TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES

Metathesis – derived from the greek word meaning “to place
differently” or “to transpose”

Metal-catalyzed exchange of alkylidene and alkylidyne units in
alkenes and alkynes:
METATHESIS OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES
 Depending
on the nature of the applied alkene and the reaction
conditions, metathesis reactions can give different results,
allowing a structuring of the area:
ALKENE METATHESIS
ALKENE METATHESIS
Chauvin Mechanism (1970)
A pathway that involves a
metallacyclobutane intermediate
A metallacyclobutane
intermediate was isolated and
characterized by Schrock (1989)
ALKENES METATHESIS
 A metal alkylidene unit
M=CH2 functions as the
catalytically active center
 Mo, W, Re, Rh have proven to
be particularly useful central
metal atoms
ALKENES METATHESIS

Early metathesis catalysts were derived from transition metal
halides and carbanion donors (WCl6 / Et2Al / EtOH)
ALKENE METATHESIS
ALKENE METATHESIS - CATALYSTS
 Both complexes have low coordination number (CN = 4) allows a facile
access to the central metal atom.
 Spectator ligands aids (imido , oxo ) in the formation of the metallacycle
intermediate
TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES


CM has been used extensive the industry in the form of Higher
Olefin Process (SHOP) – a combination process consisting of
oligomerization, isomerization, and metathesis steps.
The metathesis step:
CROSS METATHESIS (CM)

If a shop process is followed by hydroformylation,
fatty alcohols with 8-22 carbon atoms are formed!
 In
the laboratory, CM has a limited application.
Products are obtained as mixtures of Z/E isomers
CROSS METATHESIS

In contrast to CM, Ring Closing Metathesis (RCM) has
become a standard method in organic chemistry.
RING-CLOSING METATHESIS

Newer catalysts has inspired natural products
synthesis:
RING CLOSING METATHESIS

Assymetric ring closure metathesis (ARCM) has also
been developed using chiral catalysts:
RING CLOSING METATHESIS
Ring-opening metathesis is the reverse of RCM.
 A cross-metathesis with ethylene forms terminal
dienes
 Ring strain favors ring opening and are specially
common with nobornenes and cyclobutenes.


Synthetic utility is limited by the formation of different
CM and self-methathesis products
RING OPENING METATHESIS

In some cases selectivity are achieved:
RING OPENING METATHESIS

Self metathesis; use of open chain alkene substrate is avoided.

The C=C double bond in the monomer is conserved in the
polymer.

The catalytically active species is fixed to the end of the
growing chain (“living polymer”)

As soon as a certain monomer is consumed, a different
monomer can be used to make block coplymers.

Can be deactivated by reaction with a carbonyl group to yiled
M=O (Wittig reaction).
RING OPENING METATHESIS POLYMERIZATION

ROMP mechanism:
RING OPENING METATHESIS POLYMERIZATION

ROMP in the industry:
The C=C double bond in this norbornene rubber allows for cross-linking
TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES
ROMP in the industry:
TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES
Metathesis involving C C triple bonds can proceed
symetrically (Yne YneM) and in the mixed form (Ene
YneM)
 Metathesis using dissymetrical alkynes using MoO3 or
WO3 as heterogeneous catalysts:

ALKYNE METATHESIS

Prototype Catalyst: [W(C-tBu)(O-tBu)3]
TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES

Mechanism:
TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES

The presence of a double and triple bonds in the reactants
presents challenges: selective metathesis
TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES

Metathesis also applies to nitriles:
TRANSFORMATION OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES

Mixed (EneYneM):
ALKENE – ALKYNE METATHESIS

Example:. [Ru(CO)3Cl2l2 catalyzes the skeletal
rearrangement of 1,6- and 1,7-enynes to form
vinylcycloalkenes (Murai, 1994) :
ALKENE – ALKYNE METATHESIS
SAMPLE PROBLEM:
Assume 2-pentene and 2-hexene undergo metathesis.
AT equilibrium what are all the possible alkenes that
would be present, neglecting stereochemistry about the
double bond? Remember to consider self metathesis
reactions.
SAMPLE PROBLEM:
What is the product of cyclooctene metathesis?

Two mechanisms:
- via metallacyclopentane intermediate
- insertion of 2 alkene molecules into M-H
ALKENE DIMERIZATION AND OLIGOMERIZATION
ALKENE DIMERIZATION VIA METALLACYCLOPENTANE

Involves coordination of two
ethylene molecules, oxidative
coupling, -elimination then
reductive elimination.

Metal has a low number of
valence electron and at least
two non-bonding electrons, necessary for oxidative
coupling
ALKENE DIMERIZATION AND OLIGOMERIZATION

Same as polymerization
but limited to insertion of
two monomeric olefins
into the M-H bond.

This system is made
catalytic by the elimination step.

Key point: -elimination
should be faster than 3rd
alkene insertion.
ALKENE DIMERIZATION BY SUCCESSIVE INSERTION

Isomerization can occur via migration of the double
bond – terminal olefin to an internal olefin.
ALKENE ISOMERIZATION
 16e hydride complexes isomerize terminal
olefins via reversible insertion of the olefin
into the M-H bond followed by elimination.
 Mixture of cis and trans is obtained with
the more stable trans form being major.
ALKENE ISOMERIZATION by -ELIMINATION
Example:
ALKENE ISOMERIZATION by -ELIMINATION
Catalyst do not contain a hydride
ligand.
M should have at least two vacant
coordination sites like the 14e
species Fe(CO)3
ALKENE ISOMERIZATION by ALLYLIC C-H ACTIVATION
CIS TRANS or Z/E ISOMERIZATION via METALLOCARBENES


TiCl3/Et2AlCl – a heterogenous mixture
Proposed mechanism: (Cosse, 1975)
