1,3-Dicarbonyl compounds as phosphine-free ligands for Pd-catalyzed Heck and Suzuki reactions

Some 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (such as pentane-2,4-dione and 3-oxo-N-phenylbutanamide) were found to constitute highly efficient, yet low-priced and phosphine-free ligands for the Pd-catalyzed Heck and Suzuki reactions of aryl bromides and iodides with very high turnover numbers (ca. 103-104).     

Preparation of a titania‐supported highly dispersed palladium nano‐catalyst and its application in Suzuki and Heck coupling reactions

In this work, palladium complexes nanoparticles in titania are prepared by a pH‐controlled adsorption and without pH‐controlled adsorption method. This method results in high‐dispersion palladium on the titania surface. We demonstrate the use of the titania‐supported palladium as an efficient catalyst for Suzuki and Heck reactions of a representative range of aryl bromides and chlorides. The reusability of catalyst was tested, and deactivation process of the catalyst was not observed after four recycles. The catalysts were characterized by FT‐IR, NMR, elemental analysis, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X‐ray diffraction.

Efficient and ligand free palladium catalyst for Suzuki and Heck cross-coupling reactions

A simple and efficient system for Suzuki cross-coupling reactions was developed using a ligandless catalyst of Pd nanoclusters generated in situ from Pd(acac)₂. The cross-coupling reactions proceeded under mild reaction conditions with a high reaction rate (5 min) to give various biaryls in high yields. The system also exhibited catalytic potential for Heck reaction between aryl bromides and styrene.     

Controlled mono and double Heck reactions in water catalyzed by an oxime-derived palladacycle

The mono and β,β-diarylation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with electron-deficient and electron-rich aromatic iodides in water is described. These reactions are catalyzed by the p-hydroxyacetophenone oxime-derived palladacycle 1 by controlling the stoichiometry of the aryl iodide and the alkene as well as the loading of the palladium catalyst. This one-pot protocol is performed in refluxing water and (dicyclohexyl)methylamine as base under thermal or microwave conditions and in the absence of an inert atmosphere.

Palladium incorporated on carbonaceous catalyst for Suzuki coupling reaction in water

A new palladium incorporated carbonaceous catalyst Pd@CCSO₃HNH₂ was synthesized by introducing palladium on glucose derived carbocatalyst. The catalyst was well characterized and was used for the Suzuki coupling of phenyl boronic acid with different aryl halides under aqueous conditions. This green methodology represents a ligand free, cost-effective and operationally convenient method for the synthesis of a variety of biaryl’s under the conditions that are tolerant for a broad range of functional groups with good to excellent yields. Moreover, the catalyst could be easily recycled and reused at least five times without any significant loss of its catalytic activity.

Three pendant benzamidines [Ph-C(NC₆H₅)-{NH(CH₂)₂NMe₂}] (1), [Ph-C(NC₆H₅)-{NH(CH₂Py)}] (2) and [Ph-C(NC₆H₅)-{NH(o-C₆H₄)(oxazoline)}] (3) are described. Reactions of 1, 2 or 3 with one molar equivalent of Pd(OAc)₂ in THF give the palladacyclic complexes [Ph-C{-NH(η¹-C₆H₄)}{N(CH₂)₂NMe₂}]Pd(OAc) (4), [Ph-C{-NH(η¹-C₆H₄)}{N (CH₂Py)}]Pd(OAc) (5) and [Ph-C{-NH(η¹-C₆H₄)}{N(o-C₆H₄)(oxazoline)}]Pd(OAc) (6), respectively. Treatment of 4, 5 or 6 with excess of LiCl in chloroform affords [Ph-C{-NH(η¹-C₆H₄)}{N(CH₂)₂NMe₂}]PdCl (7), [Ph-C{-NH(η¹-C₆H₄)}{N(CH₂Py)}]PdCl (8) and [Ph-C{-NH(η¹-C₆H₄)}{N(o-C₆H₄)(oxazoline)}]PdCl (9).

Palladaphosphacyclobutenes as catalysts in Heck and Suzuki reactions

Heck reactions of aryl halides with various olefins and Suzuki reactions of aryl halides with phenylboronic acid catalyzed by palladaphosphacyclobutene have been investigated. The scope of the Heck reaction has been investigated in N,N‐dimethylacetamide at 140 °C using NaOAc as base. Using 0.1% molar ratio of palladaphosphacyclobuyenes, aryl bromides were converted into 1,2‐substitutedethene products in good to high yields through coupling with both vinylarenes and acrylates. Actived aryl chloride reacted with styrene to afford 1,2‐substitutedethene products in moderate yields. The scope of the Suzuki reaction has been conducted in toluene at 110 °C using Cs₂CO₃ as base. Using 0.1% molar ratio of palladaphosphacyclobutene, aryl bromides reacted with phenylboronic acid to afford diaryl derivatives in excellent yield. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Kinetics of vinylation of 4′-bromoacetophenone with n-butyl acrylate using palladacycle catalyst

The kinetics of vinylation of 4′-bromoacetophenone (4′-BAP) with n-butyl acrylate (n-BA) has been studied using palladacycle catalyst precursor 1, in the presence of sodium acetate (NaOAc) as a base and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a promoter in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) solvent. The rate was found to be first order with respect to 4′-BAP, fractional order with the catalyst, and first order tending to zero order with NaOAc concentration. The rates passed through a maximum with variation of TBAB and n-butyl acrylate concentrations. The rate data have been analyzed to propose an empirical model, which is in good agreement with the mechanism already established for Heck reactions using palladacycle catalysts.     

Synthesis and applications of a new palladacycle as a high active catalyst in the Suzuki couplings

The reaction of biphenyl-based phosphine P(o-C₆H₄Me)Ph₂ (1) with Pd(OAc)₂ in toluene affords the air and water stable palladacycle (2) as a binuclear compound which has been characterized by multi-nuclear NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis as a mixture of cis and trans isomers with relative intensity of 1:3, respectively. This palladacycle is a highly efficient catalyst precursor for the coupling of aryl boronic acids and aryl halides. Both activated and deactivated aryl bromides and chlorides are efficiently coupled in the presence of 2 to furnish the corresponding cross-coupled products in excellent yields, and a wide variety of functional groups are tolerated in aryl halides. This methodology has also been extended for the coupling of bromoarylphosphines and bromoarylphosphine oxides with aryl boronic acids for the generation of hindered corresponding products.

Ligand effects in palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki and Heck coupling reactions

A range of sterically hindered diimine ligands and their palladium (II) complexes were synthesized. These compounds were fully characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H and ¹³C‐NMR spectroscopy. The use of the palladium complexes as catalysts for Suzuki and Heck coupling has been studied in an attempt to demonstrate the effect of side groups on catalytic activity. It was clearly seen that the location of side ? CH₃ groups which bound to benzene ring had little effect on catalytic activity. Interestingly when we changed these ? CH₃ groups with ? Cl groups the activity of the complexes increased. On the other hand, side groups which bound to imine nitrogen also had a large effect on catalytic activity.
