Trimethylene dibromide (Section 111,35) is easily prepared from commercial trimethj lene glycol, whilst hexamethylene dibromide (1 O dibromohexane) is obtained by the red P - Br reaction upon the glycol 1 6-hexanediol is prepared by the reduction of diethyl adipate (sodium and alcohol lithium aluminium hydride or copper-chromium oxide and hydrogen under pressure). Penta-methylene dibromide (1 5-dibromopentane) is readily produced by the red P-Brj method from the commercially available 1 5 pentanediol or tetra-hydropyran (Section 111,37). Pentamethylene dibromide is also formed by the action of phosphorus pentabromide upon benzoyl piperidine (I) (from benzoyl chloride and piperidine) ... 

Copper. Some 15 copper compounds (qv) have been used as micronutrient fertilizers. These include copper sulfates, oxides, chlorides, and cupric ammonium phosphate [15928-74-2] and several copper complexes and chelates. Recommended rates of Cu appHcation range from a low of 0.2 to as much as 14 kg/hm. Both soil and foHar appHcations are used. 

Another attractive commercial route to MEK is via direct oxidation of / -butenes (34—39) in a reaction analogous to the Wacker-Hoechst process for acetaldehyde production via ethylene oxidation. In the Wacker-Hoechst process the oxidation of olefins is conducted in an aqueous solution containing palladium and copper chlorides. However, unlike acetaldehyde production, / -butene oxidation has not proved commercially successflil because chlorinated butanones and butyraldehyde by-products form which both reduce yields and compHcate product purification, and also because titanium-lined equipment is required to withstand chloride corrosion. 

Nucleophilic Reactions. Useful nucleophilic substitutions of halothiophenes are readily achieved in copper-mediated reactions. Of particular note is the ready conversion of 3-bromoderivatives to the corresponding 3-chloroderivatives with copper(I)chloride in hot /V, /V- dim ethyl form am i de (26). High yields of alkoxythiophenes are obtained from bromo- and iodothiophenes on reaction with sodium alkoxide in the appropriate alcohol, and catalyzed by copper(II) oxide, a trace of potassium iodide, and in more recent years a phase-transfer catalyst (27). 

In a biotechnology-based approach, Japanese workers have reported on the microbial conversion of 2-methylnaphthalene to both 2-methyl-1-naphthol and menadione by Jiodococcus (64). The intermediate 2-methyl-1-naphthol can readily be converted to menadione by a variety of oxidizing agents such as heteropoly acids (65) and copper chloride (66). A review of reagents for oxidizing 2-methylnaphthalene and naphthol is available (67). 

Copper(I) chloride is insoluble to slightly soluble in water. SolubiUty values between 0.001 and 0.1 g/L have been reported. Hot water hydrolyzes the material to copper(I) oxide. CuCl is insoluble in dilute sulfuric and nitric acids, but forms solutions of complex compounds with hydrochloric acid, ammonia, and alkaU haUde. Copper(I) chloride is fairly stable in air at relative humidities of less than 50%, but quickly decomposes in the presence of air and moisture. 

Calcium carbonate has normal pH and inverse temperature solubilities. Hence, such deposits readily form as pH and water temperature rise. Copper carbonate can form beneath deposit accumulations, producing a friable bluish-white corrosion product (Fig. 4.17). Beneath the carbonate, sparkling, ruby-red cuprous oxide crystals will often be found on copper alloys (Fig. 4.18). The cuprous oxide is friable, as these crystals are small and do not readily cling to one another or other surfaces (Fig. 4.19). If chloride concentrations are high, a white copper chloride corrosion product may be present beneath the cuprous oxide layer. However, experience shows that copper chloride accumulation is usually slight relative to other corrosion product masses in most natural waters.

A catalytic version of the coupling was also developed, by using 10 mol % of CuCl2 and 20 mol % of sparteine 1 (silver chloride was used as a stoichiometric oxidant to regenerate the copper (II) oxidant). This catalytic system was applied to the asymmetric cross-coupling leading to 101 in a 41% yield and 32% ee. 

