Efficient partial hydrogenation of trichloromethyl to gem-dichloromethyl groups in platinum on carbon-catalyzed system

Add time:07/14/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

While gem-dichloromethyl groups can be directly synthesized by the mono-dechlorination of the corresponding trichloromethyl groups, the suppression control of the over-reduction to form chloromethyl or methyl functionalities is quite difficult. We have established the efficient and widely applicable mono-dechlorination method of the trichloromethyl groups to form the corresponding gem-dichloromethyl groups using platinum on carbon in dimethylacetamide as a specific solvent at 25 °C under a hydrogen atmosphere. The mono-dechlorination of the α,α,α-trichloromethylcarbonyl groups smoothly proceeded by the use of platinum on carbon as a catalyst in a highly chemoselective manner, while the efficient mono-dechlorination of the alkyl- and aryl-trichloromethyl groups required the combined use of Bu3SnH.
