The acylpalladium complex formed from acyl halides undergoes intramolecular alkene insertion. 2,5-Hexadienoyl chloride (894) is converted into phenol in its attempted Rosenmund reduction[759]. The reaction is explained by the oxidative addition, intramolecular alkene insertion to generate 895, and / -elimination. Chloroformate will be a useful compound for the preparation of a, /3-unsaturated esters if its oxidative addition and alkene insertion are possible. An intramolecular version is known, namely homoallylic chloroformates are converted into a-methylene-7-butyrolactones in moderate yields[760]. As another example, the homoallylic chloroformamide 896 is converted into the q-methylene- -butyrolactams 897 and 898[761]. An intermolecular version of alkene insertion into acyl chlorides is known only with bridgehead acid chlorides. Adamantanecarbonyl chloride (899) reacts with acrylonitrile to give the unsaturated ketone 900[762],... 

Aldehydes and ketones can be converted to ethers by treatment with an alcohol and triethylsilane in the presence of a strong acid or by hydrogenation in alcoholic acid in the presence of platinum oxide. The process can formally be regarded as addition of ROH to give a hemiacetal RR C(OH)OR", followed by reduction of the OH. In this respect, it is similar to 16-14. In a similar reaction, ketones can be converted to carboxylic esters (reductive acylation of ketones) by treatment with an acyl chloride and triphenyltin hydride. " ... 

An intermediate acylnickel halide is first formed by oxidative addition of acyl halides to zero-valent nickel. This intermediate can attack unsaturated ligands with subsequent proton attack from water. It can give rise to benzyl- or benzoin-type coupling products, partially decarbonylate to give ketones, or react with organic halides to give ketones as well. Protonation of certain complexes can give aldehydes. Nickel chloride also acts as catalyst for Friedel-Crafts-type reactions. 

The carbanion is trapped with iodine to give 42. which makes a further functionali/aiion possible. Conversion of vinylic iodide 42 into a lactone is accomplished by palladium-cataly/ed carbonyla-tion under Stille conditions.13 This process ean be broken down into the following elementary reactions a) Oxidative addition of Pd° to vinylic iodide 42 with formation of 43 b) An insertion reaction of carbon monoxide with creation of the pallada-acyl species 44 c) Reaction of acid-chloride equivalent 44 with the alcohol to give lactone 13. 

The products of oxidative addition of acyl chlorides and alkyl halides to various tertiary phosphine complexes of rhodium(I) and iridium(I) are discussed. Features of interest include (1) an equilibrium between a five-coordinate acetylrhodium(III) cation and its six-coordinate methyl(carbonyl) isomer which is established at an intermediate rate on the NMR time scale at room temperature, and (2) a solvent-dependent secondary- to normal-alkyl-group isomerization in octahedral al-kyliridium(III) complexes. The chemistry of monomeric, tertiary phosphine-stabilized hydroxoplatinum(II) complexes is reviewed, with emphasis on their conversion into hydrido -alkyl or -aryl complexes. Evidence for an electronic cis-PtP bond-weakening influence is presented.

In another simple procedure, deprotonation of methoxy bis(trimethylsilyl)methane with butyl lithium and addition of the resulting anion to aldehydes induces Peterson elimination (Scheme 27). The product methyl enol ethers could be hydrolysed to the parent acyl silanes with hydrochloric acid-THF or could be treated with electrophiles such as M-halosuccinimides to give a-haloacyl silanes105. Alternatively, treatment with phenyl selenenyl chloride, oxidation at selenium and selenoxide elimination afforded a,/3-unsaturated acyl silanes. 

A number of a,/J-unsaUiraled acyl silanes have been prepared from silyl enol ethers of acyl silanes (Scheme 41)129. Addition of phenyl sulphenyl chloride to the silyl enol ether with subsequent elimination of chlorotrimethylsilane gives the a-(phenylthio)acyl silane. Oxidation to the sulphoxide followed by in situ elimination of benzenesulphenic... 

