Hydrogenation of C60 with Zn and HCl results in the formation of C60H2, C60H4, C60H6, and C60H36 [179,180], while hydrogenation of C70 under the similar conditions gives the major products of C70H36 and C70H38 [180]. 0000032312 00000 n

The reduction of aromatic compounds by alkali metal in liquid ammonia in the presence of alcohol is generally known as the Birch reduction or metal‐ammonia reduction. The Birch Reduction is one of the main reactions of organic chemistry.

Aryne triggered dearomatization reaction of isoquinolines and quinolines with chloroform. * Commercial ammonia often contains iron as impurity. Discovered by Arthur Birch in 1944, the reaction occupies 300 pages in Organic Reactions to describe its synthetic versatility. Elsewhere, very little has been reported over the last quarter of a century on the reduction of indoles with dissolved metals other than Li and Na. The pattern and the number of addend in hydrogenated fullerenes are controllable depending on reaction time, efficiency of stirring, and the ratio of metal to C60 [177,178]. system. A novel protocol for a significantly improved, practical, and chemoselective ammonia-free Birch reduction mediated by bench-stable sodium dispersions and recoverable 15-crown-5 ether is reported. 0000011530 00000 n

Gordon W. Gribble, in Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, 1991, The Birch reductions of benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene have been studied for a number of years.12 The major pathway in the former reaction is cleavage to 2-ethylthiophenol, under several conditions with Na/NH3,185 while the major mode of reaction for dibenzothiophene depends on the order of mixing, but is mainly ring cleavage.12 A recent report by Wood and coworkers describes the use of calcium in this regard (equations 117 and 118).186 In contrast to this ring cleavage, the conjugated benzothiophene (35) is cleanly reduced to the 2,3-dihydro derivative by the action of Mg/MeOH (equation 119).175. 0000016614 00000 n

The reaction involves the reaction of dissolving metals in ammonia with aromatic compounds to produce 1,4-cyclohexadienes. Synthesis of Unzipping Polyester and a Study of its Photochemistry. Further treated with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) in reflux toluene, the hydrofullerenes can be converted back to C60.

Birch reduction of aryltrialkylsilanes by lithium–liquid ammonia–ethanol at −70 °C has been studied systematically and a typical conversion is indicated in Scheme 38. 0000032999 00000 n
The Birch Reduction is one of the main reactions of organic chemistry. Therefore, it is often necessary to distill the ammonia before using it in the Birch reduction. Working off-campus? An ammonia-free protocol was developed by Vogt et al. 9,10-Dihydroanthracene is a typical transfer hydrogenation agent which can readily lose hydrogen to become aromatic [183,184]. The Birch reduction is an organic reaction that is used to convert arenes to cyclohexadienes. Hydrogenation of fullerenes can also be achieved by the use of Zn (Cu) reduction in the presence of proton source.

Birch Reduction Last updated; Save as PDF Page ID 15608; Mechanism; Contributors; The Birch reduction is the dissolving-metal reduction of aromatic rings in the presence of an alcohol, eg: Mechanism. But insofar as the pyrrole nucleus is too electron-rich to accept electrons and be reduced, and the presence of an acidic hydrogen atom on the pyrrole nitrogen which presents the possibility of deprotonation under Birch-type conditions, when the resulting anion would be extremely resistant to reduction, the first successful studies were carried out on the electron-deficient pyrroles such as N-alkylated and N-acylated 2-substituted (with an electron-withdrawing group) pyrroles 906 and 909, respectively (Equation 222 and Scheme 175) <1996JOC7664>. 0000007185 00000 n
Birch reduction–alkylation of N-methylated pyrrole 906 with sodium in liquid ammonia (using 1 equiv of ButOH and quenching with MeI) gave the pyrroline 907 (albeit in modest yield) (Equation 222). Van Vranken and McComas employed a sequential Birch reduction-hydrogenation protocol to fully reduce the benzo-fused ring of 3-methylindole (skatole) 246 to tetrahydroskatole 247 (equation 20).107 A metal-catalyzed hydrogenation (10% Pt/C) was found to be an essential second step, as Birch reduction of 246 typically led to a 2:1 mixture of dihydro- and tetrahydroskatole 248 and 247. 0000019481 00000 n
By analogy with both furan and thiophene, Birch reduction of the pyrrole nucleus should give the 3-pyrroline skeleton (2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole), which is a useful and versatile synthetic intermediate <1998J(P1)667, 1999T12309, 2000TL1327, 2004CC1422>.
