Hydrides dicarbonyl

Experimental Procedure 2.1.3. Preparation of an Iron Carbene Complex by a-Abstraction of Hydride Dicarbonyl(T 5-cyclopentadienyl)(phenylthiocarbene) iron hexafluorophosphate [179]... 

In situ HPIR asymmetric hydroformylation. Under actual catalytic conditions, high pressures, low concentrations, at 65°C and 10 bar, the IR spectra were measured. They revealed strong carbonyl absorptions at 1988 and 1944 cm , characteristic of the mononuclear hydride dicarbonyl complex, and only weak carbonyl absorptions at 1745 and 1724 cm , due to a small quantity of the dinuclear complex. The substrate was then added and the hydroformylation reaction was monitored. The absorptions corresponding to RhH(BDPP)(CO)2 are retained throughout the reaction indicating that the hydride is the resting state under these standard hydroformylation conditions (see Chapter 4), at least for BDPP [55]. 

Alkenes in (alkene)dicarbonyl(T -cyclopentadienyl)iron(l+) cations react with carbon nucleophiles to form new C —C bonds (M. Rosenblum, 1974 A.J. Pearson, 1987). Tricarbon-yi(ri -cycIohexadienyI)iron(l-h) cations, prepared from the T] -l,3-cyclohexadiene complexes by hydride abstraction with tritylium cations, react similarly to give 5-substituted 1,3-cyclo-hexadienes, and neutral tricarbonyl(n -l,3-cyciohexadiene)iron complexes can be coupled with olefins by hydrogen transfer at > 140°C. These reactions proceed regio- and stereospecifically in the successive cyanide addition and spirocyclization at an optically pure N-allyl-N-phenyl-1,3-cyclohexadiene-l-carboxamide iron complex (A.J. Pearson, 1989). 

The final variation of the Feist-Benary furan synthesis encompasses reactions of 1,3-dicarbonyls with 1,2-dibromoethyl acetate (52). For example, treatment of ethyl acetoacetate (9) with sodium hydride followed by addition of 52 at 50°C yields dihydrofuran 53. The product can be easily converted into the corresponding 2-methyl-3-furoate upon acid catalyzed elimination of the acetate, thus providing another strategy for the synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted furans. 

Reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with IVJV-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal followed by malonamide in the presence of sodium hydride gives 5,6-disubstituted 1,2-dihydro-2-oxopyridine-3-carboxamides, whereas reaction of the intermediate enamines with cyanothioacetamide or cyanoacetamide in the presence of piperidine provides 2-thioxopyridine-3-carboxamides and 4,5-disubstituted l,2-dihydro-2-oxopyridine-3-carboxamides, respectively <95S923>. P-Enaminonitriles 14 react with p-ketoesters and alkyl malonates, in the presence of stoichiometric amounts of tin(IV) chloride, to afford 4-aminopyiidines 15 and 4-amino-2-pyridones 16 <95T(51)12277>. 

In the presence of a very strong base, such as an alkyllithium, sodium or potassium hydride, sodium or potassium amide, or LDA, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds can be converted to their dianions by two sequential deprotonations.79 For example, reaction of benzoylacetone with sodium amide leads first to the enolate generated by deprotonation at the more acidic methylene group between the two carbonyl groups. A second equivalent of base deprotonates the benzyl methylene group to give a dienediolate. 

The xanthene-backbone derived diphosphines (129) also led to well-defined rhodium dicarbonyl hydride complexes. They were used in one-phase catalysis and two-phase separation after careful acidification of the system.415... 

A complementary method was reported 3 years later by Hino, in which a readily enolizable diketopiperazine 48 was directly converted to the epidisulfide by deprotonation with sodium hydride and exposure to sulfur monochloride [38]. As with the Trown method, this method was limited to a specific class of substrates, namely, ones possessing a 1,3-dicarbonyl motif at each of the reactive centers, yet it has also seen subsequent applications in total synthesis [39, 40]. In 1972, Schmidt was able to significantly broaden the scope of the enolate thiolation method by introducing elemental sulfur as the electrophilic agent [41]. In contrast to Hino s method in which formation of a highly reactive, unstable adduct requires readily... 

