Unlike elimination and nucleophilic substitution reactions foimation of oigano lithium compounds does not require that the halogen be bonded to sp hybndized carbon Compounds such as vinyl halides and aiyl halides m which the halogen is bonded to sp hybndized carbon react m the same way as alkyl halides but at somewhat slowei rates... 

Substitution Reactions. Aromatic heterocycHc A/-oxides undergo both electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution because the dipolar N-oxide group is both an electron donor and an electron acceptor, giving rise to the resonance stmctures ...

Pyrazine and quinoxaline fV-oxides generally undergo similar reactions to their monoazine counterparts. In the case of pyridine fV-oxide the ring is activated both towards electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution reactions however, pyrazine fV-oxides are generally less susceptible to electrophilic attack and little work has been reported in this area. Nucleophilic activation generally appears to be more useful and a variety of nucleophilic substitution reactions have been exploited in the pyrazine, quinoxaline and phenazine series. 

An alternative approach is in terms of frontier electron densities. In electrophilic substitution, the frontier electron density is taken as the electron density in the highest filled MO. In nucleophilic substitution the frontier orbital is taken as the lowest vacant MO the frontier electron density at a carbon atom is then the electron density that would be present in this MO if it were occupied by two electrons. Both electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution thus occur at the carbon atom with the greatest appropriate frontier electron density. 

The two most reactive types of derivatives are expected to be the 4-Le-l,3,6,8- and 4-Le-l,2,3,6-tetraazanaphthalenes 456 and 457. Of the twenty-two possible ring systems, ten are known in aromatic form, and nucleophilic substitution has been carried out on only four of these. Covalent hydration has been observed in the pteri-dines and in 1,4,6,8-tetraazanaphthalenes. 

We shall now examine some applications of these ideas. Experiments were carried out on the reaction between isopropyl bromide and ethoxide ions. This process consists of competing elimination and nucleophilic substitution reactions,19... 

Phosphine-borane 63a (75% ee) was obtained by reduction of compound (Sp)-62a using LDBB at -60°C and nucleophilic substitution with iodomethane in 72 % yield. The observed loss of optical purity may be ascribed to stereomutation of the generated tricoordinated phosphorus species. Recrystallization afforded (S)-63a in > 99% ee. On the other hand, severe racemization was observed using the same method with (Rp)-62b. An alternative strategy consisted of deborana-tion of (Rp)-62b using ZSl-methylpyrrolidine, methylation with methyl triflate.

In this article, special attention has been paid to cyclopropanations, Diels-Alder reactions, and nucleophilic substitutions, for which numerous works have been devoted to the use of Ar,N-containing ligands. Other classical reactions allowing the formation of a new C - C bond have been omitted here (e.g., Michael-type additions or aldol reactions) where they have also been, to a lesser extent, efficiently performed using nitrogen-containing ligands. 

To obtain this compound the key step consisted in the epimerization of the C-5 in compound 6. This was acomplished by triflation of the alcohol 6 and nucleophilic substitution of the triflate by a large excess of tetrabutylammonium acetate in dichloromethane. A controlled (4 °C, 3 h) basic methanolysis of the enol benzoate led to the keto-ester 11" whose hydroxyl functions at C-4 and C-6 were simultaneously deprotected under acidic conditions to furnish 12. Finally a Zemplen deprotection of the 5-acetoxy group led to 13 obtained in five steps and 11% overall yield from 6 (figure 4).
