Wittig Reactions

A new application of the Wittig reaction to the preparation of olefins of low molecular weight which allows selective labelling in the vinyl or allyl positions with isotopes of hydrogen and carbon has been developed. Using the modification of the Wittig reaction introduced by E. J. Corey, in which a solution of the methylsulfinyl carbanion in dimethyl sulfoxide serves as the base, a series of olefins from C2 to C8 were synthesized. The synthesis was applied to the preparation of the following labelled compounds: 5-methylene-14C-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene; propene-1-14C; 1-butene-1-14C; propene-1-d1; 2-methylpropene-1,1-d2; 2-methyl-d3-propene-3,3,3-d3; 2-methyl-2-butene-4,4,4-d3; 2-methyl-d3-2-butene-1,1,1-d3; methylene-d2-cyclohexane. For the synthesis of carbon-labelled olefins the reaction has few limitations since the intermediates and products are isotopically stable under the reaction conditions. Deuterium-labelled olefins can be obtained from deuterated formaldehyde or β-deuterated phosphonium salts, but α-deuteroketones and aldehydes and α-deuterophosphonium salts lose the isotope to the solvent.In all the Wittig reactions, benzene was formed as a by-product in 10–15% yield. The mechanism of benzene formation is probably analogous to that proposed by Seyferth involving the decomposition of a pentacovalent phosphorous intermediate.

The Wittig reaction is a fundamental transformation for the preparation of alkenes from carbonyl compounds and phosphonium ylides. The ylides are prepared prior to the olefination step from the respective phosphonium salts by deprotonation utilizing strong bases. A first free-base catalytic Wittig reaction for the preparation of highly functionalized alkenes was based on tributylphosphane as the catalyst. Subsequently we developed a system employing a phospholene oxide as a pre-catalyst and trimethoxysilane as reducing agent which operates under milder conditions. The title compounds, (E)-3-benzylidenepyrrolidine-2,5-dione, C11H9NO2, (I), the methylpyrrolidine derivative, C12H11NO2, (II), and thetert-butylpyrrolidine derivative, C15H17NO2, (III), have been synthesized by base-free catalytic Wittig reactions. In the crystal of (I), molecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimersviapairs of N—H...O hydrogen bonds. Furthermore, in the crystal structure of (III), there are two molecules in the asymmetric unit, whereas in (I) and (II), only one molecule is present.
