Highly efficient synthesis of linear pyrrole oligomers by twofold Heck reactions

The twofold Heck reaction of the vinylpyrroles 3a and 3b with the iodobenzenes 4a-c led to the linear pyrrole oligomers 5, 6, and 7. The synthesis of both symmetrical and unsymmetrical oligomers, such as 10a and 10b, was also accomplished by a Heck reaction of 8 and 9 and by a Heck reaction of 3a and 11 followed by a Wittig reaction and a second Heck reaction with 8. The pentacyclic oligomers 14 and 19 were prepared by a twofold Heck reaction of 13 with 4 and by a twofold Heck reaction of 15 with 16 followed by a Wittig reaction and a twofold Heck reaction with 8.

A ligand-free Heck reaction catalyzed by the in situ-generated palladium nanoparticles in PEG-400

<正>A ligand-free Heck reaction catalyzed by in situ-generated palladium nanoparticles in PEG-400 has been developed.This catalytic system is a simple and active protocol for the Heck reaction of aryl halides under mild conditions.Comparative experiments demonstrated that the Heck reaction catalyzed by the palladium nanoparticles in situ-generated under the Heck reaction conditions was carried out much quicker than that by the in ex situ-generated ones.     

Deaminative (Carbonylative) Alkyl‐Heck‐type Reactions Enabled by Photocatalytic C−N Bond Activation

The palladium‐catalyzed Heck reaction is a well‐known, Nobel Prize winning transformation for producing alkenes. Unlike the alkenyl and aryl variants of the Heck reaction, the alkyl‐Heck reaction is still underdeveloped owing to the competitive side reactions of alkyl–palladium species. Herein, we describe the development of a deaminative alkyl‐Heck‐type reaction that proceeds through C?N bond activation by visible‐light photoredox catalysis. A variety of aliphatic primary amines were found to be efficient starting materials for this new process, affording the corresponding alkene products in good yields under mild reaction conditions. Moreover, this strategy was successfully applied to deaminative carbonylative alkyl‐Heck‐type reactions.     

The first examples of the enantioselective Heck–Matsuda reaction: arylation of unactivated cyclic olefins using chiral bisoxazolines

Successful enantioselective Heck–Matsuda arylations were accomplished for the first time using chiral bisoxazolines as ligands. Enantioselective Heck arylations were performed with several cyclic nonactivated olefins to provide the Heck products in 63–96% isolated yields and in enantiomeric excesses of 54% up to 84%.     

Heck reaction with an acyl synthon: new coupling reaction between α-halo vinyl ether and alkene

α-Halo vinyl ethers were successfully applied to palladium-catalyzed Heck reaction. Reactions of α-halo vinyl ether with alkenes under various Heck conditions form a new carbon-carbon bond along with a vinyl ether functionality, which can be further manipulated. This is the first synthetic methodology for the coupling of an acyl synthon with alkene employing Heck reaction.     

A mechanistic study on modern palladium catalyst precursors as new gateways to Pd(0) in cationic Heck reactions

Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was used as a means to directly identify catalytic cationic organopalladium species in ligand-controlled Heck reactions involving electron-rich olefins and different Pd-sources. In these high-temperature Heck arylations, the oxidative addition intermediates were observed as bidentate ligand chelated cationic aryl palladium species, suggesting that the used ligand attaches to the metal center at the very beginning of the catalytic cycle. This was also in agreement with the obtained regioisomeric profile of the isolated products. The investigation supports the standard Pd(0)/Pd(II) Heck mechanism and provides further insight regarding the conceivable composition of fundamental Pd(II) intermediates in an ongoing Heck reaction.

Electrochemically assisted Heck reactions

[reaction: see text] During efforts to develop chip-based Heck reaction chemistry, it was discovered that normal solution-phase Heck reactions can be dramatically accelerated using electrochemistry. The acceleration makes room temperature Heck reactions proceed at synthetically useful rates in the absence of added ligand. Presumably, the current passed through the reaction maintains a high level of active catalyst.

