Formation and reactivity of .sigma.-radical cation intermediates in the carbon-carbon coupling reaction of phenyldiazomethanes by one-electron oxidation
摘要:
One-electron oxidation of phenyldiazomethanes afforded cis-stilbene predominantly. The reaction was independent of the oxidation methods, e.g., electrolysis, copper(II), triarylaminium salts, or photosensitized one-electron oxidations. The C-C coupling reaction was retarded by introducing alpha-substituents on phenyldiazomethane. The ESR spectra of diazoalkane radical cations could be obtained during the electrolysis at low temperature and the resulting spectra revealed their unique electronic structure as sigma-radicals for most cases. When a bulky tert-butyl group was substituted, the corresponding pi-radical cation was observed, but the C-C coupling reaction did not occur. The novel HOMO-LUMO switching by one-electron removal from the HOMO pi-orbital of diazomethane is explained by the interaction of phenyl group with the C-N-N sigma-radical moiety. The C-C coupling reaction proceeds via facile [4 + 2] cycloaddition between the diazomethane and sigma-radical cation, and the preferential formation of cis-olefins is based on the secondary orbital interaction between the two phenyl groups. The structure and the stability of radical cation intermediates are rationalized on the basis of ab initio calculations.

The phonylcarbene rearrangement is used to produce carbenes that are compared to the intermediates formed on photolysis and pyrolysis of diazo compounds.

Hydrazones of further mono- and especially di-carbonyl compounds have been studied. That of acetonylacetone gave hexa-2,5-diene, and that of biphenacyl gave diphenylbutadiene with much 3,6-diphenylpyridazine. Hydrazones of αβ-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones gave pyrazoles, also obtained under the same conditions from 1-toluenesulphonylpyrazolines. Hydrazones of ω-substituted acetophenones, PhCO·CH2X

Laser flash photolysis of alkylphenyldiazomethanes in the presence of pyridine produces easily detected ylides. The data indicate that photolysis of alkylphenyldiazomethanes leads to both carbene formation and direct formation of rearrangement products which do not derive from relaxed carbene intermediates

This work offers a catalytic approach to convergent ketone assembly based upon formal and tandem C–H insertion of diazoalkanes in the presence of limiting amounts of monomeric formaldehyde, which is easily generated as a gas by thermolysis of the inexpensive and abundant paraformaldehyde (∼30 USD/kg). The method forms di-, tri-, and even tetrasubstituted acetones with high efficiency, and it has streamlined

A novel cycloaddition mechanism involving diazomethane radical cations is proposed for the dimeric olefin formation by the one-electron oxidation of diazo-compounds. The preference of cis-stilbene formation from phenyldiazomethane is understood by a secondary orbital interaction of phenyl groups on the cycloaddition step.
