The rate of alkylation of enolate ions is strongly dependent on the solvent which the reaction is carrier out.烯醇化合物离子的烷基化取代很大程度上取决于该反应所在的溶剂。The relative rates of reaction of sodium enolate of diethyl n-butyl malonate with n-butyl btomide are shown in table1.3 Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and N,N-dimeth ylformamide (DMF) are particularly effective in enhancing the reactivity of enolate ions. Both of these are polar aprotic solvents. Other compounds that are used as cosolvents in reactions between enolates and alkyl halides include N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), hexamethylphosphoric triamide (HMPA) and
N,N-dimethylpropyleneurea (DMPU).42Polar aprotic solvents, as the name indicates,
are materials that have high dielectric constants but lack hydroxy or other hydrogen-
bonding groups. Polar aprotic solvents possess excellent metal cation coordination
ability, so they can solvate and dissociate enolates and other carbanions from ion pairs and clusters.
The reactivity of alkali metal Li+ Na+ K+ enolates is very sensitive to the
state of aggregation, which is, in turn, influenced by the reaction medium. The highest level of reactivity, which can be approached but not achieved in solution, is that of the “bare” unsolvated enolate anion. For an enolate-metal ion pair in solution, the maximum reactivity is expected when the cation is strongly solvated and the enolate is very weakly solvated. Polar aprotic solvents are good cation solvators and poor anion solvators. Each one has a negatively polarized oxygen available for coordination to the metal cation. Coordination to the enolate anion is less effective because the positively polarized atoms of these molecules are not nearly as exposed as the oxygen. Thus, these solvents provide a medium in which enolate-metal ion aggregates are dissociated to give a less encumbered, more reactive enolate.
Polar protic solvents such as water and alcohols also possess a pronounced ability
to separate ion aggregates, but are less favorable as solvents in enolate alkylation
reactions because they can coordinate to both the metal cation and the enolate anion.
Solvation of the enolate anion occurs through hydrogen bonding. The solvated enolate is relatively less reactive because the hydrogen bonding must be disrupted during alkylation. Enolates generated in polar protic solvents such as water, alcohols, or ammonia are therefore less reactive than the same enolate in a polar aprotic solvent such as DMSO. Of course, hydroxylic solvents also impose limits on the basicity of enolates that are stable.
Tetrahydrofuran (THF) and dimethoxyethane (DME) are slightly polar solvents
that are moderately good cation solvators. Coordination to the metal cation involves
the oxygen unshared electron pairs. These solvents, because of their lower dielectric
constants, are less effective at separating ion pairs and higher aggregates than are
the polar aprotic solvents. The structures of the lithium and potassium enolates of
methyl t-butyl ketone have been determined by X-ray crystallography. The structures
are shown in Figures 1.2 and 1.3. Whereas these represent the solid state structures, the hexameric clusters are a good indication of the nature of the enolates in relatively
weakly coordinating solvents. In both structures, series of alternating metal cations
and enolate oxygens are assembled in two offset hexagons. The cluster is considerably tighter with Li+ than with K+. The M−O bonds are about 1.9Å for Li
+ and 2.6Å for K+. The enolate C−O bond is longer (1.34Å

for Li+ than for K+ (1.31Å

, whereas the C=C bond is shorter for Li+ (1.33Å

than for K+ (1.35Å

. Thus, the Li+ enolate has somewhat more of oxy-anion character and is expected to be a “harder” than the potassium enolate.
Despite the somewhat reduced reactivity of aggregated enolates, THF and DME
are the most commonly used solvents for synthetic reactions involving enolate
alkylation. They are the most suitable solvents for kinetic enolate generation and also
have advantages in terms of product workup and purification over the polar aprotic
solvents. Enolate reactivity in these solvents can often be enhanced by adding a reagent that can bind alkali metal cations more strongly. Popular choices are HMPA, DMPU, tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA), and the crown ethers. TMEDA chelates metal ions through the electron pairs on nitrogen. The crown ethers encapsulate the metal ions through coordination with the ether oxygens. The 18-crown-6 structure is of such a size as to allow sodium or potassium ions to fit in the cavity. The smaller 12-crown-4 binds Li+ preferentially. The cation complexing agents lower the degree of aggregation of the enolate and metal cations, which results in enhanced reactivity.
The effect of HMPA on the reactivity of cyclopentanone enolate has been
examined.This enolate is primarily a dimer, even in the presence of excess HMPA,
but the reactivity increases by a factor of 7500 for a tenfold excess of HMPA at −50 The kinetics of the reaction with CH3I are consistent with the dimer being the active
nucleophile. It should be kept in mind that the reactivity of regio- and stereoisomeric
enolates may be different and the alkylation product ratio may not reflect the enolate
composition. This issue was studied with 2-heptanone.Although kinetic deproton-
ation in THF favors the 1-enolate, a nearly equal mixture of C(1) and C(3) alkylation
was observed. The inclusion of HMPA improved the C(1) selectivity to 11:1 and also
markedly accelerated the rate of the reaction. These results are presumably due to
increased reactivity and less competition from enolate isomerization in the presence
of HMPA. The effect of chelating polyamines on the rate and yield of benzylation of the lithium enolate of 1-tetralone was compared with HMPA and DMPU. The triamine and tetramine were even more effective than HMPA in promoting reaction.
These results, too, are presumably due to disaggregation of the enolate by the polyamines.
The reactivity of enolates is also affected by the metal counterion. For the most
commonly used ions the order of reactivity is Mg2+ < Li+ < Na+ < K+. The factors
that are responsible for this order are closely related to those described for solvents.
The smaller, harder Mg2+ and Li+ cations are more tightly associated with the enolate than are the Na+ and K+ ions. The tighter coordination decreases the reactivity of the enolate and gives rise to more highly associated species.
