Abstract
AbstractThe behavior of hydridonickel coordination compounds as catalysts for the oligomerization and polymerization of butadiene in various solvents was studied. In the presence of alcohol bis(tricyclohexylphosphine)chlorohydridonickel (4, X = Cl) (HNiCl[P(C6H11)3]2) catalyzes the linear dimerization. With hydridotetrakis(phosphite)nickel(1+) (2) ([HNi{P(OR)3}4]+), which is prepared from tetrakis(phosphite)nickel (1) (Ni[P(OR)3]4) and trifluoroacetic acid, dimerization occurs in sec‐alcohol but there is no reaction in tert‐alcohol. The main product is 2‐methylenevinylcyclopentane (8). The other products are 4‐vinylcyclohexene (10), 1,5‐cyclooctadiene (5), 1,3,7‐octatriene (7) and 1,3,6‐octatriene (9). The hydridonickel coordination compound, prepared with inorganic acids, does not afford the dimers but the 1,4‐trans polymer.
