Whitesides–House Reaction: Use of Lithium Dialkyl Cuprates (Gilman Reagents) in Coupling Reactions The Corey–Posner, Whitesides–House reaction involves the coupling of a lithium dialkylcuprate (called a Gilman reagent) with an alkyl, alkenyl, or aryl halide The alkyl group of the lithium dialkylcuprate reagent may be primary, secondary, or tertiary However, the halide with which the Gilman reagent couples must be a primary or cyclic secondary alkyl halide if it is not alkenyl or aryl General Reaction R2CuLi ϩ A lithium dialkyl cuprate (a Gilman reagent) RЈ9 X 9999999: R9 R ϩ RCu ϩ LiX Alkenyl,

Problem G.10 (b) G.4 Some Background on Transition Metal Elements and Complexes Now that we have seen examples of some important reactions involving transition metals, we consider aspects of the electronic structure of the metals and their complexes Transition metals are defined as those elements that have partly filled d (or f ) shells, either in the elemental state or in their important compounds The transition metals that are of most concern to organic chemists are those shown in the green and yellow portion of the periodic table given in Fig G.1, which include those whose reactions we have just discussed Transition metals react with a variety of molecules or groups, called ligands, to form transition metal complexes In forming a complex, the ligands donate electrons to vacant

elements are shown in the green and yellow portion of the periodic table Given across the bottom is the total number of valence electrons (s and d) of each element orbitals of the metal The bonds between the ligand and the metal range from very weak to very strong The bonds are covalent but often have considerable polar character Transition metal complexes can assume a variety of geometries depending on the metal and on the number of ligands around it Rhodium, for example, can form complexes with four ligands in a configuration called square planar On the other hand, rhodium can form complexes with five or six ligands that are trigonal bipyramidal or octahedral These typical shapes are shown below, with the letter L used to indicate a ligand L L L L L Rh L L Rh Square planar rhodium complex L L L Trigonal bipyramidal rhodium complex L Rh L L L L Octahedral rhodium complex G.5 Electron Counting in Metal Complexes Transition metals are like the elements that we have studied earlier in that they are most stable when they have the electronic configuration of a noble gas In addition to s and p orbitals, transition metals have five d orbitals (which can hold a total of 10 electrons) Therefore, the noble gas configuration for a transition metal is 18 electrons, not as with carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and so on When the metal of a transition metal complex has 18 valence electrons, it is said to be coordinatively saturated.* *We not usually show the unshared electron pairs of a metal complex in our structures, because to so would make the structure unnecessarily complicated solom_STG_G01-G18hr2.qxd 15-10-2009 12:55 Page 1009 G.5 Electron Counting in Metal Complexes To determine the valence electron count of a transition metal in a complex, we take the total number of valence electrons of the metal in the elemental state (see Fig G.1) and subtract from this number the oxidation state of the metal in the complex This gives us what is called the d electron count, d n The oxidation state of the metal is the charge that would be left on the metal if all the ligands (Table G.1) were removed oxidation state of d n ϭ total number of valence electrons Ϫ the metal in the complex of the elemental metal Then to get the total valence electron count of the metal in the complex, we add to d n the number of electrons donated by all of the ligands Table G.1 gives the number of electrons donated by several of the most common ligands total number of valence electrons ϭ d n ϩ electrons donated by ligands of the metal in the complex Let us now work out the valence electron count of two examples TABLE G.1 Common Ligands in Transition Metal Complexesa Ligand Number of Electrons Donated Count as Negatively charged ligands Hydride, H Alkanide, R Halide, X

