Pericyclic Reaction

The reactions of an aluminium(I) reagent with a series of 1,2-, 1,3- and 1,5-dienes are reported. In the case of 1,3-dienes the reaction occurs by a pericyclic reaction mechanism, specifically a cheletropic cycloaddition, to form aluminocyclopentene containing products. This mechanism has been interrogated by stereochemical experiments and DFT calculations. The stereochemical experiments show that the (4+1) cycloaddition follows a suprafacial topology, while calculations support a concerted albeit asynchronous pathway in which the transition state demonstrates aromatic character. Remarkably, the substrate scope of the (4+1) cycloaddition includes dienes that are either in part, or entirely, contained within aromatic rings. In these cases, reactions occur with dearomatisation of the substrate and can be reversible. In the case of 1,2- or 1,5-dienes complementary reactivity is observed; the orthogonal nature of the C=C π-bonds (1,2-diene) and the homoconjugated system (1,5-diene) both disfavour a (4+1) cycloaddition. Rather, reaction pathways are determined by an initial (2+1) cycloaddition to form an aluminocyclopropane intermediate which can in turn undergo insertion of a further C=C π-bond leading to complex organometallic products that incorporate fused hydrocarbon rings.

We present the unprecedented <i>η</i>3-coordination of the 2-phosphaethynthiolate anion in the complex (PN)<sub>2</sub>La(SCP) (<b>2</b>) [PN = N-(2-(diisopropylphosphanyl)-4-methylphenyl)-2,4,6-trimethylanilide)]. Structural comparison with dinuclear thiocyanate bridged (PN)<sub>2</sub>La(<i>μ</i>-1,3-SCN)<sub>2</sub>La(PN)<sub>2</sub> (<b>3</b>) and azide bridged (PN)<sub>2</sub>La(<i>μ</i>-1,3-N3)<sub>2</sub>La(PN)<sub>2</sub> (<b>4</b>) complexes indicates that the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> coordination mode is mainly governed by electronic, rather than steric factors. Quantum mechanical investigations reveal large contributions of the antibonding π-orbital of the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> ligand to the LUMO of complex <b>2</b>, rendering it the ideal precursor for the first functionalization of the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> anion. Complex <b>2</b> was therefore reacted with CAACs which induced a selective rearrangement of the [SCP]<sup>–</sup> ligand to form the first CAAC stabilized group 15 – group 16 fulminate-type complexes (PN)<sub>2</sub>La{SPC(<sup>R</sup>CAAC)} (<b>5a,b</b>) (R = Ad, Me). A detailed reaction mechanism for the SCP to SPC isomerization is proposed based on DFT calculations.

AbstractA new (tetrazole-saccharin)nickel complex is shown to be a valuable catalyst for the hydrosilative reduction of aldehydes under microwave radiation at low temperatures. With typical 1 mol% content of the catalyst (microwave power range of 5–15 W) most reactions are complete within 30 min. The Ni(II)-catalyzed reduction of aldehydes, with a useful scope, was established for the first time by using this catalyst, and is competitive with the most effective transition-metal catalysts known for such transformation. The catalyst reveals tolerance to different functional groups, is air and moisture stable, and is readily prepared in straightforward synthetic steps. Supported by experimental data and DFT calculations, a plausible reaction mechanism involving the new catalytic system is outlined.
