Development of a Scalable Lanthanide Halide/Quaternary Ammonium Salt System for the Nucleophilic Addition of Grignard Reagents to Carbonyl Groups and Application to the Synthesis of a Remdesivir Intermediate

This manuscript describes the development and implementation of a scalable additive system, consisting of a lanthanide salt and a solubilizing quaternary ammonium salt, to improve the yield and robustness of the addition of an organomagnesium reagent to a

Observation of 1,3-diketones formation in the reaction of bulky acyl chlorides with methyllithium

The formation of 1,3-diketones was observed in the reactions of bulky acyl chlorides with methyllithium. The reaction products depend on the steric hindrance around the carbonyl group of the acyl chloride and the electronic effect of the group(s) linked to the carbonyl. When the steric hindrance around the carbonyl group of the acyl chloride is big enough, the 1,3-diketone is the only product. In the case of the moderate hindrance around the carbonyl group of the acyl chloride, a moderate yield of 1,3-diketone is obtained and some tertiary alcohol is generated. When there is no steric hindrance around the carbonyl group of the acyl chloride, the tertiary alcohol is the only product. When the steric hindrance around the carbonyl group is moderate and an electron-donating group is connected to the carbonyl of the acyl chloride, all three products-ketone, 1,3-diketone and tertiary alcohol-can be isolated from the reaction mixture after long reaction times.

Solutions of anhydrous lanthanide salts and its preparation

The present invention relates to anhydrous solutions of MX 3 €￠z LiA in a solvent, wherein M is a lanthanide including lanthanum, or yttrium or indium; z > 0; and X and A are independently or both monovalent anions, preferably Cl, Br or I. The solution is readily prepared by dissolving or suspending MX 3 or its hydrate and z equiv LiA in water or hydrophilic solvents, or mixtures thereof, removing the solvent under vacuum and dissolving the resulting powder in another solvent. The solution of MX 3 €￠z LiA can advantageously be used e.g. in addition reactions of Grignard reagents to ketones and imines. Even the catalytic use of MX 3 €￠z LiA is possible. Also claimed are a method for preparing the anhydrous solutions, the use of such solution in a chemical reaction and chemical compositions MX 3 €￠z LiA, with M, z, X and A as indicated above.

How does organic structure determine organic reactivity? The effect of ortho-dimethyl groups on the nucleophilic substitution and alkene-forming elimination reactions of ring-substituted cumyl derivatives

The addition of a pair of ortho-methyl groups to ring-substituted cumyl derivatives to give the corresponding 2,6-dimethylcumyl derivatives X-1-Y leads to modest (5-fold) changes in the observed rate constant for reaction in 50:50 (v:v) trifluoroethanol-

Ortho Methyl Group Effects in Cumyl Systems

In an attempt to evaluate the steric effect of ortho methyl groups on the stability of the cumyl radical, 2,2',4,4',6,6'-hexamethylazocumene (6) was synthesized and its rate of decomposition was measured.The fact that 6 decomposes 40 times faster than azocumene is attributed to a ground state steric effect.Calculations on the mesitylcumyl radical 1 and cation 2 show both systems to be substantially nonplanar with dihedral angles of 48 deg and 35 deg, respectively.Calculated charge distributions for cation 2 corroborate previously obtained NMR results which showed substantial loss of charge delocalization.

Chemoselective Addition of Organotitanium Reagents to Carbonyl Compounds

The conversion of classical carbanions such as RMgX, RLi, or deprotonated nitriles, sulfones, and carboxylic esters into titanium analogs results in reagents which add chemoselectively to carbonyl compounds in the presence of other functional groups.The standard titanating agent is chlorotriisopropoxytitanium (1).Grignard-type reactions and aldol additions are aldehyde-selective in the presence of ketones.Other functional groups such as alkyl and aryl halides, esters, amides as well as nitro and cyano moieties are tolerated.Discrimination between two aldehydes or two ketones is also possible.Replacing alkoxy ligands by methyl groups at titanium increases reactivity dramatically, relative rates increasing in the series CH3Ti(OCHMe2)3 (CH3)2Ti(OCHMe2)2 (CH3)4Ti.The latter reagent and its zirconium analog methylate sterically hindered and/or enolizable ketones which normally fail to undergo Grignard reactions.The ate complex H2C=CHCH2Ti(OCHMe2)4MgCl (63) is aldehyde-selective, while the amino analog H2C=CHCH2Ti(NMe2)4MgCl (64) adds selectively to ketones in the presence of aldehydes.
