Heptenes, addition

There are two products that can be formed by syn addition of hydrogen to 2 3 dimethylbi cyclo[2 2 1] 2 heptene Write or make molecular models of their structures... 

Titanium(IV) is a powerful but selective Lewis acid which can promote the coupling of allylsilanes with carbonyl compounds and derivatives In the presence of titanium tetrachlonde, benzalacetone reacts with allyltnmethylsilane by 1,4-addition to give 4-PHENYL-6-HEPTEN-2-ONE. Similarly, the enol silyl ether of cyclopentanone is coupled with f-pentyl chloride using titanium tetrachlonde to give 2-(tert-PENTYL)CYCLOPENTANONE, an example of a-tert-alkylation of ketones. 

Miller et al. [9] hypothesized rules on the regioselectivity of addition from the study of the base-catalyzed addition of alcohols to chlorotnfluoroethylene. Attack occurs at the vinylic carbon with most fluorines. Thus, isomers of dichloro-hexafl uorobutene react with methanol and phenol to give the corresponding saturated and vinylic ethers The nucleophiles exclusively attack position 3 of 1,1-dichloro-l,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluoro-2-butene and position I of 4,4-dichloro-l,l,2,3,3,4-hexafluoro-1-butene [10]. In I, l-dichloro-2,3,3,4,4,4-hexafluoro-l-butene, attack on position 2 is favored [J/] (equation 5) Terminal fluoroolefms are almost invariably attacked at tbe difluoromethylene group, as illustrated by the reaction of sodium methoxide with perfluoro-1-heptene in methanol [/2J (equation 6). 

Electrochemically generated trifluoromethyl radicals add to 1-hexyne to give a 1 4 mixture of ( )- and (Z)-l,l,l-trifluoro-2-heptene [22] Kinetic data on the addition of photochemically generated trifluoromethyl radicals to acetylene and substituted acetylenes were reported [2J]. Alcohols and aldehydes add to hexa-fluoro-2-butyne in the presence of peroxide and y-ray initiation [24] (equations 16 and 17). 

The formation of 88 is postulated to be occurring by the nucleophilic attack of a hydride ion (47), abstracted from the secondary amine, on the a-carbon atom of the iminium salt (89). The resulting carbonium ion (90) then loses a proton to give the imine (91), which could not be separated because of its instability (4H). In the case of 2-methyIhexamethylenimine, however, the corresponding dehydro compound /l -2-methylazacyclo-heptene (92) was isolated. The hydride addition to the iminium ion occurs from the less hindered exo side. 

Addition, acetic acid to bicyclo[2.2.1]-hepta-2,5-diene to give nortri-cyclyl acetate, 46, 74 1,2,3-benzothiadiazole 1,1-dioxide to cyclopentadiene, 47, 8 benzyne to tetraphenylcyclopentadie-none, 46,107 Br, F to 1-heptene, 46,10 carbon tetrachloride to olefins, 46, 106...

The anion of (Zs)-4-(diphenylphosphinyl)-6-methyl-2-heptene undergoes addition to 2-cyclopentenone and 2-methyl-2-cyclopentenone to give predominately yn-adducts3. 

The lithium enolates of cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone undergo addition-elimination to the 2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid ester of ( )-2-nitro-2-hepten-l-ol to give 2-(l-butyl-2-nitro-2-propenyl)cycloalkanones with modest diastereoselection. An analogous reaction of the enolate ion of cyclohexanone with the 2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid ester of (Z)-2-nitro-3-phenyl-2-propenol to give 2-(2-nitro-l-phenyl-2-propenyl)cyclohexanones was also reported. The relative configuration of these products was not however determined6. 

B. (Z)-l-Iodo-l-heptene.2 A solution of 8.52 g of (112 mmol) of borane-dimethylsulfide complex (Note 13) in 100 mL of ether is added to a flame-dried, three-necked, 300-mL, round-bottomed flask equipped with stirbar, temperature probe, and N2 inlet. The solution is cooled to 5°C with an ice-bath. Cyclohexene (18.4 g, 224 mmol) (Note 14) is then added by syringe over 10 min while keeping the temperature below 15°C. The mixture is stirred at 5°C for 15 min. A white solid precipitates either towards the end of the addition or during the subsequent stirring period. The reaction mixture is allowed to warm to room temperature and is stirred for 1 hr. The non-homogeneous solution is cooled to 2-3°C... 

