A serendipitously discovered palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction with diorganozinc reagents, which displays broad functional group compatibility, is reported. This novel transformation hinges on a remarkable ligand effect which overrides the standard "umpolung" reactivity of allyl-palladium intermediates in the presence of dialkylzincs. Owing to its mild conditions, enantioselective allylic alkylations of racemic allylic electrophiles are possible in the presence of sensitive functional groups.

The mechanism of palladium(0)-catalyzed allylic substitution has been investigated with the aim of finding whether or not the intermediate (π-alryl)palladium complexes can arise in a syn fashion as an alternative to the well known anti-mechanism. Using (diphenylphosphino)acetate as a leaving group and stereochemically biased substrates 30b and 35b evidence for the syn stereochemistry has been acquired (30b → 31 and 35b → 36). This reversal of stereochemistry is facilitated by severe steric congestion in the starting allylic esters (which impairs the ordinary anti-mechanism) and is boosted by the pre-coordination of the Pd(0) reagent to the leaving group. The latter effect apparently lowers the activation entropy. With cyclohexene derivatives 10b, 18b, and 19b and acyclic substrate 25b, where steric hindrance does not operate, the anti-mechanism producing η3-complexes dominates even for (diphenylphosphino)acetates. At elevated temperature, rapid equilibration of η3-complexes (13 ? 14 and 20 ? 21) has been observed prior to the reaction with a nucleophile. This effect has been attributed to the presence of (diphenylphosphino)acetate ion acting as a ligand for palladium.

A method of studying transition-state structures by analysis of volumetric steric effects is proposed.The method is used to reveal features of the steric structure of the transition state in Diels-Alder reactions.The structure has been found to change from one approximating the structure of the prereactional complex to that resembling the half-chair adduct as the diene substituent changes from methyl to t-butyl.As this takes place, no intermediate half-boat adduct is formed.An increase in steric hindrance during the change in the substituent is regarded as the driving force responsible for the transition-state shift along the reaction co-ordinate.This is consistent with the Hammond postulate.The C=O and C=C groups of the dienophile in the endo-transition state are in the s-cis-conformation.

Trans-o-4-Menthen-8-ol and cis- and trans-o-5-menthen-8-ols have been prepared via the Diels-Alder reactions of 1,3-butadiene with crotonaldehyde in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate, and piperylene with methyl acrylate, respectively.The dehydration reactions of these alcohols have been studied in the presence of acetic anhydride and potassium bisulfate; the latter reagent demonstrates a high reaction selectivity.
