Carbanions and Base-catalyzed Formation of Carbon-Carbon Bonds
Formation of carbon-carbon bond 1. Free radical carbon 2. Charged or polar carbon
shape of the carbanion • I. Formation and related principle of carbanion ( concepts and mechanisms) • Review conjugated with other double bond
Formation of carbanion 1.exchanging of organometallic compound and H 2.exchanging of organometallic compound and halides 3.reduction of halides with metal 4.abstraction of activating H with base
Activating group for the neighboring H • NO2 > COR > CN > CO2R • Strength order of some commonly used bases:
Factors influencing the stability of carbanions • 1. Conjugation • 2. Induction • 3. Hybridization style • 4. Aromaticity • The reactions of carbanions • 1. With carbonyl-containing compounds • 2. With alkyl halides
II. Condensations of Carbanions with Aldehydes and Ketones • a) The Aldol Condensation Mechanism
Ketone Rate-determining step
Some applications of aldol condensation One aldehyde containing no active hydrogen: Formaldehyde is the most reactive among the aldehydes
e) The Darzens Reaction The net result:
g) The Knoevenagel Reaction Ketone do not undergo the reaction with malonic acid or its esters, but do so with cyanoacetic acid and its ester.( with more highly active a-hydrogen.
III.Condensations of Carbanion with Esters • a) The Claisen Condensation
b) The Dieckmann Condensation Intramolecular Claisen condensation Forming five- or six-membered ring
c) The Thorpe Reaction For the syntheses of various cyclic compounds In a very dilute ether solution Using hindered and less nucleophilic base like LiNEtPh
