Stereoselective Pinacol Coupling of (Propargyl aldehyde)Co2(CO)6 Complexes

Abstract: Propargyl aldehyde complexes, (RC⋮CCHO)Co2(CO)6 (1a−c; R = Ph, Me, H), undergo pinacol coupling with a variety of reductants, exclusively giving syn (dl)-diacetylenic diol complexes 2a−c. The X-ray structures of 2a and 2c have been determined. The free diol syn-PhC⋮C−CH(OH)CH(OH)−C⋮CPh (4a) is obtained efficiently from its cobalt complex 2a upon treatment with (NH4)2Ce(NO3)6.

“…High syn diastereoselectivity has also been observed in the SmI 2 -promoted dimerizations of other similar organometallic aldehydes, such as ferrocenecarboxaldehyde, 25,26 (benzaldehyde)Cr(CO) 3 , 25 (di- enal)Fe(CO) 3 complexes, 25 and (propargyl aldehyde)Co(CO) 6 complexes. 27 Stereoselectivity in SmI 2 -promoted pinacolization has been described as arising from binding of the Sm III ketyl to the unreduced second aldehyde prior to C-C bond formation and the subsequent second reduction. 25 Aldehyde 10 could be converted to its benzyl imine (13), which underwent reductive dimerization with SmI 2 to form diamine 14 (Scheme 4), albeit in diminished yield (44%) and with poor (1.1:1) diastereoselectivity, again, as expected from the literature.…”

“…While transition metal complexes based on palladium (0) [23] nickel(0), [24] and ruthenium(II) [25] are known to facilitate the ATC reaction of alkyl halides, catalytic developments for a prop- argylic variation have been scarce. The sole literature example using a transition metal catalyst is a recent study that employed Fe(II), specifically dppf (1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene), as a catalyst for the cyclization of allyl and propargyl chlorides (44) in trifluorotoluene at 120°C, the propargyl chlorides giving exocyclic allene-bearing pyrrolidines (45) in moderate yields (Scheme 11). [26] The iron sandwich compound was selected in order to discourage oxidative addition and subsequent formation of an allyl-metal species.…”

“…[43] Nicholas et al have developed a stereoselective pinacol coupling using propargyl aldehyde-cobalt complexes. [44] The aldehyde cobalt complexes undergo pinacol coupling with various reductants giving syn (dl)-acetylenic diol-cobalt complexes which on treatment with (NH 4 ) 2 Ce(NO 3 ) 6 decomplexes the cobalt to furnish diols (Table 5). A single pinacol diaster-eomer (syn) was isolated in all instances, and the yields of 92 are moderate and are independent of the substrate complex or the reductant used.…”

“…Hence, by protecting the reactive triple bond of the acetylene compounds with the octacarbonyldicobalt, many kinds of reactions such as reductions, 122 -124 Friedel-Crafts reactions, 122,125 rearrangements, 126 fluorinations, 127 1,3dipolar cycloaddition reactions, 128 Grignard reactions, 129 hydrolyses, 130 oxidations, 131 amidations, 131 pinacol coupling reactions, 132 carbonylative cyclizations, 133 metathesis 134 and radical reactions, 135 have been reported. These many reactions with ocatacarbonyldicobalt for protection of the reactive acetylene triple bond have been applied in organic syntheses.…”
