Abstract: | The rates and products of addition of benzeneselenenyl chloride to ethylene and its six Me substituted derivatives have been determined in methylene chloride at 25°. Unlike the addition of 4-chlorobenzenesulfenyl chloride to this same series of compounds, the effect of Me groups on the rates of addition is not cumulative. Also the regiochemistry of the product is different. For arenesulfenyl chloride additions, products of anti-Markownikoff orientation are formed preferentially under conditions of kinetic control. Under similar conditions regiospecific formation of the Markownikoff adduct is observed for the addition of benzeneselenenyl chloride to methylpropene and 2-methyl-2-butene. These data indicate a difference in both rate and product determining transition states between additions of arenesulfenyl and selenenyl chlorides to alkenes. |