The synthesis of non‐symmetrical stilbene analogs of trans‐resveratrol using the same Pd catalyst in a sequential double‐Heck arylation of ethylene

We have developed a sequential and selective Pd‐catalyzed double‐Heck arylation of ethylene that results in non‐symmetrical nitro‐stilbene analogs of trans‐resveratrol at excellent yields. A catalytic system consisting of Pd(OAc)₂ and P(o‐tolyl)₃ permitted us to carry out the two consecutive Heck arylations without losing activity from the first to the second Heck reaction. After the first Heck arylation of ethylene, no isolation or additional catalyst loading is required for the second Heck arylation reaction. This protocol was applied to the synthesis of methylated trans‐resveratrol, which was obtained at a 65% overall yield. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Ligand promoted and controlled palladium-catalyzed intramolecular Heck reaction of homoallyl alcohols: a facile synthesis of cyclopentaannulated quinolines

Bidentate phosphine ligands in palladium-catalyzed intramolecular Heck reactions of 2-chloroquinolin-3-yl-(1-homoallyl)alcohols are described to afford facile synthesis of 3-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]quinolines in improved yields. We further observed using bulky aromatic phosphine ligand in Pd-catalyzed intermolecular Heck coupling reaction at olefinic centers with iodobenzene also favored exclusively Heck products in excellent yield.     

Enantioselective total synthesis of the oral contraceptive desogestrel by a double Heck reaction

A novel enantioselective total synthesis of the oral contraceptive desogestrel (2) is described, in which the tetracyclic steroid core is formed by a sequence of two consecutive Heck reactions. Conversion of the known enantiopure diketone 7 led to the chiral bicycle 6 which was used for a diastereoselective intermolecular Heck reaction with vinyliodide 5 to give 15. In the following intramolecular Heck reaction, the tetracyclic ring system was formed to give 4, from which the synthesis of desogestrel (2) was furnished.

We synthesized 2-arylquinolines and tetrahydropyridines via palladium-mediated Heck type reactions starting from the Baylis-Hillman adducts. 2-Arylquinolines were prepared via the Heck type cyclization followed by concomitant aerobic oxidation.     

Efficient aqueous-phase Heck and Suzuki couplings of aryl bromides using tri(4,6-dimethyl-3- sulfonatophenyl)phosphine trisodium salt (TXPTS)

[reaction: see text] Sterically demanding, sulfonated arylphosphines TXPTS and TMAPTS have been applied to the aqueous-phase Heck and Suzuki coupling of aryl bromides. TXPTS provides good yields of Heck coupling products from aryl bromides at 80 degrees C, while both TMAPTS and TPPTS gave significantly less active catalysts. TXPTS is the first ligand to promote the aqueous-phase Heck coupling under such mild conditions. Both TXPTS and TMAPTS provide active catalysts for Suzuki couplings of aryl bromides at 50 degrees C.

Heterogeneous Versus Homogeneous Palladium Catalysts for Ligandless Mizoroki–Heck Reactions: A Comparison of Batch/Microwave and Continuous‐Flow Processing

Mizoroki–Heck couplings of aryl iodides and bromides with butyl acrylate were investigated as model systems to perform transition‐metal‐catalyzed transformations in continuous‐flow mode. As a suitable ligandless catalyst system for the Mizoroki–Heck couplings both heterogeneous and homogeneous Pd catalysts (Pd/C and Pd acetate) were considered. In batch mode, full conversion with excellent selectivity for coupling was achieved applying high‐temperature microwave conditions with Pd levels as low as 10^?3 mol %. In continuous‐flow mode with Pd/C as a catalyst, significant Pd leaching from the heterogeneous catalyst was observed as these Mizoroki–Heck couplings proceed by a homogeneous mechanism involving soluble Pd colloids/nanoparticles. By applying low levels of Pd acetate as homogeneous Pd precatalyst, successful continuous‐flow Mizoroki–Heck transformations were performed in a high‐temperature/pressure flow reactor. For both aryl iodides and bromides, high isolated product yields of the cinnamic esters were obtained. Mechanistic issues involving the Pd‐catalyzed Mizoroki–Heck reactions are discussed.
