Description
~3~8~ ~
Xt has been known that olefins can be dimerized or co-dimerized by means o~ nickel-contalning and phosphane-modified catalyets. Thus, the co-dimer-ization of cycli~ dienes or stra~ned olefins such as norbornene and ethene by using ~-allylnickel hal:ides or nickel(O) compounds and the activation thereof by means of Lewis acids and the modification with acyclic phosphanes, also optically active acyclic phosphanes, have been described several times LGerman Patent 20 39 125, Studiengesellscha~t Kohle mbH.

Chim. 1979, II-415; 3. Chem. Soc. 1980, 937; G. Buono et al., J. Org, Chem. 1985, 50, 178~J. The processes known 80 far ha~e technisal disadvantages, as the catalysts show only relatively low activities and moreoverj the accomplished selectivities are in-~u~ficient. The maximum numbers of catalytic cycles attainable with the processes described so far are too low for a commercial use.
'~' :~ 3 ~
Surprisingly, it was now found that said technical defects of the processes known so Par can be o~ercome ~y using azaphospholenes as modifying ligands, ~he substituQnts of which azaphospholenes, due to their spatlal raquirements, will block c:erta~n rotations in the catalyst complexes. Therefrom ensue relatively rigid arrangements at the catalyst wherein always one nickel atom is complexed to each phosphorus atom. Such ligands are phospholenes having the followlng structu-re-' 1/
wherein the moieties Rl and R2 may be alkyl, aryl andaralkyl groups which may be varied within wide limits.
Upon the pre~erred selection of Rl = -CH-C6H5, preferably in the optical ~- or S-form~, respectively, and R2 = CH3, particularly good results are obtained.
The up to now unknown diastereomer built up with these substituents has the ~ollowing structure and con-~iguration according to x-ray structural analysis:

The azaphospholenes of the type 6a are suitable ~or the preparation o~ catalysts o~ a highly selective activity which in turn are capable o~ converting un-saturated hydrocarbons into optically active compounds.
Thus, an optically active vinyl bicycloheptane is obtained from bicycloheptene and ethylene in space-time yields not yet described so ~ar. Said optically active vinyl bicycloheptane in turn may be the starting material ~ox the terpolymerization together with, e.g., -- 8 ~
ethylene and propylene to give polymers, and more part-icularly optically active polymers. Optically active polymers~ due to their high sterical regularity, have ~mproved physical and mechanical properties. Thu~, optically active polymers are suitable as absorben~s for the separation of enantiomers. In the zame manner, an optically active 3-phenylbut~3ne-l is selectively obtainable in high yield from styrene and ethylene by co-dimerization, and so are substituted 3-phenyl-butenes-l from substituted styrenes and ethylene. The polymer~zation of this a-ole~in products to optically active polymers ls effected in the same way as the terpolymerization set forth above.
A further application of the azaphospholenes in the form of the described complex compounds together with organoaluminum compounds is the selective change of the structure of, e.g., heptadiene-1,6 to form l-methyl-2-methylidene cyclopentene, as well as the co-dimerization o~ 1,3-cyclopentadiene and ethylene leading to op ically active 3-phenylpentens-1.

Xt has been known that olefins can be dimerized or co-dimerized by means o~ nickel-contalning and phosphane-modified catalyets. Thus, the co-dimer-ization of cycli~ dienes or stra~ned olefins such as norbornene and ethene by using ~-allylnickel hal:ides or nickel(O) compounds and the activation thereof by means of Lewis acids and the modification with acyclic phosphanes, also optically active acyclic phosphanes, have been described several times LGerman Patent 20 39 125, Studiengesellscha~t Kohle mbH.

The processes known 80 far ha~e technisal disadvantages, as the catalysts show only relatively low activities and moreoverj the accomplished selectivities are in-~u~ficient. The maximum numbers of catalytic cycles attainable with the processes described so far are too low for a commercial use.

Surprisingly, it was now found that said technical defects of the processes known so Par can be o~ercome ~y using azaphospholenes as modifying ligands, ~he substituQnts of which azaphospholenes, due to their spatlal raquirements, will block c:erta~n rotations in the catalyst complexes. Therefrom ensue relatively rigid arrangements at the catalyst wherein always one nickel atom is complexed to each phosphorus atom. Such ligands are phospholenes having the followlng structu-re-' 1/
wherein the moieties Rl and R2 may be alkyl, aryl andaralkyl groups which may be varied within wide limits.
Upon the pre~erred selection of Rl = -CH-C6H5, preferably in the optical ~- or S-form~, respectively, and R2 = CH3, particularly good results are obtained.
The up to now unknown diastereomer built up with these substituents has the ~ollowing structure and con-~iguration according to x-ray structural analysis:

Molecular modslling investigations on 6a and 6b show that in ~a rotat~ons around certain bonds, e.g. the central C-C bond (Cl -C30) are largely restricted, while this is not the case in 6b.

The azaphospholenes of the type 6a are suitable ~or the preparation o~ catalysts o~ a highly selective activity which in turn are capable o~ converting un-saturated hydrocarbons into optically active compounds.
Thus, an optically active vinyl bicycloheptane is obtained from bicycloheptene and ethylene in space-time yields not yet described so ~ar. Said optically active vinyl bicycloheptane in turn may be the starting material ~ox the terpolymerization together with, e.g., -- 8 ~
ethylene and propylene to give polymers, and more part-icularly optically active polymers. Optically active polymers~ due to their high sterical regularity, have ~mproved physical and mechanical properties. Thu~, optically active polymers are suitable as absorben~s for the separation of enantiomers. In the zame manner, an optically active 3-phenylbut~3ne-l is selectively obtainable in high yield from styrene and ethylene by co-dimerization, and so are substituted 3-phenyl-butenes-l from substituted styrenes and ethylene. The polymer~zation of this a-ole~in products to optically active polymers ls effected in the same way as the terpolymerization set forth above.
A further application of the azaphospholenes in the form of the described complex compounds together with organoaluminum compounds is the selective change of the structure of, e.g., heptadiene-1,6 to form l-methyl-2-methylidene cyclopentene, as well as the co-dimerization o~ 1,3-cyclopentadiene and ethylene leading to op ically active 3-phenylpentens-1.

Then ethylene is introduced, and the solution of styrene cooled to -20 ~C by mean~ of a second refrigerating machine is allowed to run in within 6 hours. The reaction temperature is maintained within a range Qf from -60 C to ~65 C. After 7 hours the reaction is terminated by the introduction of gaseous ammonia. The solvent is distilled off under 1 31$~
normal pressure~ and the residue is ~ractioned through a column.
Yield: 4.3 kg ~32.5 mol; 41% of theory; 87.4% e.e.).

Exam~le 16 The procedure is as in Example 1. A 0.5-1 flask is charged with 150 ml of CH2C12, and the dropping ~unnel is filled with 10 g (0.085 mol) of 4-methyl styrene in about 40 ml o~ CH2C12. The solvent is cooled to -70 C with stirring, and 0.109 g ~0.~5 mmol) of ~-allylnickel/phosphane 6a complex in about 20 ml of CH2C12 and 0.115 ml (0.50 mmol) of Et3A12C13 ~P:Ni:A1 = 1:1:4) are added. ~t -70 'C the solution of 4-methylstyrene is dropwise added within 15 minutes, and ethylene is simultaneously introduced into the solut~on. The reaction ~ terminated by introducing gaseous ammonia, and the reaction mixtura i~ condensed off in vacuo. The solvent ~s withdrawn, and the re-~idue is distilled in vacuo.
