Stereoselective Enolizations Mediated by Magnesium and Calcium Bisamides: Contrasting Aggregation Behavior in Solution and in the Solid State

Abstract: The reactions of magnesium and calcium bis(hexamethyldisilazide) with propiophenone have been studied with a view to determine the utility of these bases in the stereoselective enolization of ketones and to uncover the nature of the metal enolate intermediates produced. Both base systems are highly Z-selective when the reactions are conducted in the presence of polar solvents. However, in situ monitoring of the magnesium system in arene solution revealed a preference for E-enolate formation, which was confirme… Show more

“…In this case, 10 is initially precipitated and the small amount of residual 3 remains in solution. 50 but it differs from the η 1 bonding mode of toluene in [Er(η 2 -3,5-di-tert-butyl pyrazolate) 4 ][K(18-crown-6)-(DME)(toluene)]. 51 This suggests that the presence of monodentate THF or bidentate toluene versus bidentate DME on one side of the crown ether can influence toluene coordination on the other side.…”

“…Alkali-alkaline earth mixed metal amides have solubility in organic solvents and unique reactivity that is markedly different from that of a mixture of the homometallic counterparts [125][126][127][128][129][130][131][132]. Alkaline earth-alkaline earth mixed metal species are less well known and limited to [MgCa{N(SiMe 3 ) 2 } 4 ] [127].…”

“…Solutions of calcium dienolate ([Ca(OR) 2 ]) and calcium diamide ([Ca(NRR 1 ) 2 ]) contain also the mixed complex ([Ca(OR)(NRR 1 )]) 73 , and therefore, presumably their Gibbs free energy differences are small. The calcium enolates in this study are monomeric and their magnesium analogues are dimeric.…”
