Iodobenzene, reaction

In the case of 4-iodochlorobenzene, oxidative addition occurred exclusively at the carbon-iodine bond, and the chlorine-carbon bond was unreactive toward the nickel powder. In this particular reaction, the effect of varying the halide of the nickel salt reduced was examined. There was essentially no difference in the yield of the reaction in the series NiC, NiBr2, or Nil2. This effect was not studied in detail for the other iodobenzene reactions but most probably would have been the same. 

Under conditions in which benzene and its homologues were nitrated at the zeroth-order rate, the reactions of the halogenobenzenes ([aromatic] = c. o-1 mol 1 ) obeyed no simple kinetic law. The reactions of fluorobenzene and iodobenzene initially followed the same rates as that of benzene but, as the concentration of the aromatic was depleted by the progress of the reaction, the rate deviated to a dependence on the first power of the concentration of aromatic. The same situation was observed with chloro- andjbromo-benzene, but these compounds could not maintain a zeroth-order dependence as easily as the other halogenobenzenes, and the first-order character of the reaction was more marked. 

More typically its reactions showed an intermediacy of kinetic order like that observed with fluorobenzene or iodobenzene in nitromethane. 

As a typical example, the catalytic reaction of iodobenzene with methyl acrylate to afford methyl cinnamate (18) is explained by the sequences illustrated for the oxidative addition, insertion, and /3-elimination reactions. 

Chlorobenzene reacts with alkenes with bimetallic catalyses of Ni and Pd. Chlorobenzene is converted in situ into iodobenzene (14) by the Ni-cataiyzed reaction of Nal at 140 "C. NiBr2, rather than the Ni(0) complex, is found to be a good catalyst. Then the Pd-catalyzed reaction of the iodobenzene with acrylate takes place) 15]. 

The reaction of iodobenzene with acrylate is a good synthetic method for the cinnamate 17[7]. In the competitive reaction of acrylate with a mixture of 0-and /i-iodoanisoles (18 and 19), the o-methoxycinnamate 20 was obtained selectively owing to the molecular recognition by interlamellar montmorillonite ethylsilyldiphenylphosphine (L) as a heterogenized homogeneous catalyst used as a ligand[28]. 

The coupling of 1,8-diiodonaphthalene (25) with acenaphthylene (26) affords acenaphth[l,2-a]acenaphthylene (27). It should be noted that the reaction involves unusual trans elimination of H—Pd—1[32], This tetrasubstituted double bond in 11 reacts further with iodobenzene to give the [4, 3, 3]propellane 28 in 72%. This unusual reaction may be accelerated by strain activation, although it took 14 days[33]. 

Vinyl acetate reacts with the alkenyl triflate 65 at the /3-carbon to give the 1-acetoxy-1,3-diene 66[68]. However, the reaction of vinyl acetate with 5-iodo-pyrimidine affords 5-vinylpyrimidine with elimination of the acetoxy group[69]. Also stilbene (67) was obtained by the reaction of an excess of vinyl acetate with iodobenzene when interlamellar montmorillonite ethylsilyl-diphenylphosphine (L) palladium chloride was used as an active catalyst[70]. Commonly used PdCl2(Ph3P)2 does not give stilbene. 

The reaction of the o-iodophenol 275 with an alkylallene affords the bcnzo-furan derivative 276[184], Similarly, the reactions of the 6-hydroxyallenes 277 and 279 with iodobenzene afford the tetrahydrofurans 278 and 280. Under a CO atmosphere, CO insertion takes place before the insertion of the allenyl bond, and a benzoyl group, rather than a phenyl group, attacks the allene carbon to give 280. Reaction of iodobenzene with 4,5-hexadienoic acid (281) affords the furanone derivative 282[185]. 

Allenes also react with aryl and alkenyl halides, or triflates, and the 7r-allyl-palladium intermediates are trapped with carbon nucleophiles. The formation of 283 with malonate is an example[186]. The steroid skeleton 287 has been constructed by two-step reactions of allene with the enol trillate 284, followed by trapping with 2-methyl-l,3-cyclopentanedione (285) to give 286[187]. The inter- and intramolecular reactions of dimethyl 2,3-butenylmalonate (288) with iodobenzene afford the 3-cyclopentenedicarboxylate 289 as a main product) 188]. 

The reaction of 1,2-heptadiene with iodobenzene in the absence of nucleophiles affords 2-phenyl-l,3-heptadiene (290) by /J-elimination of the 7r-allylpal-ladiuni intermediate) 182]. 

