Abstract:Nucleophilic addition to
(η3-2-chloropropenyl)palladium complexes
1 with stabilized
carbanions such as dialkyl malonates was studied. These complexes
are used as probes to
determine whether nucleophilic attack occurs at the central or terminal
carbon of the π-allyl
group. Attack at the central carbon leads to substitution of
chloride via a palladacyclobutane
intermediate. The regiochemistry of the reaction (central versus
terminal attack) is controlled
by proper choice of ligands. Thus, σ-donor ligands direct … Show more
“…All these results are in a good agreement with previously studied reactivity of (2-chloroallyl)palladium complexes [16], as well as with ligand screening in catalytic version of this reaction in ref. [10].…”
The first examples of -(2-fluoroallyl)palladium complexes were synthesised, isolated and characterized including chloride dimers, neutral chloride or cationic triflate comlexes bearing PPh3 or SPhos as the ligands. Preliminary reactivity patterns indicating strong dependence of the chemoselectivity on "hardness" of the nucleophile and the ligand type were studied.

“…[9]) and excellent results have been achieved on the aspects of isomer distributions [5,23] and substitution reactions (transition-state structure, [24] regioselectivity, and [25] electronic substituent effects [26] ). Complex 1, displaying as four different isomers in solution and in addition providing X-ray crystal data, was the most interesting target for quantum-chemical calculations.…”

“…[5] The existence of an intermediate palladocyclobutane was subsequently confirmed by isolation and X-ray structure determination [6] and additional experimental [7] and theoretical [8,9] studies concerning central versus terminal attack have been reported.

ortho‐Halobenzamides such as compound 1a react in the presence of allene and base with catalytic amounts of palladium(0) complexes to form cyclopropanes such as 3a. This reaction is believed to proceed via an intermediate palladacyclobutane and is the first example of a noncarbon nucleophile attack on the centre carbon of an (η3‐allyl)palladium complex leading, by reductive elimination, to cyclopropanes. The regiochemistry of the nucleophilic attack (central versus terminal carbon) depends on the nature of ligand and solvent as electron rich palladium complexes favour central carbon attack.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
