All 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker ADVANCE III 500 MHz spectrometer in deuterium solvents with tetramethylsilane (TMS) as internal standard. NMR multiplicities are abbreviated as follows: s = singlet, d = doublet, t = triplet, q = quartet, sept = septet, m = multiplet, br = broad signal. Chemical shifts are given in ppm and are referenced to TMS (1H, 13C). All spectra were obtained at 25 °C in the solvent indicated. Coupling constants J are given in Hz. GC analyses were performed on Agilent 6890 instrument with FID detector using an HP-5 capillary column (30 m x 0.32 mm (i.d.), 0.25 ). High-resolution mass spectra were recorded in the EI mode on Waters GCT Premier TOF MS. Reactions rates were acquired by Mettler-Toledo ReactIR™15 with iC IR software. Melting points were determined on BUCHI M-565 apparatus. Single crystal X-ray diffraction data were collected on a Bruker Apex II CCD detector using Mo-Kradiation ( = 0.71073 Å). Flash column chromatography was performed on neutral silica gel (200-300 mesh) with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether as eluent. All solvents were used after dried and distillation. N-heterocycle carbene copper chlorides (NHCCuCl) were synthesized according to the reported methods.1 All bases were commercial available and used directly. Most terminal alkynes were commercial available and used directly. Alkyne 1e was prepared through Pd-catalyzed coupling between 2,6-dibromobenzene and 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol, followed by the basic cleavage of the protecting group.2 1p,3 1q,3 and 1j4 were prepared through Pd- catalyzed coupling of the corresponding aryl bromide and (trimethylsilyl)acetylene and following desilylations.5 5f was synthesized starting from phenol and 5- chloropentyne.6 Alkyl sulfonate esters were synthesized from the corresponding alcohols according to the literature procedures.7 2. General procedure for Cu-catalyzed alkylations of terminal alkynes 3 The Young tube was charged with IMesCuCl (20.2 mg, 5 mol%), t-AmONa (165 mg, 1.5 mmol) and CH2Cl2 (3 mL). Then, terminal alkyne (1 mmol) and alkyl triflates (1.5 mmol) were added. After stirring the resultant mixture at 40 oC for 12 h, the solvent was removed in vacuo and the desired product was isolated by column chromatography. For aliphatic alkynes, the reactions were conducted as the similar procedure with 10 mol% of IMesCuCl as the catalyst. 3.

When using DMF and THF, the yield dropped substantially (entry 3 and 4). Then, in dichloromethane, changing the base to a stronger one, such as tBuONa, increased the yield of the cross-coupling product 3a to 51% (entry 8). To our delight, using tAmONa instead led to the desired product 3a in up to 76% yield (entry 9), presumably due to the better solubility of tAmONa in dichloromethane. Unfortunately, exploring other bases gave clear detrimental effects (entries 5-7). On switching to other NHC ligands, IPr and SIMes had only marginal effects on the reaction (entry 10 and 11). Notably, IMes clearly proved to be superior with a good GC yield of 84% and 76% isolated (entry 12). Other generally used cuprous salts CuI and CuCl were also tested, which delivering lower yield to 60% and 38%, respectively (entry 13 and 14). Meanwhile, a control experiment without the addition of copper was remarkably inhibited (entry 15) 4.

ABSTRACT The click cycloaddition reaction of azides and alkynes affording 1,2,3-triazoles is a transformation widely used to obtain relevant products in chemical biology, medicinal chemistry, materials science and other fields. In this work, a set of Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADESs) as “active” reaction media has been investigated in the copper-catalysed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reactions (CuAAc). The use of these green liquids as green and catalytic solvents has shown to improve the reaction effectiveness, giving excellent yields. The NADESs proved to be “active” in this transformation for the absence of added bases in all the performed reactions and in several cases for their reducing capabilities. The results were rationalized by DFT calculations which demonstrated the involvement of H-bonds between DESs and alkynes as well as a stabilization of copper catalytic intermediates.

  • Introduction to Alkenes and Alkynes in an Alkane, All Covalent Bonds
    Introduction to Alkenes and Alkynes In an alkane, all covalent bonds between carbon were σ (σ bonds are defined as bonds where the electron density is symmetric about the internuclear axis) In an alkene, however, only three σ bonds are formed from the alkene carbon -the carbon thus adopts an sp2 hybridization Ethene (common name ethylene) has a molecular formula of CH2CH2 Each carbon is sp2 hybridized with a σ bond to two hydrogens and the other carbon Hybridized orbital allows stronger bonds due to more overlap H H C C H H Structure of Ethylene In addition to the σ framework of ethylene, each carbon has an atomic p orbital not used in hybridization The two p orbitals (each with one electron) overlap to form a π bond (p bonds are not symmetric about the internuclear axis) π bonds are not as strong as σ bonds (in ethylene, the σ bond is ~90 Kcal/mol and the π bond is ~66 Kcal/mol) Thus while σ bonds are stable and very few reactions occur with C-C bonds, π bonds are much more reactive and many reactions occur with C=C π bonds Nomenclature of Alkenes August Wilhelm Hofmann’s attempt for systematic hydrocarbon nomenclature (1866) Attempted to use a systematic name by naming all possible structures with 4 carbons Quartane a alkane C4H10 Quartyl C4H9 Quartene e alkene C4H8 Quartenyl C4H7 Quartine i alkine → alkyne C4H6 Quartinyl C4H5 Quartone o C4H4 Quartonyl C4H3 Quartune u C4H2 Quartunyl C4H1 Wanted to use Quart from the Latin for 4 – this method was not embraced and BUT has remained Used English order of vowels, however, to name the groups

  • Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just Like an Alkene, Benzene Has Clouds of  Electrons Above and Below Its Sigma Bond Framework
    Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just like an alkene, benzene has clouds of electrons above and below its sigma bond framework. Although the electrons are in a stable aromatic system, they are still available for reaction with strong electrophiles. This generates a carbocation which is resonance stabilized (but not aromatic). This cation is called a sigma complex because the electrophile is joined to the benzene ring through a new sigma bond. The sigma complex (also called an arenium ion) is not aromatic since it contains an sp3 carbon (which disrupts the required loop of p orbitals). Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page1 The loss of aromaticity required to form the sigma complex explains the highly endothermic nature of the first step. (That is why we require strong electrophiles for reaction). The sigma complex wishes to regain its aromaticity, and it may do so by either a reversal of the first step (i.e. regenerate the starting material) or by loss of the proton on the sp3 carbon (leading to a substitution product). When a reaction proceeds this way, it is electrophilic aromatic substitution. There are a wide variety of electrophiles that can be introduced into a benzene ring in this way, and so electrophilic aromatic substitution is a very important method for the synthesis of substituted aromatic compounds. Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page2 Bromination of Benzene Bromination follows the same general mechanism for the electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS). Bromine itself is not electrophilic enough to react with benzene. But the addition of a strong Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor), such as FeBr3, catalyses the reaction, and leads to the substitution product.

  • Chapter 7 - Alkenes and Alkynes I
    Andrew Rosen Chapter 7 - Alkenes and Alkynes I 7.1 - Introduction - The simplest member of the alkenes has the common name of ethylene while the simplest member of the alkyne family has the common name of acetylene 7.2 - The (E)-(Z) System for Designating Alkene Diastereomers - To determine E or Z, look at the two groups attached to one carbon atom of the double bond and decide which has higher priority. Then, repeat this at the other carbon atom. This system is not used for cycloalkenes - If the two groups of higher priority are on the same side of the double bond, the alkene is designated Z. If the two groups of higher priority are on opposite sides of the double bond, the alkene is designated E - Hydrogenation is a syn/cis addition 7.3 - Relative Stabilities of Alkenes - The trans isomer is generally more stable than the cis isomer due to electron repulsions - The addition of hydrogen to an alkene, hydrogenation, is exothermic (heat of hydrogenation) - The greater number of attached alkyl groups, the greater the stability of an alkene 7.5 - Synthesis of Alkenes via Elimination Reactions, 7.6 - Dehydrohalogenation of Alkyl Halides How to Favor E2: - Reaction conditions that favor elimination by E1 should be avoided due to the highly competitive SN 1 mechanism - To favor E2, a secondary or tertiary alkyl halide should be used - If there is only a possibility for a primary alkyl halide, use a bulky base - Use a higher concentration of a strong and nonpolarizable base, like an alkoxide - EtONa=EtOH favors the more substituted double bond

We use the reactions of alkenes as the vehicle to introduce this concept. 129 130 CHAPTER 5 Reactions of Alkenes and Alkynes 5.1 What Are the Characteristic Reactions of Alkenes? The most characteristic reaction of alkenes is addition to the carbon–carbon double bond in such a way that the pi bond is broken and, in its place, sigma bonds are formed to two new atoms or groups of atoms. Several examples of reactions at the carbon–carbon double bond are shown in Table 5.1, along with the descriptive name(s) associated with each.

  • Alkynes: Molecular and Structural Formulas
    Alkynes: Molecular and Structural Formulas The alkynes comprise a series of carbon- and hydrogen-based compounds that contain at least one triple bond. This group of compounds is a homologous series with the general molecular formula of C n H2 n--2 , where n equals any integer greater than one. The simplest alkyne, ethyne (also known as acetylene), has two carbon atoms and the molecular formula of C2H2. The structural formula for ethyne is In longer alkyne chains, the additional carbon atoms are attached to each other by single covalent bonds. Each carbon atom is also attached to sufficient hydrogen atoms to produce a total of four single covalent bonds about itself. In alkynes of four or more carbon atoms, the triple bond can be located in different positions along the chain, leading to the formation of structural isomers. For example, the alkyne of molecular formula C4H6 has two isomers, Although alkynes possess restricted rotation due to the triple bond, they do not have stereoisomers like the alkenes because the bonding in a carbon-carbon triple bond is sp hybridized. In sp hybridization, the maximum separation between the hybridized orbitals is 180°, so the molecule is linear. Thus, the substituents on triple-bonded carbons are positioned in a straight line, and stereoisomers are impossible Alkynes: Nomenclature Although some common alkyne names, such as acetylene, are still found in many textbooks, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) nomenclature is required for journal articles. The rules for alkynes in this system are identical with those for alkenes, except for the ending.

Received: 7 July 2018; Accepted: 27 July 2018; Published: 27 July 2018 Abstract: Regioselective anti-allylindation of alkynes was achieved using InBr3 and allylic silanes. Various types of alkynes and allylic silanes were applicable to the present allylindation. This sequential process used the generated 1,4-dienylindiums to establish novel synthetic methods for skipped dienes. The 1,4-dienylindiums were characterized by spectral analysis and treated with I2 to stereoselectively give 1-iodo-1,4-dienes. The Pd-catalyzed cross coupling of 1,4-dienylindium with iodobenzene successfully proceeded in a one-pot manner to afford the corresponding 1-aryl-1,4-diene. Keywords: indium; allylmetalation; alkyne; allylic silane 1. Introduction Carbometalation is an important synthetic method in organic synthesis because organometallic compounds are produced with an expansion of the carbon framework [1–7].
