Palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of potassium aryl- and heteroaryltrifluoroborates

An extended study of the reactivity of potassium aryl- and heteroaryltrifluoroborates in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions is presented. The coupling of aryl- and electron-rich heteroaryltrifluoroborates with aryl and activated heteroaryl bromides proceeds readily under ligandless conditions. When deactivated aryl- and heteroaryltrifluoroborates are coupled with aryl and heteroaryl bromides and chlorides, a low loading (0.5-2%) of PdCl(2)(dppf).CH(2)Cl(2) efficiently catalyzes the reactions. Under either condition, reactions can generally be carried out in an open atmosphere.

Expanded substrate scope and improved reactivity of ether-forming cross-coupling reactions of organotrifluoroborates and acetals

Mixed acetals and organotrifluoroborates undergo BF(3)·OEt(2)-promoted cross-couplings to give dialkyl ethers under simple, mild conditions. A survey of reaction partners identified a hydroxamate leaving group that improves the regioselectivity and product yield in the BF(3)·OEt(2)-promoted coupling reaction of mixed acetals and potassium alkynyl-, alkenyl-, aryl- and heteroaryltrifluoroborates to access substituted dialkyl ethers. This leaving group enables the reaction to proceed rapidly under mild conditions (0 °C, 5-60 min) and permits reactions with electron-deficient potassium aryltrifluoroborates that are less reactive with other acetal substrates. A study of the reaction mechanism and characterization of key intermediates by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography identified a role for the hydroxamate moiety as a reversible leaving group that serves to stabilize the key oxocarbenium intermediate and the need for a slight excess of organodifluoroborane to serve as a catalyst. A secondary role for the boron nucleophile as an activating ligand was also considered. These studies provide the basis for a general class of reagents that lead to dialkyl ethers by a simple, predictable cross-coupling reaction.

Regiospecific Suzuki coupling of 3,5-dichloroisothiazole-4-carbonitrile

3,5-Dichloroisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 1 react with aryl- and methylboronic acids to give in high yields the 3-chloro-5-(aryl and methyl)-isothiazole-4-carbonitrile 2 regiospecifically. The reaction was optimized with respect to base, phase transfer agent and palladium catalyst. Suzuki coupling at C-5 was also achieved in high yield using potassium phenyltrifluoroborate. The regiospecificity of either coupling method is maintained with 3,5-dibromoisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 4 to give exclusively 3-bromo-5-phenylisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 5. Suzuki cross-coupling conditions applied to 3-chloro-5-phenylisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 2a gave 3-phenoxy-5-phenylisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 6, which was prepared independently, and not the 3-phenyl derivative. All isothiazole products were fully characterized.

Abstract

The phosphorylation of tertiary alcohols can be performed only in some exceptional cases. We established, that phosphorylation of tertiary fluoroalkanols H(CF₂) _nCMe₂OH (I, n = 2,4) with aryl- and polyfluoroalkyl-phosphorodicnlor-idates or aryl- and alkylphosphonic dichlorides in the presence of metal of metal salt catalysts yields chloroan-hydrides (II) and (III). When benzyl phosphorochloridates (IV) are used as phosphorylating agents, either products of phosphorylation or products of alkylation are formed depending on the nature of the substituent in the aromatic ring.
