Soluble lanthanide salts (LnCl3,·2 LiCl) for the improved addition of organomagnesium reagents to carbonyl compounds

(Chemical Equation Presented) Easy-to-prepare solutions of LnCl 3·2 LiCl (Ln = La, Ce, Nd) (0.3-0.5 M in THF) are a unique source of soluble lanthanide salts with versatile applications in organic synthesis. These salts can serve as promoters or catalysts for the addition of organometallic compounds to sterically hindered, enolizable or α,β-unsaturated ketones or imines.

Solutions of anhydrous lanthanide salts and its preparation

The present invention relates to anhydrous solutions of MX 3 €￠z LiA in a solvent, wherein M is a lanthanide including lanthanum, or yttrium or indium; z > 0; and X and A are independently or both monovalent anions, preferably Cl, Br or I. The solution is readily prepared by dissolving or suspending MX 3 or its hydrate and z equiv LiA in water or hydrophilic solvents, or mixtures thereof, removing the solvent under vacuum and dissolving the resulting powder in another solvent. The solution of MX 3 €￠z LiA can advantageously be used e.g. in addition reactions of Grignard reagents to ketones and imines. Even the catalytic use of MX 3 €￠z LiA is possible. Also claimed are a method for preparing the anhydrous solutions, the use of such solution in a chemical reaction and chemical compositions MX 3 €￠z LiA, with M, z, X and A as indicated above.

SYNTHESIS AND RITTER REACTION OF 1,7,7-TRIMETHYL-2-PHENYLBICYCLOHEPTAN-2-EXO-OL

1,7,7-Trimethyl-2-phenylbicycloheptan-2-exo-ol is formed stereospecifically in the reaction of camphor with phenyllithium.The corresponding individual 1,7,7-trimethyl-4-phenylbicyclohept-2-yl-exo-acyl-amines were obtained as a result of the nucleophilic addition of acetonitrile, propionitrile, or methoxypropionitrile to this tertiary alcohol, which takes place in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid.A scheme is proposed for their formation as a result of rearrangements of the intermediately formed 1,7,7-trimethylbicyclohept-2-yl cation.
