Dabco as an inexpensive and highly efficient ligand for palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction

An inexpensive and highly efficient Pd(OAc)(2)/Dabco catalytic system has been developed for the cross-coupling of aryl halides with arylboronic acids. A combination of Pd(OAc)(2) and Dabco (triethylenediamine) was observed to form an excellent catalyst, which affords high TONs (turnover numbers; TONs up to 950 000 for the reaction of PhI and p-chlorophenylboronic acid) for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of various aryl iodides and bromides with arylboronic acids.

Recyclable and reusable Pd(OAc)2/DABCO/PEG-400 system for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction

[reaction: see text] A stable and efficient Pd(OAc)2/DABCO (triethylenediamine) catalytic system for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction has been developed. In the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and DABCO, coupling of aryl halides with arylboronic acids was carried out smoothly to afford good to excellent yields and high turnover numbers (TONs) (the maximal TONs were up to 960,000 for the reaction of 1-iodo-4-nitrobenzene with phenylboronic acid) using PEG-400 as the solvent. Moreover, the Pd(OAc)2/DABCO/PEG-400 system could be recycled and reused five times without any loss of catalytic activity for aryl iodides and bromides.     

An efficient Stille cross-coupling reaction catalyzed by Pd(OAc)2/DAB-Cy catalytic system

An efficient palladium-catalyzed Stille cross-coupling reaction has been developed. In the presence of 3 mol% of Pd(dba)₂ and 6 mol% of DAB-Cy (1,4-dicyclohexyl-diazabutadiene), various aryl halides (iodides and bromides) were coupled with organotin compounds to afford the corresponding biaryls and alkyne in good to excellent yields. Furthermore, high TONs [turnover numbers, TONs up to 950,000 for the reaction of 1-iodo-4-nitrobenzene and tributyl(phenyl)stannane] for the Stille cross-coupling reaction were observed.     

Guanidine/Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed room temperature Suzuki cross-coupling reaction in aqueous media under aerobic conditions

A highly efficient Pd(OAc)2/guanidine aqueous system for the room temperature Suzuki cross-coupling reaction has been developed. The new water-soluble and air-stable catalyst Pd(OAc)2.(1f)2 from Pd(OAc)2 and 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-2-n-butylguanidine (1f) was synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. In the presence of Pd(OAc)2.(1f)2, coupling of arylboronic acids with a wide range of aryl halides, including aryl iodides, aryl bromides, even activated aryl chlorides, was carried out smoothly in aqueous solvent to afford the cross-coupling products in good to excellent yields and high turnover numbers (TONs) (TONs up to 850,000 for the reaction of 1-iodo-4-nitrobenzene and phenylboronic acid). Furthermore, this mild protocol could tolerate a broad range of functional groups.     

PEG-400 promoted Pd(OAc)2/DABCO-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions in aqueous media

PEG-400 [poly(ethylene glycol-400)] was found to improve the Pd(OAc)₂/DABCO-catalyzed aqueous Suzuki-Miyaura and Stille cross-coupling reactions. In the presence of Pd(OAc)₂, DABCO, and PEG-400, a variety of aryl halides were coupled with arylboronic acids or organotin compounds efficiently to afford the corresponding cross-coupled products in moderate to excellent yields. The turnover numbers was up to 900,000 for the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction and up to 9800 for the Stille reaction. The catalyst system was also effective for Heck and Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions to some extent.     

Efficient palladium-catalyzed homocoupling reaction and Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction of terminal alkynes under aerobic conditions

An efficient method for palladium-catalyzed homocoupling reaction of terminal alkynes in the synthesis of symmetric diynes is presented. The results showed that both Pd(OAc)(2) and CuI played crucial roles in the reaction. In the presence of 2 mol % Pd(OAc)(2), 2 mol % CuI, 3 equiv of Dabco, and air, homocoupling of various terminal alkynes afforded the corresponding symmetrical diynes in moderate to excellent yields, whereas low yields were obtained without either Pd(OAc)(2) or CuI. Moreover, high TONs (turnover numbers; up to 940 000 for the reaction of phenylacetylene) for the homocoupling reaction were observed. Under similar reaction conditions, cross-coupling of 1-iodo-4-nitrobenzene with phenylacetylene was also carried out smoothly in quantitative yield. However, the presence of CuI disfavored the palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions of the less active aryl iodides and bromides. In the presence of 0.01-2 mol % Pd(OAc)(2), a number of aryl iodides and bromides were coupled with terminal alkynes in good to excellent yields. It is noteworthy that this protocol employs mild, efficient, aerobic, copper-free, and ligand-free conditions.     

