Bi allyl

Interestingly, the allylation of a stabilized carbon nucleophile has been found to be reversible. Complete isomerization of dimethyl methylmalonate, involving bis-allylic C—C bond cleavage, from a secondary carbon 38 to a primary carbon 39 was observed by treatment with a Pd catalyst for 24 h. The C—C bond cleavage of a monoaliylic system proceeds slowly[40]. 

A series of glycol bis(aUyl phthalates) and bis(aUyl succinates) and their properties are reported in reference 88. In homopolymerizations, cyclization increases in the order diaUyl aliphatic carboxylates < glycol bis(allyl succinates) < glycol bis(allyl phthalates). Copolymerizations with small amounts of DAP can give thermo set moldings of improved impact (89). 

Diethylene glycol bis (chloroformate) [106-75-2] is the starting material for diethylene glycol bis(allyl carbonate) [142-22-3] CR-39, or Nouryset 200, monomer, used in the manufacture of break-resistant optical lenses, which is obtained by the reaction with aHyl alcohol [107-18-6] (59). Alternatively, it can be obtained from aHyl chloroformate [2937-50-0] and diethylene glycol (60) (see Allylmonomers and polymers).

Desymmetrization of meso-bis-allylic alcohols is an effective method for the preparation of chiral functionalized intermediates from meso-substrates. Schreiber et al has shown that divinyl carbonyl 58 is epoxidized in good enantioselectivity. However, because the product epoxy alcohols 59 and 60 also contain a reactive allylic alcohol that are diastereomeric in nature, a second epoxidation would occur at different rates and thus affect the observed ee for the first AE reaction and the overall de. Indeed, the major diastereomeric product epoxide 59 resulting from the first AE is less reactive in the second epoxidation. Thus, high de is easily obtainable since the second epoxidation removes the minor diastereomer. 

Similarly, efficient tetracyclization (MeAlCl2-promoted) of the bis-allylic silane/ bis-epoxide 97 constitutes the key step in the synthesis of (+)-a-onocerin. In this case, because of the presence of the bis-allylic silane group, a double bis-annula-tion occurs, with the formation of the ethylene-bridge linked bis-decalin system present in the target compound (Scheme 8.26) [46],... 

A concise total synthesis of the indole alkaloid dihydrocorynantheol (101) (Scheme 19), that features two RCM steps and a zirconocene-catalyzed carbo-magnesation [68], is a further example of Martin s interest in applying RCM as a key reaction for the construction of alkaloid frameworks [69]. The first RCM step was applied to bis-allyl amide 96. The resulting intermediate 97 was directly subjected to carbomagnesation and subsequent elimination to deliver 98 in 71% yield from 96. Amide 98 was then transformed into acrylamide 99 in...

It is easier to abstract a hydrogen atom and initiate lipid peroxidation from a fatty acid that has bis-allylic centres than from a fatty-acid side chain with only one double bond. It follows, therefore, that fatty-acid composition should influence the ability of a molecule such as LDL to act as a substrate for peroxidation. The potential...

The reaction of silica-supported bis(allyl)Rh complexes with PMe3 followed by hydrogen treatment leads to the synthesis of the surface SiO-RhH2(PMe3)4+ as the first example of a cationic organometallic complex attached to the silica surface by ion pairing. The counterion is presumed to be a siloxy group SiO- on the silica surface.276 277... 

Overall, allylic isomerization in the dodecatrienediyl-Ni11 complex is predicted to require a distinctly lower barrier than for reductive elimination (AAG > 5.5kcalmol 1, see Section 4.6). This leads to the conclusion, that isomerization should be significantly more facile than the subsequent reductive elimination, which is confirmed by NMR investigations of the stoichiometric reaction.22 Consequently, the several configurations and stereoisomers of the bis(allyl),A-/restablished equilibrium, with 7b as the prevalent form. The various bis(r 3-allyl),A-/n2H.v stereoisomers of 7b are found to be close in energy, while bis(allyl), A-cf.v forms are shown to be negligibly populated (cf. Section 4.4) and therefore play no role within the catalytic reaction course.
