High conversion of styrene, ethylene, and hydrogen to linear monoalkylbenzenes

1-Alkylbenzenes as a precursor of surfactants, can be produced from ethylene, styrene, and hydrogen. These intermediates, lacking tertiary carbons, are environmentally more benign than commercial ones that bear the aromatic ring linked to an internal carbon of the aliphatic chain. The one-pot synthesis of highly linear 1-alkylbenzenes (LABs) through the homogeneous catalysis of olefin poly-insertion from cheap and largely available reagents can be carried out with a high turnover and selectivity. A purposely designed reactor that allows for the fine control of the three components feed, along with temperature, plays a key role in this achievement. A turnover of 194 g of LABs per mmol of catalyst per hour can be obtained with the simultaneous removal of polyethylene as a by-product.

Carbanion Rearrangements by Intramolecular 1,ω Proton Shifts, III. The Reaction of 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-Phenylalkyllithium Compounds

Upon addition of THF to a solution of 4-phenylbutyllithium (2) in diethyl ether a rapid intramolecular 1,4 proton shift takes place with the formation of 1-phenylbutyllithium (5).Similarly, although somewhat more slowly, 5-phenylpentyllithium (82) rearranges to 1-phenylpentyllithium (83) via 1,5 proton transfer.The corresponding rearrangements by 1,2 or 1,3 hydrogen shifts, however, starting with 2-phenylethyllithium (1) and 3-phenylpropyllithium (54), respectively, were not detected.With 3-phenylpropyllithium (54) a slow intramolecular 1,5 transfer an ortho proton is observed instead, yielding o-propylphenyllithium (100).The corresponding 1,6 shift with 4-phenylbutyllithium (2) was also detected in a minor amount in addition to the 1,4 proton shift already mentioned.There is no indication, however, for a 1,4 transfer of an ortho proton in 2-phenylethyllithium (1).The reaction products in this case can be exclusively explained by intermolecular transmetallation reactions.All ω-phenylalkyllithium compounds under investigation show interesting side and secondary reactions being rather different in deuterated solvents and in deuteriumfree solvents, respectively, due to the isotope effects.The analysis of the products is accomplished by 1H-NMR spectroscopy and, after derivatization, with the help of a GC-MS-combination.Stereoelectronic reasons are made responsible for the failure of the intramolecular 1,2 and 1,3 proton shift in these systems.
