The Heck reaction of neutral or electron-rich aryl bromides with the 1,1-disubstituted olefins butyl methacrylate and á-methylstyrene catalyzed by Pd nanoparticles in tetrabutylammonium bromide as solvent and tetrabutylammonium acetate as base leads to a prevalent formation of the terminal olefin. In contrast, reaction of p-bromoacetophenone leads to the internal olefin. Whereas the solvent stabilizes the metal nanoclusters, the base is responsible for a fast neutralization of the PdH impeding the hybride readdition to reaction products and avoiding the olefin interconversion. The terminal olefins are efficiently converted into more stable internal E isomers by using tetrabutylammonium pivalate as catalyst.

Abstract
The Heck reaction of neutral or electron-rich aryl bromides with the 1,1-disubstituted olefins butyl methacrylate and á-methylstyrene catalyzed by Pd nanoparticles in tetrabutylammonium bromide as solvent and tetrabutylammonium acetate as base leads to a prevalent formation of the terminal olefin. In contrast, reaction of p-bromoacetophenone leads to the internal olefin. Whereas the solvent stabilizes the metal nanoclusters, the base is responsible for a fast neutralization of the PdH impeding the hybride readdition to reaction products and avoiding the olefin interconversion. The terminal olefins are efficiently converted into more stable internal E isomers by using tetrabutylammonium pivalate as catalyst.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
