The isomerization of 1,5-cyclooctadiene (1,5-COD) with Ni(acac)2–Et3Al2Cl3–phosphorus ligand (Ni : Al2 : P=1 : 10 : 3) was first examined with varying P ligands in toluene in order to find suitable conditions for the formation of 1,4-COD. The product distribution depended largely on the P ligands. For several phosphites possessing very strong π-acceptor properties, the main product was 1,4-COD. In particular, the less-bulky bicyclic phosphite, 4-ethyl-2,6,7-trioxa-1-phosphabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (L-3) was very effective and gave 1,4-COD in a high selectivity of 93% at 66% conversion (1,5-COD/ Ni=500, molar ratio) by employing a low temperature of −30°C. However, the reaction stopped before reaching completion because the catalyst was deactivated by the accumulation of 1,4-COD product. The conversion, depending on the 1,5-COD/toluene ratio (volume) rather than the 1,5-COD/Ni ratio, increased with a decrease in the 1,5-COD/ toluene ratio and was 66–69% at a ratio of 0.19. On the other hand, the catalyst (P: L-3) was much less active for 1,4-COD than for 1,5-COD and was deactivated quickly under the same reaction conditions. This appeared to result in a high selectivity of 1,4-COD in the isomerization of 1,5-COD. The mechanistic implications of the experimental results are discussed.
1,5-环辛二烯(1,5-COD)在Ni(acac)2–Et3Al2Cl3–磷配体(Ni : Al2 : P=1 : 10 : 3)催化下的异构化反应,首先在甲苯中对不同的磷配体进行了研究,以寻找适合形成1,4-COD的条件。产物分布在很大程度上依赖于磷配体。对于几种具有非常强的π-受体特性的磷酸酯,主要产物为1,4-COD。尤其是体积较小的双环磷酸酯,4-乙基-2,6,7-三氧-1-磷双环[2.2.2]辛烷(L-3)非常有效,在−30°C的低温下,以66%的转化率在1,5-COD/Ni=500的摩尔比下,获得了93%的1,4-COD高选择性。然而,在达到完全转化前反应停止,因为催化剂因1,4-COD产物的积累而失活。转化率与1,5-COD/甲苯的体积比(而非1,5-COD/Ni的比例)相关,并随着1,5-COD/甲苯比的减少而增加,在比率为0.19时达到了66%-69%。另一方面,催化剂(P: L-3)对1,4-COD的活性远低于对1,5-COD,且在相同的反应条件下迅速失活。这似乎导致1,5-COD异构化中1,4-COD的高选择性。讨论了实验结果的机理意义。