finely divided iron reacts with carbon monoxide OC Fe ϩ CO Fe(CO)5 CO Fe or OC CO CO Iron pentacarbonyl From Fig G.1 we find that an iron atom in the elemental state has valence electrons We arrive at the oxidation state of iron in iron pentacarbonyl by noting that the charge on the complex as a whole is zero (it is not an ion), and that the charge on each CO ligand is also zero Therefore, the iron is in the zero oxidation state G-10 solom_STG_G01-G18hr1.qxd G-11 14-10-2009 16:45 Page 1010 Special Topic G Carbon–Carbon Bond–Forming and Other Reactions Using these numbers, we can now calculate d n and, from it, the total number of valence electrons of the iron in the complex dn ϭ Ϫ ϭ total number of ϭ d n ϩ 5(CO) ϭ ϩ 5(2) ϭ 18 valence electrons We find that the iron of Fe(CO)5 has 18 valence electrons and is, therefore, coordinatively saturated Example B Consider the rhodium complex Rh[(C6H5)3P]3H2Cl, a complex that, as we shall see later, is an intermediate in certain alkene hydrogenations L H L Rh L Cl L ؍Ph3P [i.e., (C6H5)3P] H The oxidation state of rhodium in the complex is ϩ3 [The two hydrogen atoms and the chlorine are each counted as Ϫ1 (hydride and chloride, respectively), and the charge on each of the triphenylphosphine ligands is zero Removing all the ligands would leave a Rh3ϩ ion.] From Fig G.1 we find that, in the elemental state, rhodium has valence electrons We can now calculate d n for the rhodium of the complex dn ϭ Ϫ ϭ Each of the six ligands of the complex donates two electrons to the rhodium in the complex, and, therefore, the total number of valence electrons of the rhodium is 18 The rhodium of Rh[(C6H5)3P]3H2Cl is coordinatively saturated total number of valence ϭ dn ϩ 6(2) ϭ ϩ 12 ϭ 18 electrons rhodium G.6 Mechanistic Steps in the Reactions of Some Transition Metal Complexes Much of the chemistry of organic transition metal compounds becomes more understandable if we are able to follow the mechanisms of the reactions that occur These mechanisms, in most cases, amount to nothing more than a sequence of reactions, each of which represents a fundamental reaction type that is characteristic of a transition metal complex Let us examine three of the fundamental reaction types now In each instance we shall use steps that occur when an alkene is hydrogenated using a catalyst called Wilkinson’s catalyst In Section G.7 we shall examine the entire hydrogenation mechanism In Section G.8 we shall see how similar types of steps are involved in the Heck–Mizokori reaction Ligand Dissociation–Association (Ligand Exchange) A transition metal complex can lose a ligand (by dissociation) and combine with another ligand (by association) In the process it undergoes ligand exchange For example, the rhodium complex that we encountered in Example B above can react with an alkene (in this example, with ethene) as follows: L H H2 C L Cl L L ϩ H2 C Rh H C H2 C H2 H ϩ Rh L H L ؍Ph3P [i.e., (C6H5)3P] Cl L solom_STG_G01-G18hr1.qxd 14-10-2009 16:45 Page 1011 G.6 Mechanistic Steps in the Reactions of Some Transition Metal Complexes Two steps are actually involved In the first step, one of the triphenylphosphine ligands dissociates This leads to a complex in which the rhodium has only 16 electrons and is, therefore, coordinatively unsaturated H L L L H L H Rh L H ϩL Rh Cl (18 electrons) Cl (16 electrons) L ؍Ph3P In the second step, the rhodium associates with the alkene to become coordinatively saturated again H2 C H L L H ϩ H2 C Rh L C H2 H Rh CH2 L Cl (16 electrons) H Cl (18 electrons) The complex between the rhodium and the alkene is called a p complex In it, two electrons are donated by the alkene to the rhodium Alkenes are often called p donors to distinguish them from s donors such as Ph3P:, ClϪ, and so on In a p complex such as the one just given, there is also a donation of electrons from a populated d orbital of the metal back to the vacant p* orbital of the alkene This kind of donation is called “back-bonding.” Insertion–Deinsertion An unsaturated ligand such as an alkene can undergo insertion into a bond between the metal of a complex and a hydrogen or a carbon These reactions are reversible, and the reverse reaction is called deinsertion The following is an example of insertion–deinsertion H2 C C H2 L H Rh L H Cl insertion deinsertion (18 electrons) Cl L C H3 Rh L CH H (16 electrons) In this process, a p bond (between the rhodium and the alkene) and a s bond (between the rhodium and the hydrogen) are exchanged for two new s bonds (between rhodium and carbon, and between carbon and hydrogen) The valence electron count of the rhodium decreases from 18 to 16 This insertion–deinsertion occurs in a stereospecific way, as a syn addition of the M H unit to the alkene C C M C H C M H Oxidative Addition–Reductive Elimination Coordinatively unsaturated metal complexes can undergo oxidative addition of a variety of substrates in the following way.* A M ϩ A B oxidative addition M B *Coordinatively saturated complexes also undergo oxidative addition G-12 solom_STG_G01-G18hr1.qxd G-13 14-10-2009 16:45 Page 1012 Special Topic G Carbon–Carbon Bond–Forming and Other Reactions The substrate, A B, can be H H, H X, R X, RCO H, RCO X, and a number of other compounds In this type of oxidative addition, the metal of the complex undergoes an increase in the number of its valence electrons and in its oxidation state Consider, as an example, the oxidative addition of hydrogen to the rhodium complex that follows (L ϭ Ph3P) L H L ϩ Rh H oxidative addition H reductive elimination Cl L L L Rh L Cl (16 electrons) Rh is in ؉1 oxidation state H (18 electrons) Rh is in ؉3 oxidation state Reductive elimination is the reverse of oxidative addition With this background, we are now in a position to examine the mechanisms of two applications of transition metal complexes in organic synthesis G.7 The Mechanism for a Homogeneous Hydrogenation: Wilkinson’s Catalyst The catalytic hydrogenations that we have examined in prior chapters have been heterogeneous processes Two phases were involved: the solid phase of the catalyst (Pt, Pd, Ni, etc.), containing the adsorbed hydrogen, and the liquid phase of the solution, containing the unsaturated compound In homogeneous hydrogenation using a transition metal complex such as Rh[(C6H5)3P]3Cl (Wilkinson’s catalyst), hydrogenation takes place in a single phase, i.e., in solution When Wilkinson’s catalyst is used to carry out the hydrogenation of an alkene, the following steps take place (L ϭ Ph3P) Step L L L ϩ H Rh L Rh H Cl L H L 16 valence electrons Cl Oxidative addition H 18 valence electrons Step H H L L L Rh Rh L Cl H 18 valence electrons H ϩ L L Cl 16 valence electrons Ligand dissociation solom_STG_G01-G18hr1.qxd 14-10-2009 16:45 Page 1013 G.7 The Mechanism for a Homogeneous Hydrogenation: Wilkinson’s Catalyst G-14 Step H2 C H L L H CH2 ∆ H ϩ H2C Rh L CH2

