Tropone or 2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one is an organic compound with some importance in organic chemistry as a non-benzenoid aromatic. [2] The compound consists of a ring of seven carbon atoms with three conjugated alkene groups and a ketone group.
Troponin, or the troponin complex, is a complex of three regulatory proteins (troponin C, troponin I, and troponin T) that are integral to muscle contraction [2] in skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle, but not smooth muscle.
Cycloheptatriene (CHT) is an organic compound with the formula C 7 H 8.It is a closed ring of seven carbon atoms joined by three double bonds (as the name implies) and four single bonds.
The 1917 synthesis by Robinson is considered a classic in total synthesis [8] due to its simplicity and biomimetic approach. Tropinone is a bicyclic molecule, but the reactants used in its preparation are fairly simple: succinaldehyde, methylamine and acetonedicarboxylic acid (or even acetone).
In 1998, Mander et al. synthesized the diterpenoid tropone, harringtonolide [6] using the Buchner intramolecular ring expansion annulation chemistry. A rhodium catalyst (Rh 2 (mandelate) 4) and DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene) were used to generate the carbene. This natural product was found to have antineoplastic and antiviral properties.
[6+4] Cycloaddition is a type of cycloaddition between a six-atom pi system and a four-atom pi system, leading to a ten-membered ring. Because this is a higher-order cycloaddition, issues of periselectivity arise in addition to the usual concerns about regio- and stereoselectivity.

Homoaromaticity, in organic chemistry, refers to a special case of aromaticity in which conjugation is interrupted by a single sp 3 hybridized carbon atom. Although this sp 3 center disrupts the continuous overlap of p-orbitals, traditionally thought to be a requirement for aromaticity, considerable thermodynamic stability and many of the spectroscopic, magnetic, and chemical properties ...
