Grove,‡ Robert A. Gossage,‡ Jan W. Zwikker,§ Leonardus W. Jenneskens,§ Wiendelt Drenth,§ and Gerard van Koten*,‡ Debye Institute, Departments of Metal-Mediated Synthesis and Physical Organic Chemistry, Utrecht University, Padualaan 8, 3584 CH Utrecht, The Netherlands Received January 28, 1997X The addition reaction of polyhalogenated alkanes to alkenes (Kharasch addition reaction) is homogeneously catalyzed in the absence of O2 under mild reaction conditions (25 °C) by II the arylnickel complexes [Ni {C6H2(CH2NMe2)2-2,6-R-4}Br] (R ) H, MeC(O), Cl, MeO, NH2) and shows a high selectivity for the 1:1 adduct. Kinetic data on the catalytic system with [Ni{C6H3(CH2NMe2)2-2,6}Br] (R ) H; abbreviated as [Ni(NCN)Br]), methyl methacrylate, and CCl4 reveal a rate of reaction that is first order in nickel complex and in alkene. In our series of para-substituted arylnickel catalysts, the rate of catalysis increases with the electron donating character of the para substituents on the aryl ligand and this rate correlates directly with the NiII/NiIII redox potential. These data, together with separate spectroscopic studies and results from individual experiments employing other solvents, other polyhalogenated alkanes such as CBr4 and CF3CCl3 and other alkene substrates such as styrene, 1-octene, and cyclohexene, lead to the proposal of a catalytic cycle based on a nonchain mechanism with a mononuclear nickel species. Before or in the rate-determining step oxidation of the Ni(II) center to a d7 arylnickel(III) species occurs by a single electron transfer and halide transfer from the polyhalogenated alkane in an inner-sphere activated complex [Ni(NCN)- (µ-Cl)CCl4]. This step generates an organic radical intermediate which is proposed to stay in the coordination sphere of the metal where it reacts with the alkene. The reaction rate decreases with an increase in the steric congestion at the N-donor centers in derivatives of the [Ni(NCN)Br] catalyst (i.e., NMe2 > NEt2 > NMe(i-Pr) > NMe(t-Bu)). This behavior is consistent with the characteristics for an inner-sphere electron-transfer process. Selective 1:1 Kharasch product formation then results from a chain transfer in the Ni(III) coordination sphere by the reverse process, i.e., single electron transfer with concomitant halide transfer. Important conclusions of this study are that the initially active site of the catalyst is the Ni-X unit (X ) halide) and that activation of CCl4 occurs in the absence of a free coordination site.

  • Mechanistic Considerations on the Hydrodechlorination Process of Polychloroarenes
    Chapter 3 Mechanistic Considerations on the Hydrodechlorination Process of Polychloroarenes YoshiharuYoshiharu Mitoma, Mitoma, Yumi KatayamaYumi Katayama andand CristianCristian Simion Simion Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.79083 Abstract Defunctionalization of organochlorines through reductive dechlorination (also known as hydrodechlorination—replacement of chlorine atoms by hydrogen—is one of the main methodologies used in the detoxification of these harmful compounds. Most of the pub- lished papers on this particular matter focused on specific reagents, reaction conditions, and mainly result efficiency. Some of the authors were also concerned with reaction -path ways (e.g., the order in which chlorine atoms were removed from a polychlorinated aro- matic substrate—polychlorinated biphenyls, PCBs; polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, PCDDs; or polychlorinated dibenzofurans, PCDFs). However, the papers that dealt with the investigation of reaction mechanism were rather scarce. This chapter presents the advances made by researchers in understanding, from a mechanistic point of view, the hydrodechlorination process, along with our own assumptions. In doing so, it would be easier to predict the behavior of such compounds in a specific environment, showing more clearly the scope and limitations of each process, depending on the reaction condi- tions and reagents. Keywords: hydrodechlorination, reaction mechanism, metal/hydrogen donor 1. Introduction Most chlorinated and especially polychlorinated arenes (such as polychloro-dibenzo-p-diox- ins 1, polychloro-dibenzofurans 2, or polychlorobiphenyls 3) are persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that are harmful to both man and the environment [1–5]. © 2016 The Author(s).

  • 2.1 the 18-ELECTRON RULE the 18E Rule1 Is a Way to Help Us Decide
    30 GENERAL PROPERTIES OF ORGANOMETALLIC COMPLEXES 2.1 THE 18-ELECTRON RULE The 18e rule1 is a way to help us decide whether a given d-block transition metal organometallic complex is likely to be stable. Not all the organic formulas we can write down correspond to stable species. For example, CH5 requires a 5-valent carbon and is therefore not stable. Stable compounds, such as CH4,have the noble gas octet, and so carbon can be thought of as following an 8e rule. This corresponds to carbon using its s and three p orbitals to form four filled bonding orbitals and four unfilled antibonding orbitals. On the covalent model, we can consider that of the eight electrons required to fill the bonding orbitals, four come from carbon and one each comes from the four H substituents. We can therefore think of each H atom as being a 1e ligand to carbon. To assign a formal oxidation state to carbon in an organic molecule, we impose an ionic model by artificially dissecting it into ions. Each electron pair in any bond is assigned to the most electronegative of the two atoms or groups that constitute the bond. For methane, this dissection gives C4− + 4H+, with carbon as the more electronegative element. This makes methane an 8e compound with an oxidation state of −4, usually written C(-IV). Note that the net electron count always remains the same, whether we adopt the covalent (4e {Catom}+4 × 1e {4H atoms}=8e) or ionic (8e{C4−ion}+4 × 0e{4H+ions}=8e) model.

This sequence relies on the facilitated, in-situ conversion of a ruthenium carbene species (Ru=C) to a ruthenium hydride species (Ru-H) upon addition of an inorganic hydride source. Three separate reactions occur within one reaction flask: 1) olefin metathesis of the starting phenylpropene to yield phenylpropene dimer via Ru=C catalyst, 2) conversion of Ru=C to Ru-H via addition of an inorganic hydride source, 3) isomerization of phenylpropene dimer via insertion and β-hydride elimination to yield conjugated product.

There There are are multiple multiple reviews reviews on on their their us useses in in various branches of chemistry and other sciences but a detailed review of their decomposition is missing, despite a large number of recent and important advances advances in in this this field. field. In In particular, particular, in in the the last last five five years years several several new new mechanism mechanism of decomposition,of decomposition, both both olefin-driven olefin-driven as well as well as induc as induceded by external by external agents, agents, have have been been suggested suggested and usedand usedto explain to explain differences differences in the decomposition in the decomposition rates and rates the metathesis and the metathesis activities activitiesof both standard, of both N-heterocyclicstandard, N-heterocyclic carbene-based carbene-based systems and systems the recently and the developed recently developed cyclic alkyl cyclic amino alkyl carbene- amino containingcarbene-containing complexes.
