Phenylsodium
Phenylsodium C6H5Na is an organosodium compound. Solid phenylsodium was first isolated by Nef in 1903. Although the behavior of phenylsodium and phenyl magnesium bromide are similar, the organosodium compound is very rarely used. Synthesis The existence of phenylsodium was originally proposed by August Kekulé after observing the formation of sodium benzoate in the reaction of bromobenzene with sodium under carbon dioxide. Transmetalation In the original synthesis, diphenylmercury and sodium was shown to yield a suspension of phenylsodium: :(C6H5)2Hg + 3 Na → 2 C6H5Na + NaHg The Shorigen reaction is also used in the generation of phenylsodium, where an alkyl sodium compound is treated with benzene: : RNa + C6H6 → RH + C6H5Na The method can also result in the addition of a second sodium. This dimetallation occurs in the ''meta'' and ''para'' positions. The use of certain alkyl sodium compounds such as n-amyl sodium is known to greatly increase this dimetallation effect. Meta ...

Phenyllithium
Phenyllithium or lithobenzene is an organometallic agent with the empirical formula C6H5Li. It is most commonly used as a metalating agent in organic syntheses and a substitute for Grignard reagents for introducing phenyl groups in organic syntheses. Crystalline phenyllithium is colorless; however, solutions of phenyllithium are various shades of brown or red depending on the solvent used and the impurities present in the solute. Preparation Phenyllithium was first produced by the reaction of lithium metal with diphenylmercury: :(C6Η5)2Ηg + 2Li → 2C6Η5Li + Ηg Reaction of a phenyl halide with lithium metal produces phenyllithium: :X-Ph + 2Li → Ph-Li + LiX Phenyllithium can also be synthesized with a metal-halogen exchange reaction: :n-BuLi + X-Ph → n-BuX + Ph-Li The predominant method of producing phenyllithium today are the latter two syntheses. Reactions The primary use of PhLi is to facilitate formation of carbon-carbon bonds by nucleophilic addition and substi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Organocopper Compound
Organocopper compounds is the chemistry of organometallic compounds containing a carbon to copper chemical bond. Organocopper chemistry is the study of organocopper compounds describing their physical properties, synthesis and reactions. They are reagents in organic chemistry. The first organocopper compound, the explosive copper(I) acetylide Cu2C2 (Cu−C≡C−Cu), was synthesized by Rudolf Christian Böttger in 1859 by passing acetylene gas through a solution of copper(I) chloride: :C2H2 + 2 CuCl → Cu2C2 + 2 HCl Structure and bonding Organocopper compounds are diverse in structure and reactivity, but organocopper compounds are largely limited in oxidation states to copper(I), sometimes denoted Cu+. As a d10 metal center, it is related to Ni(0), but owing to its higher oxidation state, it engages in less pi-backbonding. Organic derivatives of Cu(II) and Cu(III) are invoked as intermediates but rarely isolated or even observed. In terms of geometry, copper(I) adopts symmetri ...

Tributylphosphine
Tributylphosphine is the organophosphorus compound with the formula P(CH). Abbreviated or PBu, it is a tertiary phosphine. It is an oily liquid at room temperature, with a nauseating odor. It reacts slowly with atmospheric oxygen, and rapidly with other oxidizing agents, to give the corresponding phosphine oxide. It is usually handled using air-free techniques. Preparation Tributylphosphine is prepared industrially by the hydrophosphination of phosphine with butene: the addition proceeds by a free radical mechanism, and so the Markovnikov rule is not followed. :PH + 3CH=CHCHCH → P(CHCHCHCH) Tributylphosphine can be prepared in the laboratory by reaction of the appropriate Grignard reagent with phosphorus trichloride although, as it is commercially available at reasonable prices, it is rare to have to perform the small-scale preparation. :3 BuMgCl + PCl → PBu + 3 MgCl Reactions Tributylphosphine reacts with oxygen to give the phosphine oxide: :2 PBu3 + O2 → 2 OPBu3 Bec ...

Benzene
Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C6H6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon. Benzene is a natural constituent of petroleum and is one of the elementary petrochemicals. Due to the cyclic continuous pi bonds between the carbon atoms, benzene is classed as an aromatic hydrocarbon. Benzene is a colorless and highly flammable liquid with a sweet smell, and is partially responsible for the aroma of gasoline. It is used primarily as a precursor to the manufacture of chemicals with more complex structure, such as ethylbenzene and cumene, of which billions of kilograms are produced annually. Although benzene is a major industrial chemical, it finds limited use in consumer items because of its toxicity. History Discovery The word "''benzene''" derives from "''gum benzoin''" ...

Copper (I) Oxide
Copper(I) oxide or cuprous oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula Cu2O. It is one of the principal oxides of copper, the other being or copper(II) oxide or cupric oxide (CuO). This red-coloured solid is a component of some antifouling paints. The compound can appear either yellow or red, depending on the size of the particles. Copper(I) oxide is found as the reddish mineral cuprite. Preparation Copper(I) oxide may be produced by several methods. Most straightforwardly, it arises via the oxidation of copper metal: : 4 Cu + O2 → 2 Cu2O Additives such as water and acids affect the rate of this process as well as the further oxidation to copper(II) oxides. It is also produced commercially by reduction of copper(II) solutions with sulfur dioxide. Reactions Aqueous cuprous chloride solutions react with base to give the same material. In all cases, the color is highly sensitive to the procedural details. Formation of copper(I) oxide is the basis of the Fehling' ...
