Accelerated electrocyclic ring-opening of benzocyclobutenes under the influence of a beta-silicon atom.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A significant acceleration effect of a beta-silicon atom was observed on the electrocyclic ring-opening reaction of benzocyclobutene derivatives to form o-quinodimethanes. This acceleration effect could be attributed to an electronic sigma-donating nature of the C(alpha)-Si(beta) bond, associated with alpha-anion driven pericyclic reactions.

متن کاملComplicated goings-on in the metal-manipulated ring-opening of cyclobutene.
Most reported examples of transition metal-mediated pericyclic reactions have been shown to proceed by nonpericyclic mechanisms. However, the conversion of Fe(CO)(4)-cyclobutenes to Fe(CO)(3)-butadienes and CO is thought to proceed through a mechanism involving an electrocyclic ring-opening step. We have examined this and possible alternative mechanisms for the parent Fe(CO)(4)-cyclobutene comp...
