Effect of Substituents on Carbanion Stability K 1. Hybridization In almost all areas of organometallic chemistry the primary subdivision of reactivity types is by the hybridization of the C-M carbon atom (methyl/alkyl, vinyl/aryl, alkynyl). A key second subdivision is the presence of conjugating substituents (allyl/allenyl/propargyl/benzyl). The fractional s-character of the C-H bonds has a major effect on the kinetic and thermodynamic acidity of the carbon acid. Only s-orbitals have electron density at the nucleus, and a lone pair with high fractional s character has its electron density closer to the nucleus, and is hence stabilized. This can be easily seen in the gas-phase acidity of the prototypical C-H types, ethane, ethylene and acetylene, as well as for cyclopropane, where the hybridization of the C-H bond is similar to that in ethylene. CH3-CH3 CH2=CH2 HC≡CH ΔH°acid (kcal/mol) 420 411 406 375 These effects are also clearly evident in solution, with terminal acetylenes and highly strained hydrocarbons easily metalated by strong bases. Li n-BuLi JACS-72-7735 2. Inductive Effects Electron-withdrawing substituents will inductively stabilize negative charge on nearby carbons. These effects are complex, since electronegative substituents interact with carbanions in other ways as well (e.g. O and F substituents have lone pairs, which tend to destabilize adjacent carbanion centers).

Conjugation - π Delocalization Delocalization of negative charge, especially onto electronegative atoms, provides potent stabilizations of carbanionic centers. Since almost all conjugating substituents are also more electronegative than H or CH 3, there is usually a significant inductive contribution to the stabilization. O O N CH4 CH3 H H C H t-BuO pKa (DMSO) ~55 43 26.5 30.3 31.3 A special case is the aromatic stabilization of cyclopentadienide and related indenide and fluorenide anions (Huckel 4n + 2 π electron rule) . pKa (DMSO) 18.0 20.1 22.6 30.1 The aromatic anions (6e π system) show a level of stabilization far above that of normal conjugated systems ΔH°acid (kcal/mol) 356.1 373.9 H K 4. Second and Third Row Element Effects ("d-orbital" effects) All measures of acidity show that there is an unusual level of carbanion stabilization for all second row elements (Cl, S, P, Si, as well as higher elements) when these are bonded to a carbanion center. 6 3 10 0.25 300 CH CH3 CH3 CH3 0.013 CH3 S O N Kinetic acidity 0.25 330 500 14 Isotopic exchange 0.45 24 1 0.2 KNH2/NH3 0.41 6 0.25 0.07 O X Me OMe OPh SPh SePh Bordwell J.

Reducing energy consumption and emissions is a continuous challenge for the asphalt industry. Previous studies have focused on the reduction of emissions without characterizing their composition, and detailed characterization of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in asphalt fumes is scarce. This communication describes the characterization and evaluation of VOCs and SVOCs from asphalt mixtures prepared at lower production temperatures using natural zeolite; in some cases, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) was used.

Sci., 2012, 3, 2899 www.rsc.org/chemicalscience MINIREVIEW Catalytic enantioselective carbon-carbon bond formation using cycloisomerization reactions Iain D. G. Watsona and F. Dean Toste*b Received 30th April 2012, Accepted 7th June 2012 DOI: 10.1039/c2sc20542d This review describes important recent advancements in asymmetric cycloisomerization reactions. A wide variety of catalytic and asymmetric strategies have been applied to these reactions over the past twenty years. Cycloisomerization reactions have the ability to produce diverse polycyclic compounds in excellent yields and selectivity. They constitute a powerful and efficient strategy for asymmetric carbon- carbon bond formation in cyclic compounds. Enyne and related olefin cyclizations comprise the majority of reactions of this type and important advances have recently occurred in this area. However, significant changes have also occurred in the area of classical cyclization as well as intramolecular hydroacylation and C–H activation initiated cyclization and these will also be described. 1 Introduction The purpose of this review is to describe important new advances in asymmetric cycloisomerization reactions. In partic- The synthesis of rings is central to the art of organic synthesis. ular, this review will focus on enantioselective carbon-carbon Cyclic compounds abound in chemistry, from strained three bond forming cycloisomerizations. Many aspects of cyclo- membered rings to macrocyclic monsters. A common synthetic isomerization reactions have already been reviewed,3 including challenge is the creation of a ring within a certain target mechanistic4 and asymmetric aspects of the reaction.5 This compound.