Efficient route to 1,3-Di-N-imidazolylbenzene. A comparison of monodentate vs bidentate carbenes in Pd-catalyzed cross coupling

A new bis(carbene) ligand architecture has been developed and was evaluated in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of various aryl halides with phenylboronic acid. Several new bis(carbene) ligands were tested in different carbene:Pd ratios. Pd(OAc)(2) and Pd(2)(dba)(3) were compared for efficiency as a Pd source. It was found that the Pd(OAc)(2)/bis(carbene) system formed a catalyst for the activation of chlorobenzene. [reaction: see text]     

A catalytic and mechanistic investigation of a PCP pincer palladium complex in the Stille reaction

In an improved procedure, the complex {2,6-bis[(diphenylphosphino)methyl]benzene}chloropalladium(II) (1) was synthesised as its THF adduct and the structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. The catalytic properties of the derivative {2,6-bis[(diphenylphosphino)methyl]benzene}(trifluoroacetato)palladium(II) (2) was investigated in the Stille reaction. Complex 2 proves to be an excellent catalyst for the C-C cross-coupling between trimethyl phenyl stannane and aryl bromides using a very low catalyst loading (0.1-0.0001%), giving high turnover numbers (TONs) up to 6.9 x 10(5). A kinetic investigation of the catalytic reaction suggests a heterogeneous colloidal palladium catalyst formed from the PCP Pd(II) pre-catalyst.

The new complex [Pd[t-Bu2PCH2N(CH2Ph)CH2P t-Bu2](OAc)2] is a very efficient catalyst for the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides with acetylenes at room temperature, without co-catalyst.     

Pd2(dba)3/P(i-BuNCH2CH2)3N-catalyzed Stille cross-coupling of aryl chlorides

[reaction: see text] The Pd(2)(dba)(3)/P(i-BuNCH(2)CH(2))(3)N (1d) catalyst system is highly effective for the Stille cross-coupling of aryl chlorides with organotin compounds. This method represents only the second general method for the coupling of aryl chlorides. Other proazaphosphatranes possessing benzyl substituents also generate very active catalysts for Stille reactions. Noteworthy features of the method are: (a) commercial availability of ligand 1d, (b) the wide array of aryl chlorides that can be coupled, and (c) applicability to aryl, vinyl, and allyl tin reagents.     

Pd(OAc)2/DABCO-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction in DMF

The scope and limitations of the Pd(OAc)₂/DABCO (1,4-diaza-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane)-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions have been demonstrated. The results showed that the effect of solvent had a fundamental influence on the reaction. In the presence of Pd(OAc)₂ and DABCO, both aryl bromides and aryl chlorides all worked well with arylboronic acids to form biaryls, heteroaryl-aryls, and biheteroaryls in moderate to excellent yields using DMF as the solvent. Additionally, the reactions of aryl bromides were conducted under relatively mild conditions.     

Convenient and efficient Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling catalyzed by a palladium/diazabutadiene system

[structure: see text]. A Pd(OAc)2/diazabutadiene system has been developed for the catalytic cross-coupling of aryl halides with arylboronic acids. A combination of the diazabutadiene DAB-Cy (1, N,N'-dicyclohexyl-1,4-dizabutadiene) and Pd(OAc)2 was found to form an excellent catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of various aryl bromides and activated aryl chlorides with arylboronic acids.     

Phosphine-free hydrazone-Pd complex as the catalyst precursor for a Suzuki-Miyaura reaction under mild aerobic conditions

[reaction: see text] Glyoxal bis(N-methyl-N-phenylhydrazone) (1) and its related compounds such as 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde N-methyl-N-phenylhydrazone (3) were prepared and examined as ligands for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides and arylboronic acids. We found phosphine-free catalysts, such as Pd(OAc)(2)/hydrazone ligand 1 or 3, to be efficient catalysts for a variety of substrates to produce the coupling products in good yields.     

