Baylis-Hillman Reaction
This coupling of an activated alkene derivative with an aldehyde is catalyzed by a tertiary amine (for example: DABCO = 1,4-Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane). Phosphines can also be used in this reaction, and enantioselective reactions may be carried out if the amine or phosphine catalyst is asymmetric.
Mechanism of the Baylis-Hillman Reaction
A key step is the addition of the amine catalyst to the activated alkene to form a stabilized nucleophilic anion. This in situ-generated nucleophile then adds to the aldehyde. Subsequent elimination of the catalyst leads to the observed products.
Other activating nitrogen nucleophiles may be suitable too and DMAP and DBU are superior to DABCO in some cases:
product of the addition of DBU and
methylacrylate
For aryl aldehydes under polar, nonpolar, and protic conditions, it has been determined that the rate-determining step is second-order in aldehyde and first-order in DABCO and acrylate. On the basis of this reaction rate data, Tyler McQuade recently proposed (J. Org. Chem. 2005, 70, 3980. DOI) the following mechanism involving the formation of a hemiacetal intermediate:
