Vinylcarbene-cyclopropene isomerization

In principle, the vinylcarbene-to-cyclopropene isomerization is reversible. While this has not been reported for 167 (where ring-opening could produce not only alkenyl(sulfonyl)carbene 166, but also the isomeric l-alkenyl(silyl)carbene), it was found that 1-trimethylsilylcyclopropenone acetal 168 (equation 49) by thermal ring-opening yields the (trimethylsilyl)vinylcarbene 169 besides traces of the isomeric vinylcarbene 170. Both carbenes are obviously nucleophilic since they are able to cyclopropanate the... [Pg.745]

Alkinyloxy)diazoacetic esters 11 give rise to product mixtures that could be separated only partially. The isolated products result from a tandem intramolecular cyclopropenation/cyclopropene —> vinylcarbene isomerization (12, 14) and from a twofold intermolecular (3+2)-cycloaddition of the intact diazo compound (13). [Pg.58]

Interestingly, copper(I) salts also catalyze the cyclopropene-vinylcarbene isomerization [681]. In this case the transient carbene complexes again show electrophilic behavior, behavior similar to that of the complexes formed from copper(I) salts and diazoalkanes or sulfonium ylides. [Pg.119]

As discussed in Section 3.1.6, cyclopropenes can react with rhodium complexes [38,585,587-589,1061,1063] or other transition metal derivatives to yield vinylcarbene complexes (see Section 3.1.6). This reaction will proceed particularly smoothly with strained cyclopropenes, because these can already isomerize thermally to vinylcarbenes [1064]. Hence the formation of vinylcarbene complexes from alkynes can proceed by initial cyclopropanation, followed by reaction of the resulting cyclopropene with the complex L,M. [Pg.176]

Vinylcarbene is also regarded as an intermediate in the catalytic isomerization of cyclopropene in the presence of [CuCl P(OPh)3 ]. 3-Methyl-3-cyclopropylcyclopropene (83a) and 3,3 dicyclo-propylcyclopropene (83b) react with cyclopentene derivatives under die influence of CuCl/P(OPh)3 to yield cntfo-vinylcyclopropane derivatives (84 equation 37) in 55-72% yields. 3-Methoxycarbonyl-l-propylcyclopropene also reacts with noibomadiene in the presence of CuCl to give the corresponding vinylcarbene adducts in 60% yield. [Pg.1198]

The photochemical isomerization of the parent system 1 to cyclopropene (2) was first detected in an argon matrix at 8 K. The allene photoisomerizations most likely involve singlet intermediates employing benzene as a triplet sensitizer leads to complex mixtures containing structurally completely different isomers. A two-step mechanism whereby hydrogen migrates first to the central allene carbon atom, followed by either cyclization or a second 1,2-hydrogen shift from a vinylcarbene intermediate, accounts for the overall features of the allene cyclization. ... [Pg.2746]

In this case, all the products are primary and the disappearance of cyclopropene follows first-order kinetics with = 29.8 kcal mol, and an entropy of activation of — 17.8 eu. The reaction is thought to occur via ring opening to isomeric vinylcarbenes, but the large negative entropy of activation is not consistent with simple ring opening. [Pg.2783]

The kinetics of the isomerization in tetrachloroethene at 413-433 K show an E/ of 25 1 kcal mol an enthalpy of activation of 24 + 1 kcal moP and an entropy of activation of — 22.4 eu. Changing the solvent to benzonitrile does not increase the rate and is consistent with a nonpolar transition state such as a vinylcarbene, but the entropy value indicates a more concerted mechanism. Indenes were also produced when a solution of the cyclopropene in cyclohexane was heated with copper stearate at 60 C for 30 minutes or when a solution in dichloromethane was heated with trifluoracetic acid, or when 1,3,3-triphenylcyclopropene was treated with [(C2H4)PtCl2]2- Reactions catalyzed by rhodium(I) heptafluorobutanoate have also been reported. ... [Pg.2826]

While the cyclopropene complexes mentioned so far were prepared by reaction of a cyclopropene with a reactive metal reagent, complexes 17 a and b were prepared by reaction of the carbene complexes 15 a and b, respectively, with phenylethyne (16) at — 80°C. Compound 17a isomerizes easily to give a vinylcarbene complex above — 40 C, whereas 17b is reported to be slightly more stable. [Pg.2862]

Finally there are a number of papers dealing with photoreactions of diaryl-cyclopropenes and arylindenes, which formally involve migration of a carbon group from the side-chain to the ortho-position of an aromatic ring. An example of the basic reaction is the formation of indenes when 1,3-diphenylcyclopropenes (199) are irradiated directly. Now it is shown that isomeric indenes are formed when the reaction is carried out in the presence of 9,10-dicyanoanthracene, and an electron-transfer mechanism is invoked to account for the change of product. In a separate paper concerned largely with intramolecular photocycloaddition reactions, cyclopropenes (199 R = allyl) are reported to give both types of indene on direct irradiation, via the normally postulated vinylcarbene intermediate. The... [Pg.392]

Cyclopropene undergoes a thermal isomerization to propyne with log k = 13.25 - 37 400/2.37 r and to allene with log k = 13.25-43 400/23RT The simplest reaction pathway would appear to be Cl-C3 cleavage to a biradical, which is also vinylcarbene, followed by a vicinal hydrogen shift from C2 to either C3 or Cl, respectively (Scheme 4.2). [Pg.20]