Carbonylative cross-coupling reaction of ethynylstibane with aryl iodides

Palladium-catalyzed carbonylative cross-coupling reaction of ethynylstibane (PhSbPh(2)) and aryl iodides (Ar-I) is described. The reaction of the stibanes and the halides under 1 atm of carbon monoxide in N,N-dimethylacetamide using a combination of 5 mol% Pd(OAc)(2) and 4 equivalents (20 mol%) of PPh(3) brought about carbonylative cross-coupling reaction to afford arylethynylketones [ArC(O)Ph] in good yields along with a small amount of directly coupled products, aryl acetylens (ArPh). Formation of the side product was completely suppressed by conducting the reaction under high CO pressure (20 atm) conditions. The present method provides a variety of carbonylated products in good yield even with electron-deficient aryl iodides which usually give inferior results due to their tendency to undergo decarbonylation in the cross-coupling reaction of ethynylstibanes and acyl halides.     

Palladium-catalyzed Stille cross-couplings of sulfonyl chlorides and organostannanes

Arene and phenylmethanesulfonyl chlorides can be cross-coupled with aryl, heteroaryl, and alkenylstannanes with desulfitation in the presence of 10 mol % CuBr.Me2S, 1.5 mol % Pd2dba3, and 5 mol % tri-2-furylphosphine in tetrahydrofuran or toluene under reflux. This extension of the Stille cross-coupling reaction realizes a new and economical method for the generation of C-C bonds. The palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Stille cross-coupling reactions of arenesulfonyl chlorides and organostannanes in the presence of CO (60 bar) at 110 degrees C in toluene generate the corresponding ketones. Arenesulfonyl chlorides are more reactive than aryl chlorides and aryl bromides in their Stille cross-coupling with organostannanes but less reactive than aryl iodides. The new methods disclosed for the generation of C-C bonds open new possibilities for medicinal chemistry and material sciences.     

Environmentally‐Safe Conditions for a Palladium‐Catalyzed Direct C3‐Arylation with High Turn Over Frequency of Imidazo[1,2‐b]pyridazines Using Aryl Bromides and Chlorides

Pd(OAc)₂ was found to catalyze very efficiently the direct arylation of imidazo[1,2‐b]pyridazine at C3‐position under a very low catalyst loading and phosphine‐free conditions. The reaction can be performed in very high TOFs and TONs employing as little as 0.1–0.05 mol % catalyst using a wide range of aryl bromides. In addition, some electron‐deficient aryl chlorides were also found to be suitable substrates. Moreover, 31 examples of the cross couplings were reported using green, safe, and renewable solvents, such as pentan‐1‐ol, diethylcarbonate or cyclopentyl methyl ether, without loss of efficiency.

Simultaneous Reduction of Aldehyde Group to Hydroxymethyl Group in Palladium-catalyzed Suzuki Cross-coupling Reaction

The authors presented an efficient method for the palladium-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling reaction with the simultaneous reduction of the aldehyde to a hydroxymethyl group.This method allows halide substituted aryl aldehydes to readily react with arylboronic acids,producing polycyclic aromatic alcohols in moderate to good yields.The reaction was catalyzed by Pd（OAc）2（3％,molar fraction） at 150 ℃ in the presence of 6％（molar fraction）1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane（DABCO） and 3 times the molecular weight of K2CO3 in the mixture solvent of N,N-dimethylformamide（DMF）/H2O [V（DMF）∶ V（H2O）=5∶1].     

Palladium-mediated functionalization of heteroaromatic cations: comparative study on quinolizinium cations

An efficient palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction on heteroaromatic cations is described. A comparative study of the Stille and Suzuki reactions shows that only the Stille reaction is able to produce an efficient C-C bond formation between any of the four isomeric bromoquinolizinium bromides and a variety of stannanes. In the presence of the catalysts Pd(PPh3)4 or Pd2(dba)3P(o-Tol)3, vinyl, ethynyl, aryl, and heteroaryl groups are successfully incorporated into the quinolizinium system in satisfactory yields under mild reaction conditions. This procedure represents a marked improvement on the functionalization of this class of heteroaromatic cation.
