Relay cross metathesis reactions of vinylphosphonates
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dimethyl (β-substituted) vinylphosphonates do not readily undergo cross metathesis reactions with Grubbs catalyst and terminal alkenes. However, the corresponding mono- or diallyl vinylphosphonate esters undergo facile cross metathesis reactions. The improved reactivity is attributed to a relay step in the cross metathesis reaction mechanism.

A general model for selectivity in olefin cross metathesis.
In recent years, olefin cross metathesis (CM) has emerged as a powerful and convenient synthetic technique in organic chemistry; however, as a general synthetic method, CM has been limited by the lack of predictability in product selectivity and stereoselectivity. Investigations into olefin cross metathesis with several classes of olefins, including substituted and functionalized styrenes, seco...
متن کاملThe catalytic performance of Ru–NHC alkylidene complexes: PCy3 versus pyridine as the dissociating ligand
The catalytic performance of NHC-ligated Ru-indenylidene or benzylidene complexes bearing a tricyclohexylphosphine or a pyridine ligand in ring closing metathesis (RCM), cross metathesis, and ring closing enyne metathesis (RCEYM) reactions is compared. While the PCy₃ complexes perform significantly better in RCM and RCEYM reactions than the pyridine complex, all catalysts show similar activity ...
متن کاملOlefin metathesis in nano-sized systems
The interplay between olefin metathesis and dendrimers and other nano systems is addressed in this mini review mostly based on the authors' own contributions over the last decade. Two subjects are presented and discussed: (i) The catalysis of olefin metathesis by dendritic nano-catalysts via either covalent attachment (ROMP) or, more usefully, dendrimer encapsulation - ring closing metathesis (...
متن کاملBeyond catalyst deactivation: cross-metathesis involving olefins containing N-heteroaromatics
Alkenes containing N-heteroaromatics are known to be poor partners in cross-metathesis reactions, probably due to catalyst deactivation caused by the presence of a nitrogen atom. However, some examples of ring-closing and cross-metathesis involving alkenes that incorporate N-heteroaromatics can be found in the literature. In addition, recent mechanistic studies have focused on the rationalizati...
متن کاملCross-metathesis reactions of vinyl-chlorins and -porphyrins catalyzed by a "second generation" Grubbs' catalyst.
The first application of olefin cross-metathesis with vinylchlorins and vinylporphyrins using a "second generation" Grubbs' catalyst is reported. Cross-metathesis products were obtained in good yields with high E-stereoselectivity.
