Ir-catalysed allylic alkylations of enantiomerically enriched monosubstituted allylic acetates proceed with up to 87% retention of configuration using P(OPh)3 as ligand. High retention enantioselectivity of up to 86% ee in asymmetric allylic alkylations of achiral or racemic substrates is achieved with monodentate phosphorus amidites as ligands. Lithium N-tosylbenzylamide was identified as a suitable nucleophile for allylic aminations. Of particular importance is the use of lithium chloride as an additive, generally leading to increased enantioselectivities. Two (π-allyl)IrIII complexes were characterised by X-ray crystal structure analysis and spectroscopic data.

In acid-catalyzed reactions with 3-unsubstituted indoles 1, 2-alkoxy-1,3-dioxolanes 2a-c behave as acyl equivalents.Depending on the substitution patterns of the reaction partners, the 1,3-dioxolanium ions 3a-c, generated in situ from the cyclic ortho esters by the action of sulfosalicylic acid, react to form tris-(3-indolyl)alkanes 6 and 9, bis-(3-indolyl)ethenes 7, or 3-benzoylindoles 8.Analogous reactivity was observed with related acyclic ortho esters.
Radiation Chemical Production and Lifetimes of Trialkoxymethyl Carbocations in Aqueous Solution

Trialkoxymethyl radicals were produced in aqueous solution by H abstraction from trialkoxymethanes by OH and H.The radicals were then oxidized by one-electron transfer to give trialkoxymethyl carbocations.The reactions of the cations with water and with OH- were studied by using time-resolved conductance techniques. (CH3O)3C+ hydrolyzes with a rate constant of (1.4 +/- 0.2)E3 s1- and it reacts with OH- with k = (7 +/- 1)E7 M1-s1-.The activation parameters for the reaction with water are EA = 7.6 kcal/mol and ΔS(excit.) = -20.2 eu.Replacement of methoxy in the cation by ethoxy and isopropoxy leads to a pronounced decrease in the rate constants for these processes: the Taft ρ* values for the reaction of (RO)3C+ with H2O and OH- are 5.7 and 3.7, respectively.With cyclic trialkoxymethyl cations that from the six-membered 1,3-dioxane system is more stable than that from 1,3-dioxolane, the five-atom counterpart.Trialkoxymethyl cations are also produced by a β-fragmentation reaction from α-(β-trialkoxy)methoxyalkyl cations.