In none of the cases discussed above is molecular hydrogen involved. The first report of the stoichiometric reduction of coordinated carbon monoxide by molecular hydrogen is that published by Bercaw et al. (35, 36). They reported that mononuclear carbonyl and hydride complexes of bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)zirconium are capable of promoting stoichiometric H2 reduction of CO to methoxide under mild conditions. Thus, treatment of the dicarbonyl complex (rj5-C5Me5)2Zr(CO)2 with... 

The reduction to methoxy-hydrido species (7) is thought to proceed via loss of CO from the dicarbonyl complex followed by addition of hydrogen to give the dihydrido carbonyl species (9). The next step suggested (37) is hydride transfer to the carbonyl carbon to give a formyl species in which both the carbonyl carbon and the carbonyl oxygen coordinate to the metal center, i.e., 10 ... 

Iridium hydride complexes effectively catalyze addition of nitriles or 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (pronucleophiles) to the C=N triple bonds of nitriles to afford enamines.42S,42Sa Highly chemoselective activation of both the a-C-H bonds and the C=N triple bonds of nitriles has been observed (Equation (72)). To activate simple alkane dinitriles, IrHs(P1Pr3)2 has proved to be more effective (Equation (73)). The reaction likely proceeds through oxidative addition of the a-C-H bonds of pronucleophiles to iridium followed by selective insertion of the CN triple bonds to the Ir-C bond. 

In the case of BDPP with a bite angle of 90°, the high-pressure NMR and high-pressure IR studies showed the structures of the hydrido dicarbonyl diphosphine resting state as an axial-equatorial BPT. Similar behavior was observed for the furanoside diphosphines. Dinuclear rhodium species in equilibrium with the mononuclear pentacoordinate rhodium hydride carbonyl diphosphines have been found for these ligands. The position of this equilibrium depends on the hydrogen concentration and the ligands. The rate... 

To understand how to control process conditions to give methyl, 4-pentadienoate, the reaction mechanism must be examined. (See Equation 2.). -palladium hydride elimination from 4 gives rise to trans and cis-methyl penta-, 4-dienoate which is the desired monocarbonylation intermediate for sebacic acid. The desired mono-carbonylation reaction is promoted by low carbon monoxide pressure ( 1000 psig) while high pressure (1800 psig) gives excellent 1,4-dicarbonylation product yield. The mono-carbonylation reaction is also facilitated by using a Lewis Acid as a co-catalyst and iodide as the preferred palladium counter-ion (Table III.). Chloride is the preferred palladium counter-ion for 1,4-dicarbonylation. 

The hydride complexes [MoH(CO)2(chel)2]+ (chel = variety of chelating diphosphines and arsines) are prepared by protonation of the parent Mo° dicarbonyls and appear to have a monocapped octahedral structure in solution, with the fluxional hydride moving around the possible capping positions. This process has been extensively studied by NMR.65 A number of other cationic seven-coordinate analogues [MoX(CO)2(chel)2]+ (X = halide or pseudohalide chel = chelating ligand usually phosphine or arsine) are also known (Table 5).la... 

A systematic investigation of the copper-catalyzed reaction between 2-bromobenzoic acid and the anions of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds has established the optimum conditions for the direct arylation of the /3-dicarbonyl moiety (75T2607). The use of sodium hydride as the base and copper(I) bromide as catalyst is recommended. The absence of a protic solvent ensures that competitive attack on the bromobenzoic acid by a solvent-derived base leading to a salicylic acid is eliminated. For larger scale reactions the addition of toluene offers some practical advantages. 

Tributyltin hydride, 316 Tributyltinlithium, 319 Trichloroacetonitrile, 321 Other carbohydrates (Diethylamino)sulfur trifluoride, 110 Triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate, 44 Carbonates (see also Enol carbonates) Carbon dioxide, 65 Di-/-butyl dicarbonate, 94 Carboxylic acids (see also Dicarbonyl compounds, Unsaturated carbonyl compounds)... 

The catalytic dicarbonylation of ethylene to dimethyl succinate can be carried out in 90% conversion.94 High reaction temperatures and low carbon monoxide pressures can lead to unsaturated esters as a result of a faster -hydride elimination from the intermediate (23) than carbon monoxide insertion. This later reaction path has been termed oxidative carboxylation.
