The kinetics of the reactions of bis-acceptor-substituted benzyl anions (PhCXY–, X,Y = CN, CO2Et, COPh, SO2Ph) with benzhydrylium ions and quinone methides (reference electrophiles) have been determined in dimethyl sulfoxide solution at 20 °C. The reactions follow second-order kinetics, first order with respect to the electrophile and first order with respect to the carbanion. The addition of 18-crown-6 ether, which efficiently coordinates to the anions' counter ions K+, did not affect the kinetics, which indicates that the measured rate constants refer to the reactivities of the nonpaired carbanions. Comparison with the reactivities of the structurally analogous secondary carbanions HCXY– shows that replacement of H at the carbanionic center by Ph reduces the nucleophilic reactivities towards a reference benzhydrylium ion by factors in the range of only 1.2 (X,Y = SO2Ph) to 6 (X,Y = CO2Et). The plots of lg k2 versus the electrophilicity parameters E of the reference electrophiles are linear, thereby indicating that the correlation lg k2(20 °C) = sN(E + N), which characterizes nucleophiles by the two solvent-dependent parameters sN and N and electrophiles by the parameter E, is applicable. In this way, it becomes possible to integrate these carbanions into our comprehensive nucleophilicity scale, which provides a direct comparison of the nucleophilic reactivities of different families of compounds.

Copper complexes of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-dione and other β-diketones afford α-aryl-β-diketones when treated with arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates and copper powder in dichloromethane.

Aryl aldehydes react with methyl thiocyanate in the presence of tributylphosphine to afford S-methyl thiobenzoates and arylacetonitriles in good yields.This is a novel disproportionation reaction involving carbon-carbon bond formation.These compounds thus obtained are easily converted into deoxybenzoins using sodium hydride.On the other hand, p-dialkylaminobenzaldehydes react with methyl thiocyanate under the same conditions to furnish both the corresponding trans-dicyanostilbenes and succinonitriles in moderate yields.Finally, the reaction was carried out with aryl thiocyanates resulting in the formation of addition products.
