In the title compound, C14H14O, the seven-membered ring is in a pseudo-chair conformation. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds forming layers parallel to (010). In addition, there are weak ππ stacking inter­actions between inversion-related naphthalene ring systems, with a ring centroid–ring centroid distance of 3.518 (5) Å.

Structure description

In past years, our research group has investigated the ring-opening reactions of cyclo­propanated oxabenzonorbornadienes (CPOBD) (Carlson et al., 2014[Carlson, E., Haner, J., McKee, M. & Tam, W. (2014). Org. Lett. 16, 1776-1779.], 2016[Carlson, E., Hong, D. & Tam, W. (2016). Synthesis, 48, 4253-4259.], 2018[Carlson, E., Boutin, R. & Tam, W. (2018). Tetrahedron, 74, 5510-5518.]; Tait et al., 2016[Tait, K., Alrifai, O., Boutin, R., Haner, J. & Tam, W. (2016). Beilstein J. Org. Chem. 12, 2189-2196.]; Tigchelaar et al., 2014[Tigchelaar, A., Haner, J., Carlson, E. & Tam, W. (2014). Synlett, 25, 2355-2359.]). Recently, we have examined the intra­molecular ring-opening of reaction of CPOBD with tethered alcohol nucleophiles (Wicks et al., 2019[Wicks, C., Koh, S., Pounder, A., Carlson, E. & Tam, W. (2019). Tetrahedron Lett. 60, 151228.]). Based on previous work done in our research group, we anti­cipated two possible modes of ring-opening through nucleophilic attack at either the proximal or distal cyclo­propyl carbon atom. Reaction of the C1-alcohol tethered CPOBD I (see Fig. 3[link]) in the presence of p-TsOH·H2O in toluene afforded the Type 2 II and Type 3 III ring-opened products in 12% and 59% yields, respectively. The title structure of the Type 2 (II) regioisomer was verified by single-crystal X-ray analysis.

The reaction scheme.

The mol­ecular structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1[link]. The seven-membered ring (C1–C6/O1) is in a pseudo-chair conformation. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds (Table 1[link]), forming layers parallel to (010) (Fig. 2[link]). In addtion, there are weak ππ stacking inter­action between inversion related naphthalene ring systems (C1/C2/C7–C14) with a ring centroid–ring centroid distance of 3.518 (5) Å.

Synthesis and crystallization

To a 6 dram vial open to air were added the alcohol-tethered cyclo­propanated oxabenzonorbornadiene I (0.3547 g, 1.64 mmol), and p-TsOH·H2O (57.7 mg, 20 mol%) dissolved in 7 ml of toluene (see Fig. 3[link]). The reaction was left to stir at 333 K for 1.5 h, after which the reaction mixture was cooled and quenched with 10 ml of water. The aqueous layers were combined and back extracted with EtOAc (3 × 5 ml). The organic layers were combined, washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting crude oil was purified by flash chromatography (EtOAc:hexa­nes, 10: 90) to obtain ring-opened products II (38.5 mg, 0.194 mmol, 12%) and III (189.8 mg, 0.957 mmol) as a white solid and clear oil, respectively. The title compound II was subsequently crystallized from DCM solution by slow evaporation of the solvent to afford colourless blocks.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
