In situ NMR study of the rhodium(I)-catalyzed hydrogenation of the allene 1-methoxy-propa-1,2-diene using parahydrogen

The homogeneous hydrogenation of 1-methoxy-propa-1,2-diene was investigated via in situ 1H-NMR spectroscopy using different rhodium(I) catalysts and parahydrogen (p-H2). The detected polarization signals allow the determination of the hydrogenation products due to their characteristic patterns.

KINETICS OF THE THERMAL GAS-PHASE DECOMPOSITION OF METHOXYCYCLOPROPANE

In the temperature range 635-694 K, 70-80 percent of the methoxycyclopropane decomposing initially results in the formation of the isomerization products(E)- and (Z)-1-methoxyprop-1-ene and 3-methoxyprop-1-ene.THe residual decomposition results from approximately equal contributions from methyl-oxygen bond fission and the subsequent radical abstraction reactions.THe isomerization products are formed by homogeneous, non-radical, unimolecular pathways with high-pressure rate constants given by the equations k/s-1 = 1013.29+/-0.75 exp(-226.5+/-9.5kJ mol-1/RT) and k(3-methoxyprop-1-ene)/s-1 = 1014.0+/-1.1exp(-254+/-14 kJ mol-1/RT).The methoxy group lowers the activation energy for opening the cyclopropane ring adjacent to the point of substitution by ca. 45 kJ mol-1.
