Chapter 24, Problem 24.22P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

η3-allylic complex created in the reaction with PdL4 and chirality in ligand L that would influence the preferences for one of these complexes over the other has to be described.

Concept Introduction:

In catalytic allylic alkylation, a nucleophile, enolate of a doubly activated α- carbon replaces an allylic leaving group, such as acetate. The reaction occurs in presence of Pd as the catalyst.

Stereochemistry at the alkylation carbon is retained.

Nitration of nitrobenzene yields mainly the meta product. Please show why the sigma complex is lower in energy for substitution at meta position than it is for substitution at the ortho and para positions.
Discuss comprehensively why -Cl and -NO2 aredeactivators and why -Cl is a weak and -NO2 astrong deactivator?
The first observation that this reaction is not a typical ligand substitution was the dependence on the pKb of the incoming ligand (using alkoxides) on the rate of substitution. It has been hypothesized that this is a base-hydrolysis mechanism. The key steps are shown below.   [CoCl(NH3)5]2+  +  OH–  →  [CoCl(NH2)(NH3)4]+                (1) [CoCl(NH2)(NH3)4]+  →  [Co(NH2)(NH3)4]2+  +   Cl–                  (2) [Co(NH2)(NH3)4]2+  +  H2O  →  [Co(OH)(NH3)5]2+  + NH3  (3)   (2) Our standard rate laws for associative and dissociative ligand substitution are rate = k[ML6][L’] and rate = k[ML6], respectively. Derive a rate law for the base-hydrolysis ligand substitution above where equation 1 is the rate determining step.
