McMurry | Section3 = {{Reactionbox Identifiers | OrganicChemistryNamed = mcmurry-reaction }} The McMurry reaction is an organic reaction in which two ketone or aldehyde groups are coupled to an alkene using a titanium chloride compound such as titanium(III) chloride and a reducing agent.[1] The reaction is named after its co-discoverer, John E. McMurry. The McMurry reaction originally involved the use of a mixture TiCl3 and LiAlH4, which produces the active reagent(s). Related species have been developed involving the combination of TiCl3 or TiCl4 with various other reducing agents, including potassium, zinc, and magnesium.[2][3] This reaction is related to the Pinacol coupling reaction which also proceeds by reductive coupling of carbonyl compounds. Reaction mechanismThis reductive coupling can be viewed as involving two steps. First is the formation of a pinacolate (1,2-diolate) complex, a step which is equivalent to the pinacol coupling reaction. The second step is the deoxygenation of the pinacolate which yields the alkene, this second step exploits the oxophilicity of titanium. Several mechanisms have been discussed for this reaction.[4] Low-valent titanium species induce coupling of the carbonyls by single electron transfer to the carbonyl groups. The required low-valent titanium species are generated via reduction, usually with zinc powder. This reaction is often performed in THF because it solubilizes intermediate complexes, facilitates the electron transfer steps, and is not reduced under the reaction conditions. The nature of low-valent titanium species formed is varied as the products formed by reduction of the precursor titanium halide complex will naturally depend upon both the solvent (most commonly THF or DME) and the reducing agent employed: typically, lithium aluminum hydride,zinc-copper couple, zinc dust, magnesium-mercury amalgam, magnesium, or alkali metals.[5] Bogdanovic and Bolte identified the nature and mode of action of the active species in some classical McMurry systems,[6] and an overview of proposed reaction mechanisms has been published.[4] It is of note that titanium dioxide is not generally a product of the coupling reaction. Although it is true that titanium dioxide is usually the eventual fate of titanium used in these reactions, it is generally formed upon the aqueous workup of the reaction mixture.[5] Background and scopeThe original publication by Mukaiyama demonstrated reductive coupling of ketones using reduced titanium reagents.[7] McMurry and Fleming coupled retinal to give carotene using a mixture of titanium trichloride and lithium aluminium hydride. Other symmetrical alkenes were prepared similarly, e.g. from dihydrocivetone, adamantanone and benzophenone (the latter yielding tetraphenylethylene). A McMurry reaction using titanium tetrachloride and zinc is employed in the synthesis of a first-generation molecular motor.[8] {{clear|left}} In another example, the Nicolaou's total synthesis of Taxol uses this reaction, although coupling stops with the formation of a cis-diol, rather than an olefin. Optimized procedures employ the dimethoxyethane complex of TiCl3 in combination with the Zn(Cu). References1. ^{{cite journal | title = New method for the reductive coupling of carbonyls to olefins.
