First catalytic and green synthesis of aryl-(Z)-vinyl chlorides and its plausible addition-elimination mechanism

(Chemical Equation Presented) Via a catalytic cycle in the presence of scandium triflate (2 mol %)/DMF (1 mol %)/benzoyl chloride (5 mol %), aromatic ketones were treated with bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate (BTC) to afford aryl-(Z)-vinyl chlorides. All metal triflates tested in the reaction showed highly catalytic activity. A plausible addition-elimination mechanism was proposed. The present work describes the first catalytic and green route to the synthesis of aryl-(Z)-vinyl chlorides.

Convenient synthesis of aryl-substituted halo olefins from aromatic ketones and acetyl halides in the presence of silica gel-supported zinc halides

A simple and efficient procedure has been developed for the synthesis of aryl-substituted chloro and bromo olefins from aromatic ketones and acetyl halides in the presence of silica gel-supported zinc halides. The Z-isomer is selectively formed.
