Ph3P-CHCH3 H₂C H3C Aldehydes and ketones are converted into alkenes by means of a direct nucleophilic addition called the Wittig reaction. In the reaction, a triphenylphosphorine ylide, also called a phosphorane, adds to an aldehyde/ketone to give a four-membered cyclic intermediate called an oxaphosphetane. The oxaphosphetane is not isolated but instead spontaneously decomposes to release triphenylphosphine oxide and an alkene. CH3 00 + The ylide is formed by reaction of triphenylphosphine, a good nucleophile, with a primary alkyl halide in an SN2 reaction, followed by deprotonation of the carbon with a strong base, such as butyllithium. The carbonyl carbon and the carbon originally bonded to the halogen become the two carbons with the double bond in the product alkene X m CH3 The real value of the Wittig reaction lies in its ability to yield an alkene of predictable structure, as the C=C bond is precisely where the C=O bond was in the reactant and no isomers (other than E/Z isomers)…
Compound A has the molecular formula C14H25Br and was obtained by thereaction of sodium acetylide with 1,12-dibromododecane. On treatment ofcompound A with sodium amide, compound B (C14H24) was obtained. Ozonolysisof compound B gave the diacid HO2C(CH2)12CO2H. Catalytic hydrogenation ofcompound B over Lindlar palladium gave compound C (C14H26), andhydrogenation over platinum gave compound D (C14H28). Further, C yieldedO=CH(CH2)12CH=O on ozonolysis. Assign structures to compounds A through Dso as to be consistent with the observed transformations.