Cl ϩ H3C Rh Reductive elimination CH L L H 16 valence electrons 14 valence electrons Step H L L Rh Cl ϩ H2 L ∆ Rh Oxidative addition H L Cl 14 valence electrons 16 valence electrons (Cycle repeats from step 3.) Step regenerates the hydrogen-bearing rhodium complex and reaction with another molecule of the alkene begins at step Because the insertion step and the reductive elimination step are stereospecific, the net result of the hydrogenation using Wilkinson’s catalyst is a syn addition of hydrogen to the alkene The following example (with D2 in place of H2) illustrates this aspect H H H ϩ D2 EtO2C CO2Et A cis-alkene (diethyl maleate) Rh(Ph3P)3Cl H CO2Et EtO2C D D A meso compound What product (or products) would be formed if the trans-alkene corresponding to the cisalkene (see the previous reaction) had been hydrogenated with D2 and Wilkinson’s catalyst?

in the context of transition metal–catalyzed hydrogenation using Wilkinson’s catalyst, we can now see how these same types of mechanistic steps are involved in a mechanism proposed for the Heck–Mizokori reaction Aspects of the Heck–Mizokori mechanism are similar to steps proposed for other cross-coupling reactions as well, although there are variations and certain steps that are specific to each, and not all of the steps below are involved or serve the same purpose in other cross-coupling reactions solom_STG_G01-G18hr1.qxd 14-10-2009 G-17 16:45 Page 1016 Special Topic G

isolation (in 1948) of the curative factor, called vitamin B12 The complete three-dimensional structure of vitamin B12 [Fig G.2(a)] was elucidated in 1956 through the X-ray studies of Dorothy Hodgkin (Nobel Prize, 1964), and in 1972 the synthesis of this complicated molecule was announced by R B Woodward (Harvard University) and A Eschenmoser (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) The synthesis took 11 years and involved more than 90 separate reactions One hundred coworkers took part in the project Vitamin B12 is the only known biomolecule that possesses a carbon–metal bond In the stable commercial form of the vitamin, a cyano group is bonded to the cobalt, and the cobalt is in the ϩ3 oxidation state The core of the vitamin B12 molecule is a corrin ring [Fig G.2(b)] with various attached side groups The corrin ring consists of four pyrrole solom_STG_G01-G18hr1.qxd 14-10-2009 16:45 Page 1017 G-18 G.9 Vitamin B12: A Transition Metal Biomolecule subunits, the nitrogen of each of which is coordinated to the central cobalt The sixth ligand [(below the corrin ring in Fig G.2(a)] is a nitrogen of a heterocyclic group derived from 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole The cobalt of vitamin B12 can be reduced to a ϩ2 or a ϩ1 oxidation state When the cobalt is in the ϩ1 oxidation state, vitamin B12 (called B12s) becomes one of the most powerful nucleophiles known, being more nucleophilic than methanol by a factor of 1014 Acting as a nucleophile, vitamin B12s reacts with adenosine triphosphate (Fig 22.2) to yield the biologically active form of the vitamin [Fig G.2(c)] A carbon–cobalt
