Acyl iodides in organic synthesis. reaction of acetyl iodide with Dialkyl sulfides and disulfides

Reactions of acetyl iodide with dialkyl and dialkenyl sulfides RSR (R = Et, Bu, CH2=CH, CH2=CHCH2) and with disulfides RSSR (R = Pr, C6H13, PhCH2) were studied. Dialkyl sulfides reacted with MeCOI to give the corresponding alkyl ethanethioates and alkyl iodides as a result of cleavage of the S-C bond. The reactions of acetyl iodide with divinyl and diallyl sulfides involved addition across the double bond and subsequent polymerization of 1-alkenylsulfanyl-2(3)-iodoalkyl methyl ketones. Dialkyl disulfides RSSR (R = Pr, C6H13) and dibenzyl disulfide reacted with acetyl iodide via cleavage of the S-S bond to produce the corresponding ethanethioates and organylsulfenyl iodides. The latter underwent disproportionation to form the initial disulfide and molecular iodine.

Photochemical reactions of acyl iodides with aryl halides

Photochemical reactions of acyl iodides RC(O)I (R = Me, Ph) with aryl halides, fluoro-, chloro-, and bromobenzenes, 1,4-dibromobenzene, 2- and 3-bromotoluenes, and 4-bromo-1,2-dimethylbenzene, were studied. Acetyl iodide reacted with chloro- and bromobenzenes and 1,4-dibromobenzene according to the exchange pattern to give iodobenzene and 1,4-diiodobenzene, respectively. No halogen exchange was observed in the reactions of acetyl iodide with fluorobenzene and hexafluorobenzene. Benzoyl iodide failed to react with chloro- and brombenzene under UV irradiation but underwent polycondensation with formation of black nonfusible oligomers which were found to possess paramagnetic and semiconducting properties. Ultraviolet irradiation of a mixture of MeCOI with 2- or 3-bromotoluene, as well as with 4-bromo-1,2-dimethylbenzene, also led to the formation of polymeric products as a result of polycondensation of aryl iodides formed initially via replacement of bromine by iodine. Irradiation of benzoyl iodide in 2- or 3-bromotoluene involved recombination of benzoyl radicals to give benzil as the only product.

Acyl iodides in organic synthesis. Reaction of acetyl iodide with thiols

The direction of reactions of acetyl iodide with aliphatic, aromatic, and heterocyclic thiols is determined by the thiol acidity and steric factors. Acetyl iodide reacted with aliphatic thiols, including trialkylsilylsubstituted derivatives R(CH2)nSH (R = Me, n = 3; R = Me3Si, n = 3; R = Et3Si, n = 2), to give the corresponding ethanethioates R(CH2)nSCOMe. Benzenethiol was oxidized with acetyl iodide to diphenyl disulfide. The reaction of acetyl iodide with 2-sulfanylethanol afforded 2-(2-iodoethyldisulfanyl)ethyl acetate as a result of three consecutive-parallel processes: acylation, iodination, and oxidation of the initial compound. 1,3-Benzothiazole-2-thiol reacted with acetyl iodide only at the nitrogen atom to give quaternary salt, whereas the SH group remained intact.

Acyl iodides in organic synthesis: XIII. Reaction of acyl iodides with nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic compounds

Reactions of acetyl iodide with pyridine at room temperature and with quinoline both at 20–25°C and on cooling to −50°C involve dehydrohalogenation of acetyl iodide with formation of ketene and pyridinium or quinolinium iodides. The reaction of acetyl iodide with pyridine at −5 to −50°C led to the formation of N-acetylpyridinium iodide. Benzoyl iodide reacted with both pyridine and quinoline at both −50°C and at 20–25°C to form stable N-benzoylpyridinium and N-benzoylquinolinium iodides. The reaction of pyrrole with acetyl iodide under analogous conditions was accompanied by polymerization.

Acyl iodides in organic synthesis. Reactions with morpholine, piperidine, and N-hydrocarbylpiperidines

Acyl iodides RCOI (R = Me, Ph) reacted with morpholine and piperidine to give the corresponding N-acyl derivatives and morpholine or piperidine hydroiodides. Reactions of acyl iodides with N-methyl- and N-ethylpiperidines involved cleavage of the exocyclic R-N bond with formation of N-acylpiperidine and alkyl iodide and were accompanied (to insignificant extent) by cleavage of the endocyclic N-C bond, leading to N-alkyl-N-(5-iodopentyl)acylamides. In the reaction of acetyl iodide with N-phenylpiperidine, the main process was cleavage of just endocyclic N-C bond to produce N-(5-iodopentyl)-N-phenylacetamide and its dehydroiodination product, N-(pent-4-en-1-yl)-N-phenylacetamide. Analogous reaction with benzoyl iodide afforded N-(5-iodopentyl)-N-phenylbenzamide in a poor yield.

Acyl iodides in organic synthesis. Reactions of acetyl iodide with urea, thiourea, and their N,N′-disubstituted derivatives

Acetyl iodide reacted with urea and its derivatives to give the corresponding N-substituted products. The reactions of acetyl iodide with thiourea, N,N′-dimethylthiourea, imidazolidine-2-thione, and hexahydropyrimidine-2-thione resulted in the formation of S- or N-acetyl derivatives, depending on the temperature and structure of the sulfur functionality (thione or thiol). By contrast, in the reaction of acetyl iodide with N,N′-bis(3-triethoxysilylpropyl)thiourea one ethoxy group on the silicon atom was replaced by iodine with formation of N-{3-[(diethoxy)iodosilyl]propyl}-N′-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]thiourea. The latter decomposed on heating to give 3-triethoxysilylpropyl isothiocyanate and silicon-containing polymer with the composition C45H97IN6O14.5S3Si6.

