Promoting of non-transition metal alkylation with organyl halides in the presence of binary systems based on an organometallic compound and a transition metal compound: III. Influence of various factors on the rate of stationary process

Abstract

Basing on analysis of the proposed mechanism of promoting of non-transition metals alkylation with organic halides in the presence of binary systems containing an organometallic compound and a transition metal compound, we discuss the possible effects of different factors (the components binary system components and the alkylated metal content in the mixture, hydrodynamic conditions in the reactor, and temperature) on the rate of the stationary process. Alkylation of zinc with ethyl bromide in the presence of ethylzinc bromide-copper(I) iodide mixture has been considered as a model system. The experiments have confirmed the basic analysis results, thus confirming the model validity. The concept of mathematical modeling of direct synthesis of mixed alkyl derivatives of zinc in the presence of the binary systems has been proposed.
