Copper I bromide

Thirty minutes after refluxing had stopped, a trace of copper(I) bromide was added to terminate the conversion. The reaction mixture was cautiously poured on to 500 g of finely crushed ice, then 200 ml of 4 N hydrochloric acid were added. After the remaining ice had melted the layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted three times with diethyl ether. The combined ethereal solutions were washed with saturated NaCl solution and dried over magnesium sulfate. The greater part of... 

To a mixture of 0.30 mol of l-diethylamino-4-methoxy-2-butyne (see Chapter V, Exp. 15) and 175 ml of dry diethyl ether were added 2.5 g of copper(I) bromide. 

To a mixture of 100 ml of THF and 0.10 mol of the epoxide (note 1) was added 0.5 g Of copper(I) bromide. A solution of phenylmagnesium bromide (prepared from 0.18 mol of bromobenzene, see Chapter II, Exp. 5) in 130 ml of THF was added drop-wise in 20 min at 20-30°C. After an additional 30 min the black reaction mixture was hydrolysed with a solution of 2 g of NaCN or KCN and 20 g of ammonium chloride in 150 ml of water. The aqueous layer was extracted three times with diethyl ether. The combined organic solutions were washed with water and dried over magnesium sulfate. The residue obtained after concentration of the solution in a water-pump vacuum was distilled through a short column, giving the allenic alcohol, b.p. 100°C/0.2 mmHg, n. 1.5705, in 75% yield. 

To 200 ml of 48% hydrobromic acid was added 0.40 mol of phosphorus tribromide (note 1). The mixture was agitated vigorously, while the temperature was kept between 20 and 30 0 by cooling in a water-bath at 10-15 0. After about 1 h the lower layer had disappeared completely. The solution was cooled to 0°C, then 0.40 mol of ammonium bromide, 0.10 mol (note 2) of copper(I) bromide (commercial product),... 

To a mixture of 0.10 mol of 1-ethoxy-l,2-heptadiene (see this chapter, Exp. 13) and 120 ml of diethyl ether was added 1 g of copper(I) bromide. A solution of butyl magnesium bromide in about 200 ml of diethyl ether, prepared from 0.25 mol of butyl bromide (see Chapter II, Exp. 5) was added in 15 min. The reaction was weakly exothermic and the temperature rose slowly to about 32°C. The mixture was held for an additional 40 min at that temperature, then the black reaction mixture was... 

Although It IS possible to prepare aryl chlorides and aryl bromides by electrophilic aromatic substitution it is often necessary to prepare these compounds from an aromatic amine The amine is converted to the corresponding diazonmm salt and then treated with copper(I) chloride or copper(I) bromide as appropriate... 

Furan and thiophene undergo addition reactions with carbenes. Thus cyclopropane derivatives are obtained from these heterocycles on copper(I) bromide-catalyzed reaction with diazomethane and light-promoted reaction with diazoacetic acid ester (Scheme 41). The copper-catalyzed reaction of pyrrole with diazoacetic acid ester, however, gives a 2-substituted product (Scheme 42).

In addition to the boron trifluoride-diethyl ether complex, chlorotrimcthylsilanc also shows a rate accelerating effect on cuprate addition reactions this effect emerges only if tetrahydrofuran is used as the reaction solvent. No significant difference in rate and diastereoselectivity is observed in diethyl ether as reaction solvent when addition of the cuprate, prepared from butyllithium and copper(I) bromide-dimethylsulfide complex, is performed in the presence or absence of chlorotrimethylsilane17. If, however, the reaction is performed in tetrahydrofuran, the reaction rate is accelerated in the presence of chlorotrimethylsilane and the diastereofacial selectivity increases to a ratio of 88 12 17. In contrast to the reaction in diethyl ether, the O-silylated product is predominantly formed in tetrahydrofuran. The alcohol product is only formed to a low extent and showed a diastereomeric ratio of 55 45, which is similar to the result obtained in the absence of chlorotrimethylsilane. This discrepancy indicates that the selective pathway leading to the O-silylated product is totally different and several times faster than the unselective pathway" which leads to the unsilylated alcohol adduct. A slight further increase in the Cram selectivity was achieved when 18-crown-6 was used in order to increase the steric bulk of the reagent. 

The regiochcmistry for stoichiometric alkylation with butyl(cyano)copper magnesium bromide is the same as that for the copper cyanide catalyzed reaction. The regiochemistry with dibutyl-copper magnesium bromide is also very similar to that of the copper(I) bromide catalyzed reaction. Lithium cuprates do not exhibit y regioselectivity in this biased system. 

A similar salt effect is observed in the reaction of propargylic epoxides67. RMgBr in diethyl ether in the presence of 5% CuBr PBu, gave an anti-SN2 substitution product, whereas RMgCl in diethyl ether/pentane in the presence of 5% copper(I) bromide and chlorotrimethylsilane (1 equivalent) afforded a syn-SN2 substitution product (Table 3). 

Stannane 6a underwent facile transmetalation in tetrahydrofuran at — 78 °C on treatment with butyllithium to afford 6b. Addition of the lithium reagent 6b to a solution of 1.1 equivalents of copper(I) bromide-dimethyl sulfide in 1 1 diisopropyl sulfide/tetrahydrofuran at — 78 °C gave the copper reagent 6c, which reacted with methyl vinyl ketone at —78 "C in the presence of boron trifluoride-diethyl ether65, producing 7 in 55% yield65.
