Synthesis of olefins via a Wittig reaction mediated by triphenylarsine

Abstract: An arsine-mediated Wittig reaction for the synthesis of olefins is described. After heating triphenylarsine in the presence of an activated alkyl bromide for 30 minutes, the resulting arsonium salt condensed with aldehydes in as little as 5 minutes at room temperature, yielding the olefins in high yields. Aromatic, heteroaromatic, and alkyl aldehydes were all suitable substrates for this process.

“…[42] We hoped that the increased reactivity of the Ph 3 As = O might make its reduction compatible with an anodic cyclization in the presence of the required methanol solvent and thereby provide information on the reduction potential needed for such a process. This alternative for Ph 3 P=O was intriguing because Geary and co-workers have demonstrated that Wittig reactions can be conducted with the use of Ph 3 As in place of the Ph 3 P. [43,44] The reduction of Ph 3 As=O was initially paired with the oxidation of veratryl alcohol [Scheme 10, Eq. (a)].…”
