Zirconocene-catalyzed alkylative dimerization of 2-methylene-1,3-dithiane via a single electron transfer process to provide symmetrical vic-bis(dithiane)s

A mixture of tertiary alkyl halide and 2-methylene-1,3-dithiane was treated with butylmagnesium bromide in the presence of a catalytic amount of zirconocene dichloride. The reaction resulted in alkylative dimerization to yield the corresponding vic-bis(dithiane). The reaction would proceed as follows. A single electron transfer from low-valent zirconocene to alkyl halide would generate the corresponding alkyl radical. The radical adds to 2-methylene-1,3-dithiane to afford the corresponding radical stabilized by the two sulfur atoms. A couple of the stable radicals finally undergo dimerization.

Silver-catalyzed benzylation and allylation of tertiary alkyl bromides with organozinc reagents

Silver salts catalyze the benzylation and allylation of tertiary alkyl bromides with organozinc reagents. The reactions create quaternary carbon centers efficiently. Treatment of gem-dibromoalkanes with benzylic or allylic zinc reagents under silver catalysis leads to dibenzylation or diallylation. The functional-group compatibility of the present reactions is wider than that of the previous reactions with Grignard reagents.

THE TITANOCENE METHYLENE-ZINC HALIDE COMPLEX: A CONVENIENT SYNTHESIS AND ITS METHYLENATING ACTION ON UNSATURATED CARBON CENTERS

The titanocene methylene-zinc halide complex, which can be conveniently prepared by treating titanocene dichloride with methylenezinc iodide in THF solution, readily methylenates ketones, nitriles, and alkynes.
