Arene complexes of transition metals in reactions with nucleophilic reagents: XXX. Reaction of π-halomesitylene [Tetramethyl(ethyl)cyclopentadienyl]rhodium(II) complexes with anions derived from CH acids
摘要:
Reactions of fluoro- and chloromesitylene pi-complexes [(eta(6)-1-Hlg-2,4,6-Me3C6H2)(eta(5) -C5EtMe4)Rh]-(BF4)(2) (Hlg = F, Cl) with diethyl malonate anion in THF or acetone-d(6) at 20 degrees C initially (within the first 530 min) involve nucleophile addition at unsubstituted carbon atom in the arene ligand with formation of pi-cyclohexadienyl complexes {[eta(5)-1-(EtOCO)(2)CH-1-H-3-Hlg-2,4,6-Me3C6H2](eta(5)-C5EtMe4)Rhj(BF4)(2), The subsequent replacement of the halogen atom yields {[eta(6)-1-(EtOCO)(2)CH-2,4,6-Me3C6H2](eta(5) -C5EtMe4)Rh}(BF4)(2), where the arene ligand is readily withdrawn from pi-coordination by the action of chloride ion or the solvent. Dimethyl mesitylmalonate was isolated in 76% yield. Likewise, the reactions with anions derived from malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate gave 25-38% of the corresponding derivatives 1-R-2,4,6-Me3C6H2 where R = (NC)(2)CH or EtOCO(NC)CH.

An efficient amidation method between readily available 1,1-dicyanoalkanes and either chiral or nonchiral amines was realized simply with molecular oxygen and a carbonate base. This oxidative protocol can be applied to both sterically and electronically challenging substrates in a highly chemoselective, practical, and rapid manner. The use of cyclopropyl and thioether substrates support the radical
A technically feasible method has been developed for the synthesis of variety of aryl malononitriles in high yields (70-95%) using the palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of malononitrile with aryl bromides and chlorides, respectively. The influence a several reaction parameters such as base, ligand, solvent or temperature were investigated in some detail.
AbstractR&D issues for the application of Pd‐ and Ni‐catalyzed CC and CN coupling reactions in the fine chemicals industry are discussed. In a first part, some background is given on industrial R&D and the role of CC and CN coupling for preparative applications is described. The following principal approaches to industrial research are illustrated with relevant examples from the literature and from our own laboratories: i) development of catalysts and catalytic methodologies with industrial potential; ii) finding shorter routes to target molecules using catalytic methods; iii) development of industrial catalytic processes in multi‐step syntheses.
