Copper Compounds halide

Piperazinothiazoies (2) were obtained by such a replacement reaction, Cu powder being used as catalyst (25. 26). 2-Piperidinothiazoles are obtained in a similar way (Scheme 2) (27). This catalytic reaction has been postulated in the case of benzene derivatives as a nucleophilic substitution on the copper-complexed halide in which the halogen possesses a positive character by coordination (29). For heterocyclic compounds the coordination probably occurs on the ring nitrogen. 

Organometallic compounds of copper were known for a long time before their versatil ity in synthetic organic chemistry was fully appreciated The most useful ones are the lithium dialkylcuprates which result when a copper(I) halide reacts with two equivalents of an alkyllithium in diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran... 

Copper(I) halide-catalyzed coupling reactions of perfluoro Gngnard reagents with allyl and propargyl halides have been reported [256], The acetylenic copper compound may be an intermediate in these reactions. 

Perfluoroarylcopper compounds are usually prepared from the corresponding perfluoroaryllithium, -magnesium, or -cadmium reagents and copper(I) halides [257] (equation 175). 

The perfluoroalkylthio- and pentafluorophenylthiocopper compounds have been used for the introduction of the -SRj- and -SAtf group into molecules [264, 265, 266, 267] for increased biological activity Trifluoromethylthiocopper has been prepared via metathesis of AgSCFj with copper(I) halides [264] and the... 

The Ullman reaction has long been known as a method for the synthesis of aromatic ethers by the reaction of a phenol with an aromatic halide in the presence of a copper compound as a catalyst. It is a variation on the nucleophilic substitution reaction since a phenolic salt reacts with the halide. Nonactivated aromatic halides can be used in the synthesis of poly(arylene edier)s, dius providing a way of obtaining structures not available by the conventional nucleophilic route. The ease of halogen displacement was found to be the reverse of that observed for activated nucleophilic substitution reaction, that is, I > Br > Cl F. The polymerizations are conducted in benzophenone with a cuprous chloride-pyridine complex as a catalyst. Bromine compounds are the favored reactants.53,124 127 Poly(arylene ether)s have been prepared by Ullman coupling of bisphenols and... 

Despite the tremendous amount of work on the binary compounds, copper chalcogenide halides were first reported in 1969 (304). Nine compounds of selenium and tellurium have been found, and they are listed in Table 1. Copper sulfide halides are still unknown. 

Emerald Green Copper compounds other than halides (when not moistened with HCI), thallium compounds. 

Also in the case of intennediate 374, a lithium-copper transmetallation with a copper(I) halide (bromide or chloride) allowed one to carry out the conjugate addition [to electrophilic olefins R CH = CH2Z (Z = COR, CO2R) giving compounds 381 in 31-76% yield], the acylation (with acyl chlorides yielding ketones 382 in 35-65% yield) and dimerization [using copper(II) chloride as the additive, to give compound 383 in 59% yield] processes ...

A large number of binary AB compounds formed by elements of groups IIIA and VA or IIA and VIA (the so-called III-V and II-VI compounds) also fcrystallize in diamond-like structures. Among the I-VII compounds, copper (I) halides and Agl crystallize in this structure. Unlike in diamond, the bonds in such binary compounds are not entirely covalent because of the difference in electronegativity between the constituent atoms. This can be understood in terms of the fractional ionic character or ionicity of bonds in these crystals. 

The remarkable variety in the permutations of the R2 Dtc ligands, various oxidation states of copper, and halide ions was again demonstrated in the synthesis of the Cu2(R2Dtc)3X2 complexes with copper in the oxidation states II and III. These paramagnetic compounds (1.77-1.86 BM per formula weight, R = Me, Et X = Br, Cl) were obtained by the reaction of CuCl or CuBr and R4Tds in CHC13 (598). 

In these compounds, an alternative structure to the cubane cluster is found, for example in [Ph3PAgI]4.106 This is the chair or step type of arrangement, illustrated in Figure 2, in which two of the four halogen atoms retain a coordination number of three. This arrangement has also been found in some copper(I) halide complexes with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane.1O7 10S The pyramidal coordination of the halogen atom is similar to that in the cubane structure, although often more distorted. 

To relieve the strain of sterically demanding ligands, a metal often remains coordinatively unsaturated. Copper(I) halides and phosphines form cubane-like metal cluster compounds, Lm(CuX) ,12 With the bulky trimesitylphosphine, a monomeric two-coordinate [CuBr(Pmes)3] is formed, Br—Cu—P = 173.7°.252 The d(Cu—P) of 2.193 A is comparable to that in normal tet-rameric complexes, but d(Cu—Br) at 2.225 A is shorter, no doubt due to the reduced coordination number. Heating crowded complexes can also result in a reduction in coordination number (see equation 65). 

Copper chalcogenide halides have been prepared by this method for the first time. Tables I and II give the data. The conditions for the preparation of these compounds are listed in Table II. 

One of the drawbacks of the Sandmeyer reaction is the number of competing side reactions leading to the formation of biaryls, azo compounds and phenols. A recent procedure to maximise the yield of aryl halide involves treatment of the arylamine with t-butyl nitrite and anhydrous copper(n) halide (the chloride or the bromide) in acetonitrile at 65 °C.28 The method is illustrated by the preparation of p-chloronitrobenzene (Expt 6.73) the overall reaction may be represented as ...
