Organometallic Lewis Acids, Part LXII. Chiral Carbonyl-Cyclopentadienyl-Triphenylphosphine-Iron and -Ruthenium Complexes with Tertiary Nitriles [CpM(CO)(PPh3)(N≡C–CR1R2R3)]+ BF4–

A series of tertiary nitriles was synthesized by alkylation of acetonitrile, primary and secondary nitriles, using alkylbromides and sodium amide in liquid ammonia. By reaction of the in situ formed organometallic Lewis acids [CpM(CO)(PPh3)]su

An Iodine-Catalyzed Hofmann-L?ffler Reaction

Iodine reagents have been identified as economically and ecologically benign alternatives to transition metals, although their application as molecular catalysts in challenging C-H oxidation reactions has remained elusive. An attractive iodine oxidation catalysis is now shown to promote the convenient conversion of carbon-hydrogen bonds into carbon-nitrogen bonds with unprecedented complete selectivity. The reaction proceeds by two interlocked catalytic cycles comprising a radical chain reaction, which is initiated by visible light as energy source. This unorthodox synthetic strategy for the direct oxidative amination of alkyl groups has no biosynthetic precedence and provides an efficient and straightforward access to a general class of saturated nitrogenated heterocycles.

Wanderungstendenzen cyclischer, polycyclischer und methylverzweigter Alkylreste bei der Beckmann-Umlagerung

The migration aptitudes of polycyclic bridgehead groups, cycloalkyl groups as well as of β-, γ- and δ-branched alkyl groups in the Chapman variant of the Beckmann rearrangement were determined.From these data it is concluded that at transition state 2 the migrating group is not resembling a planarised carbenium ion R+, but rather a pentacoordinated carbonium ion structure.Because only small geometrical changes occur in the migrating group vertical stabilisation of charge at transition state is believed to have significant influence on the migration aptitudes.
