By using rapid injection NMR at low temperatures, a variety of pi-complexes of lithium dimethylcuprate(I) with C-C, C-N, and C-S double bonds have been prepared and characterized. Complexation is generally accompanied by large upfield changes in chemical shift for the substrate carbon atoms bonded to copper. In the case of alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, the changes for the carbonyl carbons are much smaller in magnitude, which is consistent with the usual eta(2) representation of these structures. It is possible for one ligand to displace another, and in this way an order of stability can be elucidated. Treatment of selected pi-complexes with chlorosilanes or cyanosilanes gives Cu-III intermediates.

Rapid-injection is a very useful technique for the preparation of temperature-sensitive and air-sensitive compounds in the cold, nitrogen-filled probe of an NMR spectrometer. We have used this method to prepare solutions of pi-complexes from 2-cyclohexenone and prototypical cuprates Me2CuLi.LiI and Me2CuLi.LiCN, and we have assigned structures on the basis of 1H and 13C NMR. In each case two pi-complexes were observed, and in the former, their rates of formation were measured by rapid-injection 1H NMR and EXSY spectroscopy. These results provide insights into the normal and anomalous conjugate addition reactions of organocuprates.
