The binuciear palladium(I) complex, [Pd2Cl2(μ-dppm)2] (dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane), has been shown to react with bis(diethylamino)acetylene, Et2NC≡CNEt2, in methylene chloride solution to yield two isolable products, the known methylene-bridged complex, [Pd2Cl2(μ-CH2)(μ-dppm)2], and hexakis(diethylamino)benzene, C6(NEt2)6, both of which have been characterized crystallographically. The source of the bridging methylene group in [Pd2Cl2(μ-CH2)(μ-dppm)2] has been shown to be the methylene chloride solvent. A mechanism that accounts for the formation of the two isolable products is proposed. The complex, [Pd2Cl2(μdmpm)2] (dmpm = bis(dimethylphosphino)methane), was similarly found to react with Et2NC≡NEt2 in methylene chloride solution to yield [Pd2Cl2(μ-CH2)(μ-dmpm)2], which was identified spectroscopically. Key words: acetylene, palladium, cyclooligomerization, aminoacetylene, hexakis(diethylamino)benzene.

The reaction of 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulphenyl chloride with eight alkyl 1,3-disubstituted allenes in methylene chloride solution has been investigated. In contrast to earlier reports, attack by sulphur is found to occur exclusively at the central allenic carbon. The direction of approach of sulphenyl chloride leads preferentially to the formation of the E isomers in accord with the concept of steric approach control. The ratio of E to Z alkene is found to increase as the bulk of the substituent group cis to the arylthio group increases. We observe, however, very little regioselectivity with respect to which of the mutually perpendicular π bonds of the allene system is attacked, suggesting the presence of an effective mechanism for transmission of inductive effects to the more distant double bond.

At lower temperatures stabilized ylides react with unsymmetrically substituted phthalic anhydrides to give two acyclic adducts. When the reactions are allowed to proceed at higher temperature enol lactones are formed. Identification of the acyclic intermediates was necessary to understand the mechanism of these Wittig reactions. The transient species trapped in the reaction with trimethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate were unambiguously identified by crystallographic methods. The crystal structures of the tetrafluoroborate salt of methyl(triphenylphosphoranyl idene)- acetate (8), methyl(3-methoxy,2-methoxycarbonylbenzoyl)triphenylphosphoranylideneacetate (6β), and methyl(2-methoxycarbonyl,6-nitrobenzoyl)triphenylphosphoranylideneacetate (7α) were studied by X-ray diffraction. The ionic salt (8) is monoclinic, P21c,a= 12.640(5), b = 13.945(9), c = 14.825(6) Å, β = 125.32(3)°, Z = 4, and R = 0.065 (F >5.4 σ(F)). Crystal 6 β is monoclinic, P21c,a = 16.391(16), b = 9.029(6), c = 19.835(19) Å, β = 116.60(6)°, Z = 4, and R = 0.070 (F > 4.6 σ(F)), while crystal 7α is also monoclinic, P21c,a = 9.513(5), b = 9.361(3), c = 30.908(13) Å, β = 98.42(3)°, Z = 4, and R = 0.057 (F >5 σ(F)). In the BF 4- salt (12), the four P-C distances are equal (1.791(5)-1.801(7) Å) with identical tetrahedral angles. For the two triphenylphosphoranylideneacetate compounds, the fourth P-C(1) bond is shorter (1.762(6)-1.734(5) Å) than the three P-C(Ph) bonds (avg. 1.809(5) Å). The angles C(1)-P-C(Ph) are also larger (avg. 112.9(2)° for 6β and 111.9(2)° for 7α) than the C(Ph)-P-C(Ph) angles (avg. 105.8(2)° for 6 β and 106.9(2)° for 7α). These values suggest a multiple nature for the P-C(1) bond. In the nitro derivative, the nitro and the ester groups are disordered equally in positions 2 and 6. Key words: Wittig reactions, cyclic anhydrides, stabilized ylide, phosphoranylidenes, crystal structures.

An efficient gram scale synthesis of the previously unknown 4,7-di-tert-butylacenaphthenone (3b) is reported. The facile isomerization of epoxide 9b to ketone 3b occurs simply on stirring a solution of 9b with silica gel at room temperature. Aldol cyclotrimerization of 3b with titanium tetrachloride gives 2,5,8,11,14,17-hexa-tert-butylde cacyclene (1b) in 58% isolated yield. X-ray crystal structures have been obtained for the synthetic intermediates 4,7-di-tert-butylacenaphthene (2b) and 4,7-di-tert-butylacenaphthylene (8b).Key words: aromatic, decacyclene, hydrocarbon, nonalternant, polycyclic.

1H and 19F n.m.r. studies of BF3 adducts of some simple methyl ketones in methylene chloride solution have led to the following conclusions. (1) Only 1:1 adducts are formed which are not appreciably dissociated. (2) The down-field shifts of the proton resonances caused by complexation with BF3 are essentially independent of the ketone and depend only on the distance of the proton from the carbonyl group. (3) BF3 exchange is rapid on the n.m.r. time scale at room temperature, but the exchange process can be slowed sufficiently by lowering the temperature that separate signals due to free and complexed species can be observed. (4) Collapse of the 10B−11B isotope shift with increasing temperature showed that a second chemical exchange process, which exchanges fluorine among boron atoms, occurs in addition to the process of rapid breaking and re-forming of donor–acceptor bonds. A possible mechanism for this fluorine scrambling reaction is discussed.

The reaction of benzeneselenenyl chloride with twenty-two propargyl alcohols in methylene chloride solution is reported. Products of both Markownikoff and anti-Markownikoff regiochemistry are formed in an anti stereospecific manner. The regioselectivity or specificity is found to be very dependent upon the nature of the substituents geminal to the alcoholic moiety. In general the presence of bulky substituents geminal to the alcoholic moiety tend to favour formation of the anti-Markownikoff adduct under conditions of kinetic control. The Markownikoff adducts are found to be favoured thermodynamically.
