Abstract: | The catalytic activity of several Ni (diphosphine)2/acid homogeneous systems (acid = HCN, CF3COOH, CCl3COOH, and H2SO4) in the double bond and cistrans isomerizations of olefins has been tested with the following compounds: pentene-1, cis-pentene-2, trans-pentene-2, allyl benzene, allyl cyanide, allyl alcohol. The catalytic efficiency of the Ni(diphosphine)2/acid systems depends markedly on the nature both of the diphosphine and of the acid employed. When the diphosphine is 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane and acid = HCN a particularly efficient catalytic system is formed in situ and only in the case of the allyl cyanide is the isomerization limited. During the isomerization of pentene-1, the stereoselectivity in the formation of the cis-2 and trans-2 isomers is quite dependent on the nature of the cocatalyst. It is proposed that a σ-alkyl mechanism is operating in the system and a π-allyl one in the case of . |
