The reaction of the BH3-THF reagent with benchrotrenic alkenes, followed by a water addition and the formation of hydrogenated products are described. This formation and the regioselectivity observed is a consequence of the electron withdrawing effect of the Cr(CO)3 group.

Although the palladium-catalyzed Tsuji-Trost allylic substitution reaction has been intensively studied, there is a lack of general methods to employ simple benzylic nucleophiles. Such a method would facilitate access to "α-2-propenyl benzyl" motifs, which are common structural motifs in bioactive compounds and natural products. We report herein the palladium-catalyzed allylation reaction of toluene-derived pronucleophiles activated by tricarbonylchromium. A variety of cyclic and acyclic allylic electrophiles can be employed with in situ generated (η6-C 6H5CHLiR)Cr(CO)3 nucleophiles. Catalyst identification was performed by high throughput experimentation (HTE) and led to the Xantphos/palladium hit, which proved to be a general catalyst for this class of reactions. In addition to η6-toluene complexes, benzyl amine and ether derivatives (η6-C6H5CH 2Z)Cr(CO)3 (Z = NR2, OR) are also viable pronucleophiles, allowing C-C bond-formation α to heteroatoms with excellent yields. Finally, a tandem allylic substitution/demetalation procedure is described that affords the corresponding metal-free allylic substitution products. This method will be a valuable complement to the existing arsenal of nucleophiles with applications in allylic substitution reactions.

The tricarbonyl(cyclobutabenzene)chromium(0) complexes 12-20, have been prepared from the free ligand and triammin-tricarbonylchromium(0) or hexacarbonylchromium(0).The complexes have been characterized by spectroscopic methods (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR) and mass spectrometry, and 1H-NMR signal assignments have been verified by an NOE experiment.Diastereomeric ratios have been determined by 1H NMR and the diasteromers of the 1-methyl derivative 16 separated by HPLC.A crystal-structure analysis is presented for exo-16.A photochemical ligand exchange takes place in 70percent yield for the 1-trimethylsilyl derivative 19.Metalation with n-butyllithium/tmeda at -78 deg C has been observed only for aromatic and not for the benzylic protons.
