2-Ethyl-3-butyn

Some studies seeking preferred conditions for this reaction have been reported. Optimum yields of 1-ethoxy-1-propyne and 1-ethoxy-l-butyne are found when the product is worked up before allowing the ammonia solvent to evaporate, as the product evidently volatilizes with the ammonia. An experiment with 1-ethoxy-1-propyne showed a marked increase in yield when ammonia predried over calcium hydride was used instead of ammonia directly from the cylinder. A twofold excess of ethyl bromide is required to obtain a good yield of l-ethoxy-l-but5me, since elimination apparently competes with alkylation in this case.

At reflux, tetrahydrafuran slowly adds to terminal perfluoroalkylethylenes, perfluoroalkylacetylenes, and ethyl perfluoroalkylpropynoates [25] (equation 18) By contrast, the ionic addition of enamines to hexaJluoro-2-butyne is exothermic and gives dieneamines that, on acidic hydrolysis, yield fluoroalkenyl ketones [26] (equation 19)... 

Examples of perfluoroalkyl iodide addition to the triple bond include free radical addition of perfluoropropyl iodide to 1 -heptyne [28] (equation 21), thermal and free radical-initiated addition of lodoperfluoroalkanesulfonyl fluorides to acetylene [29] (equation 22), thermal addition of perfluoropropyl iodide to hexa-fluoro 2 butyne [30] (equation 23), and palladium-catalyzed addition of per-fluorobutyl iodide to phenylacetylene [31] (equation 24) The E isomers predominate in these reactions Photochemical addition of tnfluoromethyl iodide to vinylacetylene gives predominantly the 1 4 adduct by addition to the double bond [32] Platinum catalyzed addition of perfluorooctyl iodide to l-hexyne in the presence of potassium carbonate, carbon monoxide, and ethanol gives ethyl () per fluorooctyl-a-butylpropenoate [JJ] (equation 25)... 

Acetylenic compounds have been described for inhibition in acid solutionsTypical inhibitors include 2-butyne-l,4-diol, l-hexyne-3-ol and 4-ethyl-l-octyne-3-ol. 

In a deceivingly simple process apparently involving a butatriene intermediate, a one-pot preparation of ethyl 5-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylate (6) from diethyl acetamidomalonate (4) and l,4-dichloro-2-butyne (5) has been described <96JOC9068>. 

Transition-metal catalyzed decomposition of alkyl diazoacetates in the presence of acetylenes offers direct access to cyclopropene carboxylates 224 in some cases, the bicyclobutane derivatives 225 were isolated as minor by-products. It seems justified to state that the traditional copper catalysts have been superseded meanwhile by Rh2(OAc)4, because of higher yields and milder reaction conditions217,218) (Table 17). [(n3-C3H5)PdCl]2 has been shown to promote cyclopropenation of 2-butyne with ethyl diazoacetate under very mild conditions, too 2l9), but obviously, this variant did not achieve general usage. Moreover, Rh2(OAc)4 proved to be the much more efficient catalyst in this special case (see Table 17). 

Somei adapted this chemistry to syntheses of (+)-norchanoclavine-I, ( )-chanoclavine-I, ( )-isochanoclavine-I, ( )-agroclavine, and related indoles [243-245, 248]. Extension of this Heck reaction to 7-iodoindoline and 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol led to a synthesis of the alkaloid annonidine A [247]. In contrast to the uneventful Heck chemistry of allylic alcohols with 4-haloindoles, reaction of thallated indole 186 with 2-methyl-4-trimethylsilyl-3-butyn-2-ol affords an unusual l-oxa-2-sila-3-cyclopentene indole product [249]. Hegedus was also an early pioneer in exploring Heck reactions of haloindoles [250-252], Thus, reaction of 4-bromo-l-(4-toluenesulfonyl)indole (11) under Heck conditions affords 4-substituted indoles 222 [250], Murakami described the same reaction with ethyl acrylate [83], and 2-iodo-5-(and 7-) azaindoles undergo a Heck reaction with methyl acrylate [19].

A stereospecific synthesis for cw-3-hexen-l-ol starts with the ethylation of sodium acetylide to 1 -butyne, which is reacted with ethylene oxide to give 3-hexyn-l-ol. Selective hydrogenation of the triple bond in the presence of palladium catalysts yields cw-3-hexen-l-ol. Biotechnological processes have been developed for its synthesis as a natural flavor compound, e.g., [12]. 

