The first Ru(II)-catalyzed arylation of substrates without a directing group was recently developed. Remarkably, this process only worked in the presence of a benzoate additive, found to be crucial for the oxidative addition step at Ru(II). However, the exact mode of action of the benzoate was unknown. Herein, we disclose a mechanistic study that elucidates the key role of the benzoate salt in the C-H arylation of fluoroarenes with aryl halides. Through a combination of rationally designed stoichiometric experiments and DFT studies, we demonstrate that the aryl-Ru(II) species arising from initial C-H activation of the fluoroarene undergoes cyclometalation with the benzoate to generate an anionic Ru(II) intermediate. The enhanced lability of this intermediate, coupled with the electron-rich anionic Ru(II) metal center renders the oxidative addition of the aryl halide accessible. The role of an additional (NMe4)OC(CF3)3 additive in facilitating the overall arylation process is also shown to be linked to a shift in the C-H pre-equilibrium associated with benzoate cyclometalation.

A process for the preparation of optionally asymmetric acetal compounds, comprising reacting a compound containing a hydroxyl group with a vinylether compound in the presence of a zwitterionic catalyst including at least one basic nitrogen containing structural fragment and at least one sulfonic acid group in its structure, with the proviso that the basic nitrogen on sulfonic acid molar ratio is 1 over 1.
Tertiary aromatic amine accelerators in acrylic resin

, (2008/06/13)
Tertiary aromatic amines derived from aminoglutethimide or para-aminophenylacetic acid act as accelerators for the peroxide catalyzed polymerization of acrylic resins, especially methacrylates, acrylates and unsaturated polyesters. The amines are characte