Many examples of insertions of internal alkynes are known. Internal alkynes react with aryl halides in the presence of formate to afford the trisubstituted alkenes[271,272]. In the reaction of the terminal alkyne 388 with two molecules of iodobenzene. the first step is the formation of the phenylacetylene 389. Then the internal alkyne bond, thus produced, inserts into the phenyl-Pd bond to give 390. Finally, hydrogenolysis with formic acid yields the trisubstituted alkene 391(273,274], This sequence of reactions is a good preparative method for trisubstituted alkenes from terminal alkynes. 

The Li compound 588 formed by the ort/io-lithiation of A. A -dimethylaniline reacts with vinyl bromide to give the styrene derivative 589(433]. The 2-phe-nylindole 591 is formed by the coupling of l-methyl-2-indolylmagnesium formed in situ from the indolyllithium 590 and MgBr2, with iodobenzene using dppb[434]. 2-Furyl- and 2-thienyllithium in the presence of MgBr2 react with alkenyl halides[435]. The arylallenes 592 and 1,2,4-alkatrienes are prepared by the coupling reaction of the allenyllithium with aryl or alkenyl halides[436]. 

The arylation of the i-tributyistannyl glycai 717 offers a synthetic route to chaetiacandin[585,586]. The Pd-catalyzed reactions of the 3-stannylcyclobute-nedione 718 with iodobenzene, and benzoyl chloride[S87], and alkenylation with alkenyl(phenyl)iodonium triflates proceed smoothly by the co-catalysis by Cul[588,589],... 

The transmetallation of lithio derivatives with either magnesium bromide or zinc chloride has been employed to increase further their range of synthetic application. While the reaction of l-methyl-2-pyrrolyllithium with iodobenzene in the presence of a palladium catalyst gives only a poor yield (29%) of coupled product, the yield can be dramatically improved (to 96%) by first converting the lithium compound into a magnesium or zinc derivative (Scheme 83) (81TL5319). 

Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl substituted boron complexes arc obtamed by the reaction of the pentamethylcyclopentadienyl anion with boron tnfluonde [109] (Table 27) Similarly, the Gngnard reagent prepared from 3,5-bis(tnfluorometh-yl)iodobenzene reacts with sodium tetrafluoroborate to form the phase-transfer eatalyst 2 under anhydrous eonditions [110] (equation 87)... 

A synthesis for the enantiomerically pure 535 was developed starting with D-phenylalanine which upon reaction with methyl chloroformate gave 528 whose reaction with methoxylamine afforded 529. Cyclization with bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodobenzene in presence of trifluoroacetic acid gave the tetrahydroquinoline derivative 530 which was demethoxylated to give 531. Treatment of 531 with either benzyl chloroformate or... 

The reaction mixture is then stirred very vigorously and boiled at such a rate that the nitrobenzene condenses in the upper third of the air-cooled reflux condenser and flows back in an almost steady stream. The water formed in the reaction passes over, together with a small amount of nitrobenzene and iodobenzene, and is condensed by the water-cooled condenser. This distillate is freed of water by shaking with a small quantity of sodium sulfate and returned at intervals through the separatory funnel to the reaction flask. Heating is continued for about twenty-four hours or until the reaction is complete, as is evidenced by the non-evolution of water (Note 5). 

Che et al. have reported the use of iodobenzene diacetate as an alternative to lead tetraacetate in the original Rees-Atkinson reactions of a relatively narrow range of olefin substrates (primarily styrenes) [11]. 

It was mentioned earlier (Sec. 8.6) that for iodo-de-diazoniation no catalyst is necessary because the redox potential of the iodide ion (E° = 1.3 V) is sufficient for an electron transfer to the arenediazonium ion. The reaction was actually observed by Griess (1864 c). Four iodo-de-diazoniation procedures are described in Organic Syntheses. For the syntheses of iodobenzene and 4-iodophenol (Lucas and Kennedy, 1943, and Daines and Eberly, 1943, respectively) KI is used in equimolar quantity and in 1.2 molar excess. However, for 2-bromoiodobenzene and for 1,3,4-triiodo-5-nitrobenzene (replacement of a diazonio group in the 4-position by iodine), up to... 

The major by-products in this reaction are iodobenzene and iodosobenzene diacetate. An excess of 20 ml. of peracetic acid over the 65 ml. recommended results in an increase in the amount of iodobenzene. Both impurities are removed from the product by washing with chloroform. 

A similar approach was carried out reacting an enohzable ketone with amides in the presence of the hypervalent iodine(III) reagent (hydroxy(tosyl-oxy)iodobenzene, HDNIB) [48]. The reaction was carried out imder solvent-...
