tracted witjh two 50-ml portions of ether; the ether extracts were washed with two 100-ml portions of H20 and dried (MgS04). Rotary evaporation a t room temperature and analyses showed the benzoxepin 7 to benzopyran 8 ratio to be 98/2. C. With Sodium Ethoxide in Et0D.-Benzoxepin 7 (0.023 mol) was allowed t o reflux for 1 week in 7.6 ml of ethanol-d, with sodium ethoxide (0.008 mol) present. Work-up in the manner listed above in the previous experiment gave a 7/8 ratio of 83/17 (by vpc). The nmr spectrum of the mixture was a combination of the spectrum for 7 (with ratio of a/b/c/dl8 = 1/1/2/2) and 8 (ratio a/b/c/d'o = 1/1/1/2). Reaction 3-(o-Formylphenoxy)propyltriphenylphosphonium Bromide, 6 , with NaOCHa in CH10D.--8alt 6 (6.9 g, 0.014 mol) was added to a solution of 0.014 mol of NaOCHa in 20 g of CHdOD and allowed to reflux for 2.5 hr.

Reactions of Cyclopropyltriphenylphosphonium Bromide, 12. A.-Salts 1 and 12, and NaOCHa, in equimolar (0.0078 mol) ratios, were allowed to reflux in 50 ml of absolute ethanol for 8 days. Concentration and vpc of the crude mixture showed peaks in the areas (checked by spiking experiments) expected for 7 and 8 in approximately equal amounts with an over-all yield of less than 1%. B.-Similar experiments were run with only 1 and 12 [or 1, 12, and a catalytic amount of NaOCH3 (0.0008 mol)] with no apparent reaction to make 7 and 8 observed. 3-(p-Formylphenoxy)propylBromide, 19.-The title compound, 19, was prepared in exactly the same manner as that reported above for 3 (except for the use of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde).

Reaction of Methoxyethyltriphenylphosphonium Bromide, 13, with Benzaldehyde.-To 100 ml of absolute ethanol was added 0.3 g of S a , under nitrogen. When this had dissolved, 7.6 g (0.018 mol) of 13* was added and stirred under reflux for 6 hr. Then 2.2 g of benzaldehyde (0.02 mol) was added; the mixture, refluxed under nitrogen an additional 12 hr, was added to 500 ml of water, extracted with two 200-ml portions of ether, dried (MgS04j, and concentrated.

Y o methyl cinnamyl ether could be detected in the vpc of the product mixture by comparison with an authentic sample. Furfuryltriphenylphosphonium Bromide, 16.-To a 500-ml round-bottomed flask fitted with condenser and stirrer was added 20 g (0.204 mol) of fresh furfuryl alcohol in 200 ml of ether (dried over Na).

The ice bath was then removed, the mixture stirred for several moments, and allowed to stand at room temperature for l hr. The ether was decanted into a clean flask, treated (with cooling) with a 407, NaOH solution, and stirred for 10 min. The ether was decanted off again and dried over XaOH pellets. After filtration, the ether solution of the bromide was added to a 1-1. flask and treated with 53 g (0.204 mol) of triphenylphosphine in 400 ml of ether (under Nz).

Isolation of 16 via NBS Bromination of 2-Methyl-4,s-dihydrofuran with Peroxide.-To a 600-ml flask fitted with stirrer and condenser was added 25 g (0,03 mol) of 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran in 200 ml of benzene. To this was added a small amount of benzoyl peroxide and then, with stirring, 53 g (0.3 mol) of N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) slowly, keeping the temperature below 35'. After stirring for 1 hr at room temperature, the mixture was cooled to lo", filtered, diluted to 600 ml with ethyl acetate in a 1-1. flask, and treated with 79 g of triphenylphosphine in 200 ml of ethyl acetate, dropwise. The temperature was then brought to reflux and held for 24 hr. Filtration gave a solid which had mp 270-271' dec and was shown to be 16 by its infrared spectrum, tlc, and mixture melting point. Hydrolysis of 21.-To a 250-ml flask fitted with stirrer and reflux condenser was added 7.0 g (0.017 mol) of 21 in 100 ml of aqueous ethanol. T o this was added 0.9 g (0.017 mol) of KOH in aqueous ethanol. The mixture was refluxed for 12 hr, added to 500 ml of HzO, and extracted with ether. The ether wm

Notes Bridged Ring Compounds. XVI,' Stereoselectivity in Epoxidation of Bicyclic Anhydrides2 L. H. ZALKOWAND S. K. GABRIEL School qf Chemistrg, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia 9033R Received June 24, 1968

Recently, we reported that, both on ozonlysis and on treatment with trifluoroperacetic acid, methyl maleopimarate gave the sun-epoxide La It was suggested that the stereospecificity observed might be due to

and imides are reported to yield exclusivelg exo-epoxide~.~~~ I n order to obtain more information regarding intramolecular epoxidations we decided to study the epoxidation of bicyclo [2,2.2]-5-octene-2,3-endo,cis-dicarboxylic anhydride (111). During the course of our investigation, Fray, et al.,' reported that epoxidation of 111 paralleled that of bicyclo L2.2.1]-5-heptene-2,3-endo1cis-dicarboxylic anhydride; that is, the ezo-epoxide was exclusively obtained (p attack). On the other hand, anhydride IV gave the endo-epoxide (a attack). Fray, et therefore, concluded that the stereochemistry of epoxidation of these cyclic compounds is determined solely on steric grounds.

formation of an intermediate cyclic peroxide, followed by intramolecular epoxidation. Such an explanation was first proposed by Henbest4 for the cis epoxidation of cis-A4-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride. However, others6 have argued that in the latter case the observed stereospecificity arises because the cyclohexene ring in cis-A4-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride exists as an "equatorial half-boat" (11) and exo attack occurs just as in norbornenyl anhydrides.

We have found that epoxidation of 111 under conditions similar to those reported by Fray7 does in fact yield appreciable amounts of the endo-epoxide (Table I). Fray, et ul,,7 isolated the exo-epoxide of I11 in 48% yield by crystallization and apparently did not account for the remaining products.
