Amino acid promoted CuI-catalyzed C-N bond formation between aryl halides and amines or N-containing heterocycles

CuI-catalyzed coupling reaction of electron-deficient aryl iodides with aliphatic primary amines occurs at 40 degrees C under the promotion of N-methylglycine. Using l-proline as the promoter, coupling reaction of aryl iodides or aryl bromides with aliphatic primary amines, aliphatic cyclic secondary amines, or electron-rich primary arylamines proceeds at 60-90 degrees C; an intramolecular coupling reaction between aryl chloride and primary amine moieties gives indoline at 70 degrees C; coupling reaction of aryl iodides with indole, pyrrole, carbazole, imidazole, or pyrazole can be carried out at 75-90 degrees C; and coupling reaction of electron-deficient aryl bromides with imidazole or pyrazole occurs at 60-90 degrees C to provide the corresponding N-aryl products in good to excellent yields. In addition, N,N-dimethylglycine promotes the coupling reaction of electron-rich aryl bromides with imidazole or pyrazole to afford the corresponding N-aryl imidazoles or pyrazoles at 110 degrees C. The possible action of amino acids in these coupling reactions is discussed.

Rapid and efficient Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira coupling of aryl chlorides

An efficient and effective microwave-assisted cross-coupling of terminal alkynes with various aryl chlorides including sterically hindered, electron-rich, electron-neutral, and electron-deficient aryl chloride is developed. It proceeds faster and generally gives good to excellent yields and also can be extended successfully to the Suzuki coupling and Buchwald-Hartwig amination, as well as the Heck coupling with inert aryl chlorides. The short reaction times and simple reaction conditions coupling with a broad substrate scope render this method particularly attractive for the efficient preparation of biologically and medicinally interesting molecules.

Efforts directed toward the synthesis of colchicine: application of palladium-catalyzed siloxane cross-coupling methodology

[reaction: see text] Colchicine is an important and synthetically challenging natural product. The key synthetic step in this approach to the synthesis of colchicine involved a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between 5-bromotropolone (4) and an aryl siloxane to form the aryl-tropolone bond. The coupling of a variety of highly functionalized aryl siloxane derivatives was investigated and optimized coupling conditions were developed. It was discovered that a palladium catalyst with a high degree of phosphine ligand coordination (5 equiv of phosphine/mol Pd) was necessary to efficiently couple aryl siloxanes with 5-bromotropolone (4). In addition, the coupling approach has provided a direct comparison between siloxane and boronic acid coupling technologies that demonstrated that aryl siloxanes and boronic acids produce similar yields of highly functionalized biaryl products.     

Palladium-catalyzed oxidative coupling of trialkylamines with aryl iodides leading to alkyl aryl ketones

A new, simple method for selectively synthesizing alkyl aryl ketones has been developed by palladium-catalyzed oxidative coupling of trialkylamines with aryl iodides. In the presence of PdCl(2)(MeCN)(2), TBAB, and ZnO, a variety of aryl iodides underwent an oxidative coupling reaction with tertiary amines and water to afford the corresponding alkyl aryl ketones in moderate to excellent yields. It is noteworthy that this method is the first example of using trialkylamines as the carbonyl sources for constructing alkyl aryl ketone skeletons.     

CuI-catalyzed coupling reaction of beta-amino acids or esters with aryl halides at temperature lower than that employed in the normal Ullmann reaction. Facile synthesis of SB-214857

[reaction: see text] The CuI-catalyzed coupling reaction of aryl halides with beta-amino acids or beta-amino esters is completed at 100 degrees C in 48 h, which indicates that the structure of the beta-amino acid has an accelerating effect for the Ullmann-type aryl amination reaction. This coupling reaction can be used to prepare enantiopure N-aryl beta-amino acids. An efficient synthetic route to SB214857, a potent GPIIb/IIIa receptor antagonist, is developed using this method.     

Transition-metal-free Suzuki-type coupling reactions: scope and limitations of the methodology

The scope and limitations of the transition-metal-free Suzuki-type coupling of aryl halides and arylboronic acids to form biaryls are presented. Confirmation that the reaction is indeed metal-free is presented. The effects of changing base, solvent, reaction temperature, phase-transfer catalyst, and substrate are shown and the implications of these results discussed in terms of their impact on the synthetic versatility of the methodology. The main findings are that the reaction works well for aryl bromides, water is necessary as a solvent for the reaction, the optimum temperature for the reaction is 150 degrees C, the reaction is best performed by using microwave promotion with the exception of an electron-poor aryl bromide example where conventional heating may be used, only limited boronic acids can be used as coupling partners, sodium carbonate is the best base for the reaction, tetrabutylammonium bromide proves to be the best phase-transfer catalyst for the reaction, the reaction is limited to couplings between aryl halides and aryl boronic acids with sp(2)-sp(3) couplings proving ineffective, and NaBPh(4) can be used in the place of phenylboronic acid as a phenylating agent.

