Abstract
2,10,14, 18,22-Hexaazaspiro[11.11]tricosane 1 has been prepared in seven steps from pentaerythritol. The key steps include two successive cyclizations by displacement of two tosyloxy groups from the appropriate pentaerythritol derivatives (4: 6) with 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD), each reaction being followed by sodium borohydride reduction. Hydrolysis of the spiro bis(hexahydro-1 H,4H,7H-3a,6a,9a-triazaphenalene) formed 1. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
