Acyl chlorides organozinc compounds

CoBr2 is a very efficient catalyst for acylation of organozinc compounds with aliphatic and aromatic acid chlorides,... [Pg.448]

Acylation of organozinc reagents. Reaction of acyl chlorides with organozinc compounds catalyzed by palladium-phosphine complexes provides a general synthesis of ketones. The organozincs are readily available by treatment of the corresponding organo-lithium with ZnCh. Alkenylzinc compounds and a,p-unsaturated acyl chlorides react with retention of the stereochemistry. Isolated yields of ketones are 55-90%. [Pg.471]

Organozinc addition reactions to unsaturated systems lead to an intermediate zinc compound which is in most cases further hydrolyzed to give the corresponding protonated organic compound. This intermediate can also be trapped by reaction with electrophiles (see Electrophile) (E+) such as aldehydes, acyl chlorides, organic halides, silyl halides, and so on. Depending on the nature of the electrophile (see... [Pg.5240]

Organozinc compounds can be prepared by direct metallation of organic halides with zinc metal. The procedure makes the coupling reaction more convenient. A mixture of alkyl halide, acyl chloride, and zinc metal upon stirring in the presence of palladium catalyst at room temperature gives the desired ketone.f - " While direct metallation can be carried out efficiently when the zinc-copper couple is used in some cases, the presence of copper ion sometimes prevents the coupling reaction with acyl chloride.f ...
