Abstract

The yield and structure of products of the Barbier-type addition of alkyl halides (perfluorobutyl iodide, allyl bromide, allyl iodide, and hexyl iodide) to para-substituted benzaldehydes in the presence of pentacarbonyliron are essentially determined, on the one hand, by the ability of alkyl halide to be reduced to carbanion and, on the other, by the electrophilicity of the aldehyde reaction center which in turn depends on the nature of para-substituent in the aromatic ring.
