A General Synthesis of Alkenyl‐Substituted Benzofurans,Indoles, and Isoquinolones by Cascade Palladium‐Catalyzed Heterocyclization/Oxidative Heck Coupling

Structurally diverse C3‐alkenylbenzofurans, C3‐alkenylindoles, and C4‐alkenylisoquinolones are efficiently prepared by using consecutive Sonogashira and cascade Pd‐catalyzed heterocyclization/oxidative Heck couplings from readily available ortho‐iodosubstituted phenol, aniline, and benzamide substrates, alkynes, and functionalized olefins. The cyclization of O‐ and N‐heteronucleophiles follows regioselective 5‐endo‐dig‐ or 6‐endo‐dig‐cyclization modes, whereas the subsequent Heck‐type coupling with both mono‐ and disubstituted olefins takes place stereoselectively with exclusive formation of the E isomers in most cases.

Construction of Quaternary Stereocenters by Nickel‐Catalyzed Heck Cyclization Reactions

A nickel‐catalyzed Heck cyclization for the construction of quaternary stereocenters is reported. This transformation is demonstrated in the synthesis of 3,3‐disubstituted oxindoles, which are prevalent motifs seen in numerous biologically active molecules. The method shows broad scope, proceeds in synthetically useful yields, and provides a rare means to construct stereochemically complex frameworks by nonprecious‐metal catalysis.     

Regio‐ and Stereoselective Synthesis of Functionalized Dihydropyridines,Pyridines, and 2H‐Pyrans: Heck Coupling of Monocyclopropanated Heterocycles

A palladium‐catalyzed coupling between aryl halides and monocyclopropanated pyrroles or furans has been developed, leading to valuable six‐membered N‐ and O‐heterocycles. As the key step, a selective cleavage of the non‐activated endocyclic C?C bond of the 2‐heterobicyclo‐[3.1.0]hexane framework is achieved. The developed method offers access to highly functionalized piperidines, pyridines, and pyrans that are challenging to access by traditional methods.     

Intramolecular Heck cyclization to the galanthamine-type alkaloids: total synthesis of (±)-lycoramine

A novel approach towards the construction of the galanthamine skeleton was demonstrated by the total synthesis of (±)-lycoramine. The key steps include a Pd-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization to form the seven-membered azepane ring and a spontaneous intramolecular Michael addition to afford the five-membered furan ring. This synthetic route has also been demonstrated to be useful for the preparation of novel derivatives with simplified galanthamine skeletons.     

Mizoroki–Heck and Suzuki–Miyaura reactions mediated by poly(2‐acrylamido‐2‐methyl‐1‐propanesulfonic acid)‐stabilized magnetically separable palladium catalyst

The purpose of this work was to synthesize and characterize a new magnetic polymer nanosphere‐supported palladium(II) acetate catalyst for reactions requiring harsh conditions. In this regard, an air‐stable, moisture‐stable and highly efficient heterogenized palladium was synthesized by the coordination of palladium(II) acetate with poly(2‐acrylamido‐2‐methyl‐1‐propanesulfonic acid)‐grafted modified magnetic nanoparticles with a core–shell structure. The structure of the newly developed catalyst was characterized using various techniques. The catalytic activity of the resultant nano‐organometallic catalyst was evaluated in Mizoroki–Heck and Suzuki–Miyaura reactions to afford the corresponding coupling products in good to excellent yields. High selectivity as well as outstanding turnover number (14 143, 4900) and turnover frequency (28 296, 7424) values were recorded for the catalyst in Suzuki–Miyaura and Mizoroki–Heck reactions, respectively. Magnetic separation and recycling of the catalyst for at least six runs became possible without any significant loss of efficiency or any detectable palladium leaching.     

Heck and oxidative boron Heck reactions employing Pd(II) supported amphiphilized polyethyleneimine‐functionalized MCM‐41 (MCM‐41@aPEI‐Pd) as an efficient and recyclable nanocatalyst

