REACTION OF BENZYL CHLORIDE WITH PROPYLENE AND TRIFLUOROPROPENE UNDER METALLOCOMPLEX INITIATION CONDITIONS

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00961302

The reaction of benzyl chloride with propylene and 3,3,3-trifluoropropene in the presence of Fe(CO)5 + DMF were studied.With propylene, the reaction stops at the addition stage with the simulteneous formation of dibenzyl.In the case of 3,3,3-trifluoropropene, a telomerization takes place, whereby the second growing radical practically completely isomerizes with a 1,5-migration into the radical .To confirm the structure of the isolated compounds, chromato-mass-spectrometry and 13C NMR were used.
