Tuning the regioselectivity of (benzimidazolylmethyl)amine palladium(II) complexes in the methoxycarbonylation of hexenes and octenes

Reactions of N-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-ylmethyl-2-methoxy)aniline (L1) and N-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-ylmethyl-2-bromo)aniline (L2) with p-TsOH, Pd(AOc)2 and two equivalents of PPh3 or PCy3 produced the corresponding palladium comp

First examples of the selective carbonylation of C6-C10 linear alkanes to tertiary carbonyl-containing compounds

The carbonylation of C6-C10 n-alkanes with CO in the presence of CBr4·2A1Br3 at -40°C and 1 atm CO leads to the products of non-destructive carbonylation, i.e., the esters of tertiary carboxylic acids, R1/

Deamination Reactions, 44. Decomposition of 1-Alkylcyclopropanediazonium Ions

1-Methyl- (17), 1,2-dimethyl- (41, 44), 1-propyl- (64), 1-(1-methylethyl)cyclopropanediazonium ions (80), and -1-diazonium ions (93) have been generated by alkaline cleavage of the analogous nitrosocarbamates in methanol.Cyclopropyl-allyl transformation and nucleophilic displacement were the only reactions of 17, 41, 44, and 93 while elimination and 1,2-shifts of an α-hydrogen compete increasingly with 64 and 80.The stereochemistry of ring cleavage and nucleophilic displacement has been explored, using 2-D labels in the case of 17 and 93.Cyclopropanediazonium ions (1) and 41 react stereospecifically, 17 and 44 are moderately stereoselective (ca. 85:15), and 93 is entirely unselective.The data indicate a gradual changeover from concerted to stepwise mechanisms.Appreciable stabilization of the positive charge is required to reach the SN1 extreme.
