  Pseudomonomolecular, Ionic sp²-Stereoinversion Mechanism of 1-Aryl-1-alkenyllithiums

  摘要：

  The trans/cis stereoinversion of the trigonal carbanion centers C-alpha in a series of monomeric 2-(alpha-aryl-alpha-lithiomethylidene)-1,1,3,3-tetramethylindanes (known to be trisolvated at Li) is rapid on the NMR time scales (400 and 100.6 MHz) in THF solution. The far-reaching redistribution of electric charge in the ground-state molecules caused by lithiation (formal replacement of alpha-H by alpha-Li) is illustrated through NMR shifts, Delta delta. The transition states for stereoinversion are significantly more polar and charge-delocalized than the ground states (Hammett rho = +5.2), pointing to a mechanism that involves heterolysis of the C-Li bond via a solvent-separated ion pair (SSIP). This requires immobilization of only one additional (the fourth) THF molecule at Li+, which accounts for part of the apparent activation entropies of ca. -23 cal mol(-1) K-1 and constitutes a kinetic privilege of THF depending on microsolvation at Li. Thus, the sp(2)-stereoinversion process is "catalyzed" by the solvent THF; its mechanism is monomolecular with respect to the ground-state species because the pseudo-first-order rate constants, measured through NMR line shape analyses, are independent of the concentrations (inclusive of decomposition) of the dissolved species (hence no associations and no dissociation to give free carbanion intermediates). In the deduced pseudomonomolecular mechanism (bimolecular through solvent participation), the angular C-alpha of the SSIP undergoes rehybridization (approximately in-plane inversion) through a close-to-linear transition state; this motion occurs with a concomitant "conducted tour" migration of Li(THF)(4) and is unimpaired by additional ortho-methylations at alpha-aryl. The synthetic route started with preparations of three alpha-chloro congeners through the carbenoid chain reaction, followed by vinylic substitution of alpha-Cl by alpha-SnMe3 (most efficient in THF despite steric congestion). The final Sn/Li interchange reaction afforded the new 1-aryl-1-alkenyllithium samples, initially uncontaminated by free Li+.