  • Elimination Reactions Are Described
    Introduction In this module, different types of elimination reactions are described. From a practical standpoint, elimination reactions widely used for the generation of double and triple bonds in compounds from a saturated precursor molecule. The presence of a good leaving group is a prerequisite in most elimination reactions. Traditional classification of elimination reactions, in terms of the molecularity of the reaction is employed. How the changes in the nature of the substrate as well as reaction conditions affect the mechanism of elimination are subsequently discussed. The stereochemical requirements for elimination in a given substrate and its consequence in the product stereochemistry is emphasized. ELIMINATION REACTIONS Objective and Outline beta-eliminations E1, E2 and E1cB mechanisms Stereochemical considerations of these reactions Examples of E1, E2 and E1cB reactions Alpha eliminations and generation of carbene I. Basics Elimination reactions involve the loss of fragments or groups from a molecule to generate multiple bonds. A generalized equation is shown below for 1,2-elimination wherein the X and Y from two adjacent carbon atoms are removed, elimination C C C C -XY X Y Three major types of elimination reactions are: α-elimination: two atoms or groups are removed from the same atom. It is also known as 1,1-elimination. H R R C X C + HX R Both H and X are removed from carbon atom here R Carbene β-elimination: loss of atoms or groups on adjacent atoms. It is also H H known as 1,2- elimination. R C C R R HC CH R X H γ-elimination: loss of atoms or groups from the 1st and 3rd positions as shown below.

  • Application of Complex Aldol Reactions to the Total Synthesis of Phorboxazole B
    J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 10033-10046 10033 Application of Complex Aldol Reactions to the Total Synthesis of Phorboxazole B David A. Evans,* Duke M. Fitch,1 Thomas E. Smith, and Victor J. Cee Contribution from the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, HarVard UniVersity, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 ReceiVed June 29, 2000 Abstract: The synthesis of phorboxazole B has been accomplished in 27 linear steps and an overall yield of 12.6%. The absolute stereochemistry of the C4-C12,C33-C38, and C13-C19 fragments was established utilizing catalytic asymmetric aldol methodology, while the absolute stereochemistry of the C20-C32 fragment was derived from an auxiliary-based asymmetric aldol reaction. All remaining chirality was incorporated through internal asymmetric induction, with the exception of the C43 stereocenter which was derived from (R)-trityl glycidol. Key fragment couplings include a stereoselective double stereodifferentiating aldol reaction, a metalated oxazole alkylation, an oxazole-stabilized Wittig olefination, and a chelation-controlled addition of the fully elaborated alkenyl metal side chain. Introduction and HT29 (3.31 × 10-10 M), as well as leukemia CCRF-CBM (2.45 × 10-10 M), prostate cancer PC-3 (3.54 × 10-10 M), and Phorboxazoles A (1)andB(2) are marine natural products breast cancer MCF7 cell lines (5.62 × 10-10 M).2b In addition isolated from a recently discovered species of Indian Ocean to this impressive anticancer activity, phorboxazoles A and B sponge (genus Phorbas sp.) near Muiron Island, Western also exhibit potent in vitro antifungal activity against Candida Australia.2 These substances are representative of a new class albicans and Saccharomyces carlsbergensis at 0.1 µg/disk in of macrolides differing only in their C hydroxyl-bearing 13 the agar disk diffusion assay.2a stereocenters.