Addition of CBr4 to a number of monomers including functional-substituted monomers (heptene-1, octene-1, styrene, and methylacrylate) has been performed in the presence of SmJ2 under mild conditions to give the adducts in high yield (ref. 4). 

The Nef reaction is accelerated by the presence of silicon atom at y-position of nitro functions, as shown in Eq. 6.3. The presence of the y-silicon is essential for such smooth reaction.6 The conversion of 5-nitrobicyclo[2.2.1]heptenes to the corresponding ketones via the Nef reaction is very complicated by the degradation of the product. Thus, (3-trimethylsilyl ketones can be prepared by a one-flask method via the addition of Grignard reagents containing trimethylsilyl groups to nitroalkenes and the subsequent hydrolysis, as shown in Eq. 6.4. 

Evidence for de novo synthesis of pheromone components was obtained by showing that labeled acetate and mevalonate were incorporated into ipsdienol by male Ips pini [103,104]. Similarly, labeled acetate and other labeled intermediates were shown to be incorporated into frontalin in a number of Dendroctonus species [105]. Possible precursors to frontalin include 6-methyl-6-hep-ten-2-one, which was incorporated into frontalin by D. ruffipennis [106]. The precursor 6-methyl-6-hepten-2-one also was shown to be converted to bre-vicomin in the bark beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae [107]. In addition, the expression patterns of HMG-CoA reductase and HMG-CoA synthase are tightly correlated with frontalin production in Dendroctonus jeffreyi [108, 109]. A geranyl diphosphate synthase cDNA from I. pini was also isolated, functionally expressed, and modeled [110]. These data indicate that the de novo isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway is present in bark beetles. A variety of other monoterpene alcohols such as myrcenol, pityol, and sulcitol are probably synthesized through similar pathways [111]... 

The behavior of members of the bicyclo[2.2.1]heptene family is also different from that of other common 1,2-disubstituted alkenes.230 The parent bicy-clo[2.2.1]heptene gives bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane in only 3.5% yield when it is treated with Et3SiH/TFA. The major product is reported to be a 2-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl trifluoroacetate of unspecified configuration (Eq. 70).230 The carbocation intermediate is presumably the 2-norbornyl cation. Addition of small amounts of boron trifluoride etherate to the reaction mixture causes the yield of hydrocarbon product to rise to 22% after a reaction time of 24 hours at room temperature. Further... 

Production of chemicals became increasingly important. The recovery of oxygenates from the Fischer-Tropsch aqueous product was expanded to include niche chemicals, such as 1-propanol.45 Ethylene and propylene extraction was increased and even supplemented by the addition of a high-temperature catalytic cracker.46 Linear a-olefin extraction units for the recovery of 1-pentene, 1-hexene, and 1-octene were added to the refinery,45-47 and a new facility for the extraction of 1-heptene and its... 

The formation of multinuclear clusters is much more favorable for rhodium than for cobalt. Additional evidence was obtained in comparative hydroformylation rate studies of 1-heptene and of cyclohexene at 75°C and 150 atm 1/1 H2/CO (19). For the acyclic olefin the kinetics followed the kinetic expression (except at low olefin) ... 

One mole of isoprene reacted with one mole of acetoacetate by using a bidentate phosphine as ligand (56). Reaction of 2,3-dimethylbutadiene with acetoacetate was carried out by using PdCl2 in the presence of sodium phenoxide. When PPh3 was used, a 1 2 adduct was obtained. On the other hand, use of P-phenyl-l-phospha-3-methyl-3-cyclopentene (105) at 100°C caused the 1 1 addition to give 3-carbomethoxy-5,6-dimethyl-5-hepten-2-one (106), from which 5,6-dimethyl-5-hepten-2-one (107) was formed. This compound is the useful intermediate for a-irone synthesis (96).