Mesylates are used for Ni-catalysed reactions. Arenediazodium salts 2 are very reactive pseudohalides undergoing facile oxidative addition to Pd(0). They are more easily available than aryl iodides or triflates. Also, acyl (aroyl) halides 4 and aroyl anhydrides 5 behave as pseudohalides after decarbonylation under certain conditions. Sulfonyl chlorides 6 react with evolution of SO2. Allylic halides are reactive, but their reactions via 7t-allyl complexes are treated in Chapter 4. Based on the reactions of those pseudohalides, several benzene derivatives such as aniline, phenol, benzoic acid and benzenesulfonic acid can be used for the reaction, in addition to phenyl halides. In Scheme 3.1, reactions of benzene as a parent ring compound are summarized. Needless to say, the reactions can be extended to various aromatic compounds including heteroaromatic compounds whenever their halides and pseudohalides are available. 

The acylpalladium is formed by CO insertion as the intermediate of the carbonylation. They can be prepared directly by the oxidative addition of acyl chlorides to Pd(0). Thus ketones can be prepared by the reaction of acyl halides with organozinc reagents and organostannanes. Benzoacetate (490) is obtained by the reaction of benzoyl chloride with the Reformatsky reagent 489 [243], The macrocyclic keto lactone 492 is obtained by intramolecular reaction of the alkenylstannane with acyl chloride in 491 [244]. 

The mechanism of this three-component coupling reaction is probably analogous to the aforementioned insertion of acyl chlorides (above). One can imagine assembling an intermediate acylpalladium species either by oxidative addition to an acyl chloride or, in this case, by oxidative addition to the aromatic iodide followed by migratory insertion into carbon monoxide. Once formed, the acylpalladium intermediate can insert into the SCB to furnish a 7-(chlorosilyl)propyl ketone, which cyclizes in the presence of the amine to afford cyclic enol ethers. 

In addition to various unsaturated carbon electrophiles discussed earlier, acyl chlorides and other halides readily undergo oxidative addition to Pd. Indeed,... 

Indium trichloride promotes catalytically the addition of alkynylstannanes to aldehydes (Table 25).42 Metallic indium also mediates the same Barbier-type coupling between alkynyl halides and aldehydes or ketones to give secondary or tertiary propargyl alcohols (Table 26). Secondary alcohols can be oxidized in situ according an Oppenauer process.395 Thus, alkynyl ketones have been prepared from aldehydes via an indium-mediated alkynylation reaction followed by an indium-mediated Oppenauer oxidation. They are also obtained via an indium-mediated alkynylation of the relevant acyl chlorides (Table 27).396... 

Addition of diaryl tellurium oxides to excess acyl chlorides quantitatively produced diaryl tellurium dichlorides1. 

In a short known reaction sequence, enal 250 was obtained from commercially available material 184). With methylamine and magnesium sulfate imine 251 was formed and combined with acyl chloride 252 185) (>4 steps). The use of low temperatures for this acylation led exclusively to the less substituted dienamide 253. The desired basic skeleton of dendrobine 254 was obtained by cyclizing 253 at 180°C in an acceptable 50% yield, Adduct 254 was accompanied by small amounts of the exo-adduct. Epoxidation led exclusively to exo-epoxide 255, which by means of trimethylsilyltriflate was converted into the allylic silyl ether. Acid treatment liberated the hydroxy group and subsequent oxidation of alcohol 256 led to enone 163, an intermediate of Inubushi s dendrobine synthesis and thus concluded this formal synthesis. The intermediate 163 was obtained from commercially not available materials in seven steps in 22.5% overall yield. To reach ( )-dendrobine according to Inubushi et al. would afford six additional steps, reducing the overall yield to 0.4% without including the preparation of the starting materials from commercially available compounds. 

The glyoxylative-decarbonylative coupling rationalizes as follows (Scheme 27). After the oxidative addition of indole-3-glyoxylyl chloride 38, adduct 39 undergoes a migratory de-insertion and elimination of carbon monoxide furnishing the acyl-Pd...