Addition of acetylene to acetone results in the formation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol, which is hydrogenated to 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol in the presence of a palladium catalyst. This product is converted into its acetoacetate derivative with diketene [38] or with ethyl acetoacetate [39]. The acetoacetate undergoes rearrangement when heated (Carroll reaction) to give 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one ...

In the reversible Wittig reaction, triphenylarsine oxide reacted with electron-deficient acetylene derivatives to form stable ylides. Thus triphenylarsine oxide reacted readily with methyl propiolate, ethyl phenylpropiolate, dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, and hexafluoro-2-butyne as well as dicyanoacetylene to give arsonium ylides (12). The reaction temperatures required ranged from -70°C in the case of dicyanoacetylene to 130°C in the case of ethyl phenylpropiolate (15). 

American workers needed to prepare the bis-amino acid 1 and adopted a literature procedure in which two equivalents of diethyl acetamidomalonate were to be alkylated with one equivalent of l,4-dichloro-2-butyne using two equivalents of sodium ethoxide in hot ethanol. Hydrolysis and decarboxylation of the dialkylated malonate would then give 1. This alkylation reaction was carried out, but ten equivalents of sodium ethoxide were used rather than two. This resulted in formation of ethyl 5-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylate in ca. 40% yield. Further study showed that the reaction to produce the pyrrole required equimolar amounts of the acetamidomalonate and the dichlorobutyne, excess of sodium ethoxide, and heating. No pyrrole was formed at room temperature.

The reaction mixture was cooled to 10°C and concentrated HCI (50 ml) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuum and the residue was partitioned between H20 (50 ml) and ethyl acetate (200 ml). The 2-phase mixture was cooled to 10°C and taken to pH 8 with 50% aqueous NaOH solution (60 ml). After stirring for 15 min the layers were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted twice with 200 ml of ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate extracts were cooled to 10°C and a solution of KOCN (8.1 g, 0.10 mmol) in H20 (30 ml) was added, followed by dropwise addition of 11 ml of concentrated HCI, and the reaction mixture was... 

To a solution of 2-iodo-5-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)thiophene (5.30 g, 16.6 mmol), in anhydrous DMF (5.0 ml) was added (R)-N-hydroxy-N-(3-butyn-2-yl)urea (2.12 g, 16.6 mmol), triphenylphosphine (84.0 mg, 0.32 mmol), bis(acetonitrile)palladium(II) chloride (40.0 mg, 0.16 mmol), copper(I) iodide (16.0 mg, 0.08 mmol), and diethylamine (5.6 ml). The mixture was stirred under nitrogen at room temperature for 22 h and concentrated in vacuum at 32°C. The residue was subjected to chromatography on silica eluting with 2-7% MeOH in CH2CI2, crystallization from ethyl acetate-hexane and trituration in CH2CI2 to afford (R)-N- 3-[5-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)thien-2-yl]-l-methyl-2-propynylVN-hydroxyurea as a cream-colored solid 0.94 g (18%), melting point 135°-136°C, (dec). 

A solution, was prepared from 23 g of cyclopropylacetylene (0.348 mol) in 250 mL of THF by dropwise addition of 116 mL of a 3.0 M solution of ethylmagnesium bromide in ether (0.348 mol) over 1 h. This solution was maintained at 0°C for 1 h, then at 40°C for 3 h. To this solution, recooled to 0°C, 15.56 g of l-(2-amino-5-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoromethylethanone (0.0696 mol), was added as a solid, portionwise over 5 min. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at 0°C for 1.5 hours. The reaction was quenched at 0°C by dropwise addition of 700 mL of saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution. The mixture was extracted with 2 times 400 mL portions of ethyl acetate, the combined organic phases were washed with brine and dried over MgS04. Removal of the drying agent and solvents left a yellow solid. This material was recrystallized from boiling hexanes (100 mL final volume) to afford 14.67 g of 2-(2-amino-5-chlorophenyl)-4-cyclopropyl-l,l,l-trifluoro-3-butyn-2-ol. A second crop (2.1 g) was obtained from concentrating the mother liquors. M.p. 153°-154°C.
