Title: Cobalt-mediated cross-coupling reactions of primary and secondary alkyl halides with 1-(trimethylsilyl)ethenyl- and 2-trimethylsilylethynylmagnesium reagents. Author: Ohmiya H, Yorimitsu H, Oshima K. Journal: Org Lett; 2006 Jul 06; 8(14):3093-6. PubMed ID: 16805560. Abstract: [reaction: see text] This paper describes cobalt-mediated cross-coupling reactions of alkyl halides with 1-(trimethylsilyl)ethenylmagnesium bromide and 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethynylmagnesium bromide, respectively. The cobalt system allows for employing secondary as well as primary alkyl halides as the substrates. The reactions offer facile formations of alkyl-alkenyl and alkyl-alkynyl bonds. The reaction mechanism would include single-electron transfer from a cobalt complex to alkyl halide to generate the corresponding alkyl radical. The cobalt system thus enables sequential radical cyclization/alkenylation and cyclization/alkynylation reactions of 6-halo-1-hexene derivatives.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
