Palladium complexes acetate

Acetyl chlotide is reduced by vatious organometaUic compounds, eg, LiAlH (18). / fZ-Butyl alcohol lessens the activity of LiAlH to form lithium tti-/-butoxyalumium hydtide [17476-04-9] C22H2gA102Li, which can convert acetyl chlotide to acetaldehyde [75-07-0] (19). Triphenyl tin hydtide also reduces acetyl chlotide (20). Acetyl chlotide in the presence of Pt(II) or Rh(I) complexes, can cleave tetrahydrofuran [109-99-9] C HgO, to form chlorobutyl acetate [13398-04-4] in about 72% yield (21). Although catalytic hydrogenation of acetyl chlotide in the Rosenmund reaction is not very satisfactory, it is catalyticaHy possible to reduce acetic anhydride to ethylidene diacetate [542-10-9] in the presence of acetyl chlotide over palladium complexes (22). Rhodium trichloride, methyl iodide, and ttiphenylphosphine combine into a complex that is active in reducing acetyl chlotide (23). 

Seven procedures descnbe preparation of important synthesis intermediates A two-step procedure gives 2-(HYDROXYMETHYL)ALLYLTRIMETH-YLSILANE, a versatile bifunctional reagent As the acetate, it can be converted to a tnmethylenemethane-palladium complex (in situ) which undergoes [3 -(- 2] annulation reactions with electron-deficient alkenes A preparation of halide-free METHYLLITHIUM is included because the presence of lithium halide in the reagent sometimes complicates the analysis and use of methyllithium Commercial samples invariably contain a full molar equivalent of bromide or iodide AZLLENE IS a fundamental compound in organic chemistry, the preparation... 

Diphenylimidazole with palladium acetate forms the cyclometallated complex 80 (X = OAc) (97AOC491). The acetate group is replaced by chloride or bromide when 80 (X = OAc) reacts with sodium chloride or lithium bromide, respectively, to give 80 (X = C1, Br). Bromide with diethyl sulfide forms the mononuclear complex 81. Similar reactions are known for 1 -acetyl-2-phenylimidazole (96JOM(522)97). 1,5-Bis(A -methylimidazol-2-yl)pen-tane with palladium(II) acetate gives the cyclometallated complex 82 (OOJOM (607)194). 

Dimethylbenzimidazolium iodide serves as a starting material for free carbenes (99CEJ1931, 99JA10626, 00AGE541) and carbene complexes (99JOM(585)241). Thus, with palladium(II) acetate it gives [L Pdl ] where L is... 

Dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolium iodide with palladium acetate yields the carbene adduct 182 (97JOM(530)259). Under water it undergoes cis-trans isomerization to 183. Some other derivatives were reported in 1981 (81BCSJ800). 1,1 -Methylenebis(4-alkyl-l,2,4-triazolium)diiodides (alkyl = /-Pr, n-Bu, octyl) with palladium(II) acetate give the mononuclear complexes [L Pdl ] (99EJIC1965), where L2= l,l -methylenebis(4-R-l,2,4-triazol-2-ylidene) (R = /-Pr, n-Bu, octyl). Thermolysis of the products in THF gives the rran -dinuclear complexes 184... 

Methylphenyl)benzothiazole (80IC762) and 2-benzylbenzothiazole (95ICA(239)125) can be cyclopalladated. In the latter case, cylopalladation occurs upon reaction with palladium(II) acetate and gives the product 80. With lithium chloride, sodium bromide, or sodium iodide, a series of three products of substitution of the acetate group 81 (X = C1, Br, I) results. Pyridine, 2- and 3-methylpyridine, 2,6- and 3,5-dimethylpyridine cause the transformation of the chelate complexes 81 (X = C1, Br, I) and formation of the mononuclear products 82 (R = z= R" = = R = H, X = Cl, Br, I ... 

A catalytic amount of a reactive palladium(0)-complex 3 (i.e. PdLa in the catalytic cycle scheme shown below) is likely to be formed when the palladium(ll) acetate 2 oxidizes a small amount of the alkene ... 

Palladium(II) acetate reacts with N,N, N"-triphenylguanidine ( = HTpg) in warm benzene to form a bis-adduct which, under more forcing conditions, converts to the novel dinuclear guanidinate-bridged complex [Pd(/L-Tpg)... 

Another difference between the two mechanisms is that the former involves 1,2 and the latter 1,3 shifts. The isomerization of 1-butene by rhodium(I) is an example of a reaction that takes place by the metal hydride mechanism, while an example of the TT-allyl complex mechanism is found in the Fe3(CO)i2 catalyzed isomerization of 3-ethyl-l-pentene. " A palladium acetate or palladium complex catalyst was used to convert alkynones RCOCSCCH2CH2R to 2,4-alkadien-l-ones RCOCH= CHCH = CHCHR. ... 

Helquist et al. [129] have reported molecular mechanics calculations to predict the suitability of a number of chiral-substituted phenanthrolines and their corresponding palladium-complexes for use in asymmetric nucleophilic substitutions of allylic acetates. Good correlation was obtained with experimental results, the highest levels of asymmetric induction being predicted and obtained with a readily available 2-(2-bornyl)-phenanthroline ligand (90 in Scheme 50). Kocovsky et al. [130] prepared a series of chiral bipyridines, also derived from monoterpene (namely pinocarvone or myrtenal). They synthesized and characterized corresponding Mo complexes, which were found to be moderately enantioselective in allylic substitution (up to 22%). 