Light‐Promoted Nickel Catalysis: Etherification of Aryl Electrophiles with Alcohols Catalyzed by a NiII‐Aryl Complex

A highly effective C?O coupling reaction of (hetero)aryl electrophiles with primary and secondary alcohols is reported. Catalyzed by a Ni^II‐aryl complex under long‐wave UV (390–395 nm) irradiation in the presence of a soluble amine base without any additional photosensitizer, the reaction enables the etherification of aryl bromides and aryl chlorides as well as sulfonates with a wide range of primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols, affording synthetically important ethers. Intramolecular C?O coupling is also possible. The reaction appears to proceed via a Ni^I–Ni^III catalytic cycle.     

CuI-catalyzed direct synthesis of diaryl thioethers from aryl boronic acids and arylsulfonyl chlorides

A CuI-catalyzed direct coupling of aryl boronic acids with arylsulfonyl chlorides for the preparation of diaryl thioethers was developed. The reaction is initiated by a PPh₃ reduction of the arylsulfonyl chloride, followed by a CuI-catalyzed C–S coupling with an aryl boronic acid. Various arylsulfonyl chlorides can directly serve as a sulfur source in this mild and efficient reaction giving the desired products in moderate to good yields. Moreover, this practical method has also been applied to the thioetherification of aryl iodides and acetylacetones.

The palladium-catalyzed three-component coupling of aryl iodides, sulfur dioxide, and hydrazines to deliver aryl N-aminosulfonamides is described. The colorless crystalline solid DABCO·(SO(2))(2) was used as a convenient source of sulfur dioxide. The reaction tolerates significant variation of both the aryl iodide and hydrazine coupling partners.     

Single‐Electron‐Transfer‐Induced Coupling of Arylzinc Reagents with Aryl and Alkenyl Halides

Arylzinc reagents, prepared from aryl halides/zinc powder or aryl Grignard reagents/zinc chloride, were found to undergo coupling with aryl and alkenyl halides without the aid of transition‐metal catalysis to give biaryls and styrene derivatives, respectively. In this context, we have already reported the corresponding reaction using aryl Grignard reagents instead of arylzinc reagents. Compared with the Grignard cross‐coupling, the present reaction features high functional‐group tolerance, whereby electrophilic groups such as alkoxycarbonyl and cyano groups are compatible as substituents on both the arylzinc reagents and the aryl halides. Aryl halides receive a single electron and thereby become activated as the corresponding anion radicals, which react with arylzinc reagents, thus leading to the cross‐coupling products.     

Pd‐NHC‐Catalyzed Alkynylation of General Aryl Sulfides with Alkynyl Grignard Reagents

Cross‐coupling reactions of unactivated aryl sulfides with alkynylmagnesium chloride have been invented to afford 1‐aryl‐1‐alkynes with the aid of a palladium/N‐heterocyclic carbene complex. This reaction has by far the widest scope of all transformations utilizing aryl sulfides and alkynes, while known cross‐coupling alkynylations of aryl‐sulfur electrophiles require activated azaaryl sulfides, thiolactams, or arenesulfonyl chlorides. The alkynylation of aryl sulfides is compatible with typical protecting functional groups. The alkynylation is applied to the synthesis of benzofuran‐based fluorescent molecules by taking advantage of characteristic organosulfur chemistry.

CuI/N-methylglycine-catalyzed coupling reaction of guanidine nitrate with both aryl iodides and bromides takes place at 70-100 °C, affording symmetrical N,N'-diaryl guanidines with good to excellent yields. Unsymmetrical N,N'-diaryl guanidines can be assembled via monoarylation of guanidine nitrate with aryl iodides bearing a strong electron-withdrawing group and subsequent coupling with another aryl iodide.     

Synthesis of 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones from aryl 3-bromopropenoates via a sequential one-pot procedure using the Sonogashira coupling-benzannulation reaction

Various kinds of 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones 4 were synthesized via a sequential one-pot procedure using the Sonogashira coupling-benzannulation reaction of aryl 3-bromopropenoates 1, in which the ortho-position of aryl group is substituted with enynes or iodine, with acetylenes 2 in the presence of palladium and copper catalysts. The Sonogashira coupling between the aryl 3-bromopropenoates 1a and 1b, bearing enynes at the ortho-position of aryl group, and alkynes 2a-g gave the enyne intermediates 3 in situ, which subsequently underwent the palladium-catalyzed benzannulation reaction to afford the 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones 5a-g and 6. The Sonogashira coupling between the aryl 3-bromopropenoate 1c, bearing iodine at the ortho-position of aryl group, and diynes 2f and 2h produced the diyne intermediates 13, which underwent the benzannulation reaction to afford the 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-ones 14f and 14h.
