cyanomethyl, and phenylethynyl anions add selectively ortho to arenes containing electron-witdrawing groups and complexed with cyclopentadienyliron. Under similar reaction conditions anions such as alkyl, dichloromethyl and trichloromethyl add in a non-selective way. Addition of the trichloromethyl anion is thermodynamically controlled at extended reaction times and, due to the size of the anion, the
An ionic liquid catalyzed Friedel–Crafts alkylation reaction of substituted benzenes with CCl4 was developed. The reaction proceeded efficiently under mild conditions, gave corresponding trichloromethylarenes with diversity functional groups in moderate to good yields. The influence of Lewis acidity of ionic liquids on the conversion of the alkylation reaction has been investigated. Notably, the probable
