chemistry-mediated protein labeling in mammalian cells.
We just click: Genetic incorporation of a cyclopropene amino acid CpK (see scheme) site-specifically into proteins in E. coli and mammalian cells was achieved using an orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA(CUA) pair (CpKRS/MbtRNA(CUA)). Cyclopropene exhibited fast reaction kinetics in the photoclick reaction and allowed rapid (ca. 2 min) labeling of proteins.
متن کاملReduction of cyclopropene by NifV- and wild-type nitrogenases from Klebsiella pneumoniae.
The nitrogenase from wild-type Klebsiella pneumoniae reduces cyclopropene to cyclopropane and propene in the ratio 1:2 at pH 7.5. We show in this paper that the nitrogenase from a nifV mutant of K. pneumoniae also reduces cyclopropene to cyclopropane and propene, but the ratio of products is now 1:1.4. However, both nitrogenases exhibit the same Km for cyclopropene (2.1 x 10(4) +/- 0.2 x 10(4) ...
متن کاملExpanding the scope of cyclopropene reporters for the detection of metabolically engineered glycoproteins by Diels–Alder reactions
Monitoring glycoconjugates has been tremendously facilitated by the development of metabolic oligosaccharide engineering. Recently, the inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction between methylcyclopropene tags and tetrazines has become a popular ligation reaction due to the small size and high reactivity of cyclopropene tags. Attaching the cyclopropene tag to mannosamine via a carbamate link...
متن کاملBenzofurans or isochromenes via the ring-opening cyclization of cyclopropene derivatives with organolithiums.
A new and efficient approach to benzocycles from cyclopropene derivatives is described. Deprotection by organolithiums and subsequent ring-opening cyclization of the related 2-cyclopropenyl phenyl or benzyl acetates generated benzofurans and isochromenes in one pot.
