Addition of α-halocarboxylic acid esters to para-substituted benzaldehydes in the presence of pentacarbonyliron

Pentacarbonyliron promotes addition of α-halocarboxylic acid esters at the carbonyl group of benzaldehyde and its para-substituted analogs. The substituent in the benzene ring strongly affects the process.

(Z)-α-haloacrylates: An exceptionally stereoselective preparation via Cr(II)-mediated olefination of aldehydes with trihaloacetates

(Z)-α-Fluoro-, (Z)-α-chloro-, and (Z)-α-bromoacrylates were obtained with unprecedented yield and stereocontrol (>99%) via addition of the corresponding commercial trihaloacetates to aldehydes at room temperature using stoichiometric Cr(II) salts or catal

Chain Reactions Induced by Cathodic Reduction

Cathodic reduction of a system comprising carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and an aldehyde led to an effective anionic chain reaction.The best current efficiency observed was about 1*104 percent .Such a chain reaction is an effective synthetic method for 1,1,1-trichloro-2-alkanols.The reaction system consisting of methyl trichloroacetate, methyl dichloroacetate, and an aldehyde and several other systems also exhibited a similar pattern of chain reaction.