With the growing prominence of the petrochemicals industry this technology was, in turn, replaced by direct air oxidation of naphtha or butane. Both these processes have low selectivities but the naphtha route is still used since it is a valuable source of the co-products, formic and propanoic acid. The Wacker process, which uses ethylene as a feedstock for palladium/copper chloride catalysed synthesis of acetaldehyde, for which it is still widely used (Box 9.1), competed with the direct oxidation routes for a number of years. This process, however, produced undesirable amounts of chlorinated and oxychlorinated by-products, which required separation and disposal. 

Presence of 5% of copper(II) chloride caused explosion to occur at 170°C [1]. Of the series of additives copper chromite, copper chloride, nickel oxide, iron oxide, magnesium oxide, the earlier members have the greatest effect in increasing the sensitivity of the perchlorate to heat, impact and friction. 

The effects of various metal oxides and salts which promote ignition of amine-red fuming nitric acid systems were examined. Among soluble catalysts, copperQ oxide, ammonium metavanadate, sodium metavanadate, iron(III) chloride (and potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) with o-toluidine) are most effective. Of the insoluble materials, copper(II) oxide, iron(III) oxide, vanadium(V) oxide, potassium chromate, potassium dichromate, potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) and sodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate(II) were effective. 

Interestingly, the Fischer indole synthesis does not easily proceed from acetaldehyde to afford indole. Usually, indole-2-carboxylic acid is prepared from phenylhydrazine with a pyruvate ester followed by hydrolysis. Traditional methods for decarboxylation of indole-2-carboxylic acid to form indole are not environmentally benign. They include pyrolysis or heating with copper-bronze powder, copper(I) chloride, copper chromite, copper acetate or copper(II) oxide, in for example, heat-transfer oils, glycerol, quinoline or 2-benzylpyridine. Decomposition of the product during lengthy thermolysis or purification affects the yields. 

Copper compounds are used routinely and widely to control freshwater snails that serve as intermediate vectors of schistosomiasis and other diseases that afflict humans (Hasler 1949 NAS 1977 Rowe and Prince 1983 Winger etal. 1984 Al-Sabri etal. 1993). These compounds include copper sulfate, copper pentachlorophenate, copper carbonate, copper-tartaric acid, Paris green (copper arsenite-acetate), copper oxide, copper chloride, copper acetyl acetonate, copper dimethyl dithiocar-bamate, copper ricinoleate, and copper rosinate (Cheng 1979). Also, many species of oyster enemies are controlled by copper sulfate dips. All tested species of marine gastropods, tunicates, echinoderms, and crabs that had been dipped for 5 seconds in a saturated solution of copper sulfate died if held in air for as little as a few seconds to 8 h mussels, however, were resistant (MacKenzie 1961). 

Wacker (1) A general process for oxidizing aliphatic hydrocarbons to aldehydes or ketones by the use of oxygen, catalyzed by an aqueous solution of mixed palladium and copper chlorides. Ethylene is thus oxidized to acetaldehyde. If the reaction is conducted in acetic acid, the product is vinyl acetate. The process can be operated with the catalyst in solution, or with the catalyst deposited on a support such as activated caibon. There has been a considerable amount of fundamental research on the reaction mechanism, which is believed to proceed by alternate oxidation and reduction of the palladium ...

The basic study was performed on copper complexes with N,N,N, N1-tetramethylethane-1,2-diamine (TMED), which were known to be very effective oxidative coupling catalysts (7,12). From our first kinetic studies it appeared that binuclear copper complexes are the active species as in some copper-containing enzymes. By applying the very strongly chelating TMED we were able to isolate crystals of the catalyst and to determine its structure by X-ray diffraction (13). Figure 1 shows this structure for the TMED complex of basic copper chloride Cu(0H)Cl prepared from CuCl by oxidation in moist pyridine.

The more expedient, direct catalytic oxidation route to acetone was developed in Germany in the 1960s. If you had been in charge of building the acetone business from scratch, you d probably not have built any IPA-to-acetone plants if you had known about the Wacker process. It s a catalytic oxidation of propylene at 200—250°F and 125—200 psi over palladium chloride with a cupric (copper) chloride promoter. The yields are 91-94%. The hardware for the Wacker process is probably less than for the combined IPA/acetone plants. But once the latter plants were built, the economies of the Wacker process were not sufficient to shut them down and start all over. So the new technology never took hold in the United States.
