The dicationic palladium cluster Pd3(dppm)3(CO)2+ (dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) reacts with acid chlorides RCOCl (R = n-C6H13, t-Bu, Ph) to afford quantitatively the chloride adduct Pd3(dppm)3(CO)(Cl)+ and the acyl cation RCO+ as the organic counterpart. The dicationic reactive cluster can be reformed by electrolyzing the chloride complex with a copper anode leaving CuCl as a byproduct. The combination of these two reactions provides an electrocatalytic way to form the acylium from the acid chloride. Indeed, in CH2Cl2, 0.2 M NBu4PF6, or NBu4BF4, the electrolysis of the acid chloride in the presence of a catalytic amount of the cluster (1%) gives in good yields the acid fluoride RCOF, arising from the coupling of the acylium with a F(-) issued from the fluorinated supporting electrolyte. Alternatively, in CH2Cl2 or 0.2 M NBu4ClO4, by operating with an alcohol R'OH as the nucleophile, the electrolysis gives the ester RC(O)OR' as the only final product.
二价钯簇合物Pd3(dppm)3(CO)2+(dppm = 双(二苯基膦基)甲烷)与酰氯RCOCl(R = 正己基、叔丁基、苯基)反应,定量生成氯加合物Pd3(dppm)3(CO)(Cl)+和作为有机对应物的酰基阳离子RCO+。通过用铜阳极电解氯化物络合物可将二价活性簇合物重新生成,同时副产CuCl。这两个反应的结合提供了一种从酰氯形成酰鎓离子的电催化方法。实际上,在二氯甲烷、0.2 M四丁基六氟磷酸铵或四丁基四氟硼酸铵中,在催化量的簇合物(1%)存在下电解酰氯,可高产率得到酰氟RCOF,它是由酰鎓离子与氟化支持电解质产生的F(-)偶联而成。或者,在二氯甲烷或0.2 M四丁基高氯酸铵中,以醇R'OH作为亲核试剂进行电解,电解产物为唯一的最终产物酯RC(O)OR'。
