A study of the advantages of using manganese, an inexpensive and nontoxic metal, to perform stereoselective β-elimination reactions and to promote sequential olefination reactions of aldehydes to obtain α,β- unsaturated esters and amides is presented. Various elimination reactions, all of them characterized by occurring with complete stereoselectivity and in high yields, were performed using active manganese (Mn*) as metalating agent. This ability of manganese has been applied to develop a novel and direct synthesis of (E)-α,β-unsaturated esters or amides and (Z)-α,β-unsaturated α-halo esters and α-choroamides through a Mn*-mediated sequential olefination protocol of aldehydes with dichloro esters or amides and trihalo esters or trichloroamides, respectively.

Stereoselective synthesis of (Z)-α-haloacrylic acid derivatives, and (Z)-haloallylic alcohols from aldehydes and trihaloesters or amides promoted by Rieke manganese

A Mn*-promoted sequential process directed toward the synthesis of (Z)-α-halo-α,β-unsaturated esters or amides is described. In both cases, the process takes place with complete Z-stereoselectivity. In addition, (Z)-α-chloro-α,β-unsaturated ketones and carboxylic acids, and (Z)-haloallylic alcohols were readily prepared from (Z)-α-halo-α,β-unsaturated amides derived from morpholine, or esters. A mechanism has been proposed to explain the sequential process and the stereoselectivity observed. The Royal Society of Chemistry.
