腈鈉
腈鈉是指腈類化合物和鈉離子形成的鹽,這類鹽被認為是反應中存在的中間體。腈鈉可由腈和氨基鈉、取代氨基鈉或金屬鈉反應得到。但由於腈鈉的高度不穩定性,其固體的分離特別困難。[1]
乙腈鈉
乙腈鈉(NaCH2CN,Mr=63.0)被認為是一種白色固體,可由乙腈和NaN(SiMe3)2反應得到:[2]
- CH3CN + 3 NaN(SiMe3)2 —乙醚→ NaCH2CN + HN(SiMe3)2 + 2 NaN(SiMe3)2
該反應中,乙腈只有1個氫原子被鈉取代。
由於乙腈的α-H具有一定的酸性,因此與氨基鈉在液氨中反應,生成了一種被認為是NaCH2CN·xNH3或(CH2CN)-Na+·xNH3的產物。但當這種化合物在液氨中結晶時,產生的卻是CH3C(=NH)NHNa(脒的鈉鹽)。[3]
乙腈鈉可以和鹵代烴反應:
- NaCH2CN + RX → NaX + RCH2CN
苯乙腈鈉
苯乙腈鈉(C16H13N2Na,Mr=256.3)可由苯乙腈和金屬鈉直接反應得到,其產物為二聚體的鈉鹽:[1]
- 3 C6H5CH2CN + 2 Na → NaCN + C6H5CH3 + C16H13N2Na
Fred等認為苯乙腈鈉的結構應該是(C6H5)HC=C=N-Na(Mr=139.1)[4]:
- 2 (C6H5)H-C=C=N-H + 2 Na → 2 (C6H5)H-C=C=N-Na
- (C6H5)H-C=C=N-Na + H2 → C6H5CH3 + NaCN (副反應)
- 2 (C6H5)H-C=C=N-Na → NaCN + (C6H5)H-C=C-H(C6H5)
它和空氣中的氧氣反應,得到苯甲酸和氰化鈉:
- 2 (C6H5)H-C=C=N-Na + O2 → C6H5COOH + NaCN
腈的其它金屬鹽
苯乙腈和鉀的反應可以得到相應的鉀鹽,反應按如下方程式發生:[5]
- 2 C6H5CH2CN + 2 K → 2 C6H5HC=C=NK + H2
產物C6H5HC=C=NK對水蒸氣和二氧化碳敏感,酸會將其分解,放出氰化氫。它和(C6H5)(CN)HCK有着互變異構,雖然該異構體不佔主導,但能夠和碘乙烷反應,產生該異構體的取代物:
- (C6H5)(CN)HCK + C2H5I → (C6H5)(CN)HC(C2H5) + KI
腈的鎂、銅[6]、鋅鹽[7]也被製得,它們和鈉鹽一樣,都是很強的親核試劑。這些腈的金屬鹽中碳氮鍵的三鍵性質之外,通過X射線分析,還有部分碳碳雙鍵的性質。[8]
