ABSTRACT:
A method for carrying out reactions of the Friedel-Crafts type, such as alkylation, acylation, polymerization, sulfonylation and dehydrohalogenation. The reactions are catalyzed by arene-metal tricarbonyl complexes and when the reaction vessel contains aromatic substrates the catalyst may be generated in situ from a metallic hexacarbonyl. The arene-metal tricarbonyl catalyst is more selective than conventionally employed Friedel-Craft catalysts in that it yields generally para isomers with little of the ortho variety and very little if any of the meta variety when the aromatic substrate is reacted with organic halide. It is also possible to form the arene-metal tricarbonyl catalyst outside of the reaction vessel and then proceed by adding it to the vessel containing the substrate and the organic halide as is the case with dehydrohalogenation reactions wherein there are no aromatic rings available, the substrate in that instance being aliphatic.
