✦ Synopsis
The synthesis of some 6-, 7-and &membered heterocycles through a base induced ring expansion of quaternized thiazolium, oxazolium and selenazolium salts is described. During studies of base-induced rearrangements of quaternized 5-(w-chloroalkyl)-thiazoles and oxazoles, -165OC) in 20-25% yield. Mass spectrum (70 eV): m/e (rel. intensity) 303 (100, M+), 301 (481, 274 (351, 222 (481, 194 (74), 184 (771, 183 (771, 178 (451, 104 (74), 103 (821, 78 (711, 77 (871, 51 (42).

An unprecedented cyclooctane to cyclononene ring expansion in the pleuromutilin skeleton, affording two main products, has been discovered. The process entails an intramolecular cyclization of an olefin onto an oxonium ion, followed by 1,2 migration of a carbon of the cyclooctane ring.
