Wittig ReactionI. Deoxygenation of Aldehydes and Ketonesa. No mechanism is required for these reactionsb. Note acidic reaction conditionsII. Wolff Kishnera. Ketone + NH2NH2 (hydrazine) + NaOH + heat  alkanei. Mechanism:1. OH attacks H, deprotonates the hydrazone making its ion form and water2. The ion formed is resonance stabilized. The resonance form, where there is a carbanion, attacks water and deprotonates the water.3. OH attacks and deprotonates the H on the N-H bond, kicking the electrons to the double bond N-N, making a triple bond N-N, which leaves. Carbanion forms.4. Protonate the carbanion using water, reforming base and forming the alkane.III. Wittig Reactiona. Overall: Me, primary, or secondary alkyl halide + PPh3, nBuLi, aldehyde/ketone  carbonyli. P in PPh3 is a good nucleophile. The Phare 3 phenyl groups. It is not sterically hindered as much because it is still a great nucleophileii. nBuLi is a strong baseiii. alkyl halide carbon becomes carbonyl carbon in the productiv. Mechanism:1. SN2: P of PPh3 attacks the partial positive carbon of the alkyl halide, and replacing the halide.2. Strong base de-protonates Hydrogen, forming a pi bond with the PPh3a. The synthetic intermediate formed is called an ylide.b. The octet is violated here, but it is possible because P is a period 3 element3. Wittig: The pi electrons from the newly formed pi bond form a carbanion. That lone pair of electrons attack the carbonyl carbon of a given ketone/aldehyde, forming a new C- C bond while kicking off the electrons from the carbonyl bond back onto the oxygen.4. The negatively charged oxygen attacks the positively charged P. forming a temporary ring system5. The ring system collapses, sigma electrons become pi electrons around 2 axes.a. Ph3P = O and carbonyl are the two productsb. The driving force is the Ph3P = O (P double bonded to O, which is a very strong bond)6. This is a powerful reaction for alkene synthesisCHEM 0320 1st Edition Lecture 20Outline of Last Lecture I. Keto and Primary Amine II. Iminium Ion Intermediate III.
