Nitrosonium salts, NO+X- (X = B(3,5-diCF 3Ph)4- or PW12O40 3-), as electrophilic catalysts for alkene activation in arene alkylation and dimerization reactions

It has been found that in apolar reaction media the nitrosonium cation (NO+) activated alkenes under mild conditions toward electrophilic substitution of arene substrates to yield the alkylated arene with Markovnikov orientation. In the absence of arenes the alkenes react with themselves to yield a mixture of dimeric alkenes. The nitrosonium cation can be dissolved in the reaction medium by using the tetrakis-(bis-(3,5-trifluromethyl)phenyl) borate anion, where upon the reactions occur effectively at 30 °C. Alternatively an insoluble, heterogeneous catalyst was prepared so as to yield a NO+ cation with a polyoxometalate (PW12O403-) anion. This catalyst was generally more effective and selective toward a broader range of substrates at 70 °C. Copyright

Photochemical Reaction of 1,4-Naphthalenedicarbonitrile with Alkylbenzenes and Bibenzyls

The photochemical reaction of 1,4-naphthalenedicarbonitrile with some alkylbenzenes and bibenzyls has been examined.A unitary mechanistic picture is formulated on the basis of product study, deuteration experiments, and fluorescence and reaction quantum yield measurements.Proton transfer within the singlet radical ion pair followed by in-cage cycloaddition of the two radicals yields stereoselectively 5,11-methanodibenzo cyclooctene derivatives (8).Reaction of benzyl radicals (formed by protolysis or, for radical cations having no benzylic proton, by C-C bond cleavage) with unprotonated NDN.- leads, again stereoselectively, to 2-benzyl-1,2-dihydronaphtalenes (9).Escape of the donor radical cation and following C-H or C-C bond cleavage leads to a different product, thus, benzyl radicals are trapped by NDN to yield substitution products (11) or recombine.Benzyl cations are trapped by nucleophiles.