Acyl iodides in organic synthesis: IX. Cleavage of the Si-O-C and Si-O-Si moieties

Reactions of acyl iodides RCOI (R = Me, Ph) with organosilicon compounds involve cleavage of the Si-O-C and Si-O-Si fragments. Acetyl iodide reacts with alkyl(alkoxy)silanes with evolution of heat, and cleavage of the Si-O bond results in the formation of oligo-or polysiloxanes, alkyl iodides, and alkyl acetates. 1,3-Diacetoxytetramethyldisiloxane is formed in the reaction of acetyl iodide with dimethoxy(dimethyl)silane. Acyl iodides readily react with 1-ethoxysilatrane to give 1-acyloxysilatranes as a result of cleavage of the C-O bond. The reaction of acetyl iodide with hexaethyldisiloxane yields triethylsilyl acetate and triethyliodosilane, while in the reaction with octamethyltrisiloxane iodo(trimethyl)silane and dimethyl(trimethylsiloxy)silyl acetate are obtained.

Acyl iodides in organic synthesis: VII. Reactions with trialkyl(alkynyl)silanes,-germanes, and-stannanes

Reactions of acyl iodides R1COI (R1=Me, Ph) with trialkyl(alkynyl)silanes,-germanes, and stannanes (R2C≡CMR 3 3 ; M=Si, Ge, Sn) were studied. Acyl iodides reacted with the germanium and tin derivatives with cleavage of the M-Csp bond and formation of the corresponding trialkyl(iodo)germanes and-stannanes R 3 3 MI (M=Ge, Sn) and alkynyl ketones R1C(O)C≡CR2 and R1C(O)C≡CC(O)R1. By contrast, the reaction of acetyl iodide with ethynyl(trimethyl)silane gave only a small amount of 1,2-diiodovinyl(trimethyl) silance as a result of iodine addition at the triple bond. Bis(trimethylsilyl)ethyne failed to react with acetyl iodide.

Acyl Iodides in Organic Synthesis: VI. Reactions with Vinyl Ethers

Reactions of acetyl iodide with butyl vinyl ether, 1,2-divinyloxyethane, phenyl vinyl ether, 1,4-di-vinyloxybenzene, and divinyl ether were studied. Vinyl ethers derived from aliphatic alcohols (butyl vinyl ether and 1,2-divinyloxyethane) react with acetyl iodide in a way similar to ethyl vinyl ether, i.e., with cleavage of both O–Csp2 and Alk–O ether bonds. From butyl vinyl ether, a mixture of vinyl iodide, butyl acetate, vinyl acetate, and butyl iodide is formed, while 1,2-divinyloxyethane gives rise to vinyl iodide, vinyl acetate, and 2-iodoethyl acetate. The reaction of acetyl iodide with divinyl ether involves cleavage of only one O–Csp2 bond, yielding vinyl acetate and vinyl iodide. In the reactions of acetyl iodide with phenyl vinyl ether and 1,4-divinyloxybenzene, only the O–CVin bond is cleaved, whereas the O–CAr bond remains intact.

Acyl Iodides in Organic Synthesis: V. Reactions with Carboxylic Acid Esters

Acyl iodides react with alkyl, alkenyl, and aralkyl esters derived from saturated, unsaturated, and aromatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids in the absence of a catalyst. The reaction involves cleavage of the OR bond and formation of organic iodide RI (including CH2=CHI) and one or two symmetric carboxylic acid anhydrides. Phenyl acetate reacts with benzoyl iodide to give acetyl iodide and phenyl benzoate as a result of cleavage of the (O=)C–O bond. The reaction of diethyl fumarate with acetyl iodide is accompanied by cis– trans isomerization to afford maleic anhydride. In the reactions of acetyl iodide with diethyl oxalate and diethyl malonate, CO and CO2 and CO2 and polyketene are formed, respectively, in addition to ethyl iodide and acetic anhydride. Ethyl esters of strong organic acids, e.g., ethyl trihaloacetates, failed to react with acyl iodides under analogous conditions.

Acyl Iodides in Organic Synthesis: IV. Reaction of Acetyl Iodide with Carboxylic Acids

In contrast to acyl chlorides, reactions of acetyl iodide with monocarboxylic acids follow the exchange pattern to give the corresponding acyl iodides and acetic acid. The reaction attracts interest from the preparative viewpoint as a simple and convenient route to acyl iodides. Acetyl iodide reacts with phthalic acid, yielding acetic acid and phthalic anhydride, while the reaction of acetyl iodide with oxalic acid leads to formation of acetic acid, carbon(II) oxide, and molecular iodine.

Kinetic study on the carbonylation of methyl acetate to acetic anhydride catalyzed by partially quaternized poly(4-vinylpyridine) bound rhodium complexes

The carbonylation of methyl acetate to acetic anhydride catalyzed by a partially quaternized poly(4-vinylpyridine) bound rhodium complex with methyl iodide as the promotor has been investigated. The reaction was verified to be first order with respect to both rhodium and methyl iodide in the presence of lithium acetate and provided that the partial pressure of carbon monoxide was above 1.5 MPa. The oxidative addition of methyl iodide to the active rhodium species and the subsequent reaction of acetyl iodide with methyl acetate to produce acetic anhydride were discovered to be the two rate-determining steps, of which the latter depended on the concentration of lithium acetate. A possible reaction mechanism was suggested. The activation parameters were determined and revealed that a higher catalytic activity of the partially quaternized poly(4-vinylpyridine) bound rhodium complex for the carbonylation of methyl acetate to acetic anhydride was essentially due to the reduction of activation energy. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
