Reaction of the π-allyl groups of the dodecatrienylnickel complex with aldehydes, acetyl chloride, and allyl bromide
Abstract
Acetaldehyde, acetyl chloride, and acrolein add to one of the π-allyl groups of dodecatrienylnickel (1) giving long chain organic compounds; in the presence of allyl bromide, addition to both π-allyl groups occurs giving products of increased chain length.