Nucleophilic Substitution of xi-Allyl Palladium Complexes. TT-Allyl palladium species are subject to a number of useful reactions that result in allylation of nucleophiles.114 The reaction can be applied to carbon-carbon bond formation using relatively stable carbanions, such as those derived from malonate esters and (3-sulfonyl esters.115 The TT-allyl complexes are usually generated in situ by reaction of an allylic acetate with a catalytic amount of fefrafcz s-(triphenylphosphine)palladium... 

A palladium catalyst with a less electron-rich ligand, 2,2-dipyridyl-methylamine-based palladium complexes (4.2), is effective for coupling of aryl iodides or bromides with terminal alkynes in the presence of pyrrolidine and tetrabutylammonium acetate (TBAB) at 100°C in water.37 However, the reactions were shown to be faster in NMP solvent than in water under the reaction conditions. Palladium-phosphinous acid (POPd) was also reported as an effective catalyst for the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction of aryl alkynes with aryl iodides, bromides, or chlorides in water (Eq. 4.18).38... 

Palladium complexes are effective catalysts for the reductive cydization of enyne substrates [53,54], The first report of catalytic cydization of 1,6- and 1,7-enynes 115a,b to cyclopentane 116a and cyclohexane 116b derivatives appeared in 1987 (Eq. 19) [70]. The authors proposed that the Pd(II) species 117 forms by oxidative addition of acetic acid to Pd(0) (Scheme 25). Complex 117 hydrometallates the alkyne to give 118, which cyclizes to provide... 

In a related study, Srivastava and Collibee employed polymer-supported triphenyl-phosphine in palladium-catalyzed cyanations [142]. Commercially available resin-bound triphenylphosphine was admixed with palladium(II) acetate in N,N-dimethyl-formamide in order to generate the heterogeneous catalytic system. The mixture was stirred for 2 h under nitrogen atmosphere in a sealed microwave reaction vessel, to achieve complete formation of the active palladium-phosphine complex. The septum was then removed and equimolar amounts of zinc(II) cyanide and the requisite aryl halide were added. After purging with nitrogen and resealing, the vessel was transferred to the microwave reactor and irradiated at 140 °C for 30-50 min... 

Palladium catalyzed reaction of aryl halides and olefins provide a useful synthetic method for C-C bond formation reaction [171, 172], The commonly used catalyst is palladium acetate, although other palladium complexes have also been used. A sol-vent-free Heck reaction has been conducted in excellent yields using a household MW oven and palladium acetate as catalyst and triethylamine as base (Scheme 6.51) [173], A comparative study revealed that the longer reaction times and deployment of high pressures, typical of classical heating method, are avoided using this MW procedure. 

The catalyst reported by Drent [48] was generated in situ by mixing a palladium source with the ligand. A palladium source is broadly defined as a complex or any form of palladium metal whereby upon mixing with the ligand an active catalyst is formed. Many palladium sources are possible, but the sources exemplified by Drent aretris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0)(Pd2(dba)3),bis(dibenzylideneacetone) palladium(O) (Pd(dba)2), or palladium(II) acetate. 

The main path of the palladium-catalyzed reaction of butadiene is the dimerization. However, the trimerization to form /j-1, 3,6,10-dodeca-tetraene takes place with certain palladium complexes in the absence of a phosphine ligand. Medema and van Helden observed, while studying the insertion reaction of butadiene to 7r-allylpalladium chloride and acetate (32, 37), that the reaction of butadiene in benzene solution at 50°C using 7r-allylpalladium acetate as a catalyst yielded w-1,3,6,10-dodecatetraene (27) with a selectivity of 79% at a conversion of 30% based on butadiene in 22 hours. 

Octatriene reacts further with butadiene in acetic acid by using 7r-allylic palladium complex as catalyst to give a mixture of acyioxydo-decatrienes (54). 

Palladium-catalyzed oxidation of 1,4-dienes has also been reported. Thus, Brown and Davidson28 obtained the 1,3-diacetate 25 from oxidation of 1,4-cyclohexadiene by ben-zoquinone in acetic acid with palladium acetate as the catalyst (Scheme 3). Presumably the reaction proceeds via acetoxypalladation-isomerization to give a rr-allyl intermediate, which subsequently undergoes nucleophilic attack by acetate. This principle, i.e. rearrangement of a (allyl)palladium complex, has been applied in nonoxidative palladium-catalyzed reactions of 1,4-dienes by Larock and coworkers29. Akermark and coworkers have demonstrated the stereochemistry of this process by the transformation of 1,4-cyclohexadiene to the ( r-allyl)palladium complex 26 by treatment... 

As mentioned in the introduction, 7T-complexes of conjugated dienes with palladium(II) are not stable enough to be isolated. However, reaction of a conjugated diene with PdCl2 in alcoholic solvents or acetic acid gives a (TT-allyl)palladium complex 27 in which the... 

In a stoichiometric reaction the 6jr-allyl)palladium complex 66 was isolated and characterized5815. In a subsequent reaction the jr-allyl complex was reacted with benzoquinone in acetic acid to give an allylic acetate, which was hydrolyzed and oxidized to theaspirone. Interestingly, a quite high diastereoselectivity for the turns methyl isomer was obtained in the palladium-mediated spirocyclization (equation 28). 

Addition of ketene silyl acetals to aldehydes and ketones is also mediated by achiral palladium(ll) acetate-diphosphine complexes (Equation (109)).46S,46Sa Although the precise mechanism is still unclear, high catalytic activity may be ascribed to the intermediacy of palladium enolates.
