Catalytic, oxidant-free, direct olefination of alcohols using Wittig reagents.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reported here is the catalytic, acceptorless coupling of alcohols with in situ generated, non-stabilized phosphonium ylides to form olefins as major products. The reaction uses low catalyst loadings and does not require added oxidants. Hydrogenation of the product is minimized and the reaction leads to Z (aliphatic) or E (benzylic) stereospecificity.

A newly-designed PE-supported arsine for efficient and practical catalytic Wittig olefination.
A newly designed PE-supported arsine has been developed as an excellent catalyst for catalytic Wittig-type olefination. Simple ketones, in particular inactive ketones prove to be suitable substrates for the first time. This reaction provides an easy access to di-, tri-, and tetra-substituted olefins in high yield.
متن کاملThe Wittig Reaction
This so-called Wittig reaction has a number of advantages over other olefination methods; in particular, it occurs with total positional selectivity (that is, an alkene always directly replaces a carbonyl group). By comparison, a number of other carbonyl olefination reactions often occur with double-bond rearrangement. In addition, the factors that influence Eand Z-stereoselectivity are well un...
متن کاملAn Investigation of the Reactions of Substituted Homoallylic Alcohols with Various Oxidation Reagents
Substituted homoallylic alcohols have been synthesised both by [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement of unsymmetrical bis-allylic ethers and reaction of alkenyl chloromethyl oxiranes with Mg/THF. These substrates were then oxidized using four different oxidants. When the substituted homoallylic alcohols were oxidized with pyridinium chlorochromate or zinc chlorochromate nonahydrate the corresponding carbo...

The conversion of α-benzocycloalkenones to homologous β-benzocycloalkenones containing six, seven and eight-membered rings is reported. This was accomplished via a Wittig olefination-oxidative rearrangement sequence using [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]-benzene (HTIB) is the oxidant, that enables the synthesis of regioisomeric pairs of methyl-substituted β-benzocycloalkenones. The incorporation of carb...