A novel nanocatalyst was developed based on covalent surface functionalization of MCM‐41 with polyethyleneimine (PEI) using [3‐(2,3‐Epoxypropoxy)propyl] trimethoxysilane (EPO) as a cross‐linker. Amine functional groups on the surface of MCM‐41 were then conjugated with iodododecane to render an amphiphilic property to the catalyst. Palladium (II) was finally immobilized onto the MCM‐41@PEI‐dodecane and the resulted MCM‐41@aPEI‐Pd nanocatalyst was characterized by FT‐IR, TEM, ICP‐AES and XPS. Our designed nanocatalyst with a distinguished core‐shell structure and Pd²⁺ ions as catalytic centers was explored as an efficient and recyclable catalyst for Heck and oxidative boron Heck coupling reactions. In Heck coupling reaction, the catalytic activity of MCM‐41@aPEI‐Pd in the presence of triethylamine as base led to very high yields and selectivity. Meanwhile, the MCM‐41@aPEI‐Pd as the first semi‐heterogeneous palladium catalyst was examined in the C‐4 regioselective arylation of coumarin via the direct C‐H activation and the moderate to excellent yields were obtained toward different functional groups. Leaching test indicated the high stability of palladium on the surface of MCM‐41@aPEI‐Pd as it could be recycled for several runs without significant loss of its catalytic activity.     

Efficient Pd‐Catalyzed Allene Synthesis from Alkynes and Aryl Bromides through an Intramolecular Base‐Assisted Deprotonation (iBAD) Mechanism

An optimized ligand‐controlled palladium‐catalyzed allene synthesis starting from alkynes and aryl bromides giving rise to allene products in a simple and direct manner is described. The methodology is performed in an inter‐ and intramolecular fashion with unprecedented scope and excellent yields. Based on mechanistic investigations and on DFT calculations, the role played by the carboxylic additive (i.e., PivOH) in controlling the selectivity of the reaction is discussed, allowing us to propose an intramolecular base‐assisted deprotonation (iBAD) mechanism for this process.     

Biaryl Phosphite–Oxazoline Ligands from the Chiral Pool: Highly Efficient Modular Ligands for the Asymmetric Pd‐Catalyzed Heck Reaction

A highly modular library of readily available phosphite–oxazoline ligands L1 – L21 a – g was successfully applied in the asymmetric Pd‐catalyzed Heck reactions of several substrates and triflates under thermal and microwave conditions. This ligand library contains three main ligand structures that have been designed by systematic modification of one of the most successful ligand families developed for this process. As well as studying the effect of these three ligand structures on the catalytic performance, we also evaluated the effect of modifying several ligand parameters in these ligand structures. The effectiveness of these ligands at transferring the chiral information into the product can be tuned by correctly choosing the ligand components. Both enantiomers of the Heck coupling products were obtained in excellent activities (conversion: >100 % in 10 min), regioselectivities (>99 %) and enantioselectivities (>99 % ee). Under microwave‐irradiation conditions, the reaction times were considerably shorter (full conversion was achieved in a few minutes) and the regio‐ and enantioselectivities were still excellent.     

Efficient Homodifunctional Bimolecular Ring‐Closure Method for Cyclic Polymers by Combining RAFT and Self‐Accelerating Click Reaction

An efficient metal‐free homodifunctional bimolecular ring‐closure method is developed for the formation of cyclic polymers by combining reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and self‐accelerating click reaction. In this approach, α,ω‐homodifunctional linear polymers with azide terminals are prepared by RAFT polymerization and postmodification of polymer chain end groups. By virtue of sym‐dibenzo‐1,5‐cyclooctadiene‐3,7‐diyne (DBA) as small linkers, well‐defined cyclic polymers are then prepared using the self‐accelerating double strain‐promoted azide–alkyne click (DSPAAC) reaction to ring‐close the azide end‐functionalized homodifunctional linear polymer precursors. Due to the self‐accelerating property of DSPAAC ring‐closing reaction, this novel method eliminates the requirement of equimolar amounts of telechelic polymers and small linkers in traditional bimolecular ring‐closure methods. It facilitates this method to efficiently and conveniently produce varied pure cyclic polymers by employing an excess molar amount of DBA small linkers.

     

Finely dispersed palladium on silk‐fibroin as an efficient and ligand‐free catalyst for Heck cross‐coupling reaction

A palladium–fibroin complex (Pd/Fib.) was prepared by the addition of sonicated fibroin fiber in water to palladium acetate solution. Pd (OAc)₂ was absorbed by fibroin and reduced with NaBH₄ at room temperature to the Pd(0) nanoparticles. Powder‐X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy–energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform‐infrared, CHN elemental analysis and inductively coupled plasma‐atomic emission spectroscopy were carried out to characterize the Pd/Fib. catalyst. Catalytic activity of this finely dispersed palladium was examined in the Heck coupling reaction. The catalytic coupling of aryl halides (‐Cl, ‐Br, ‐I) and olefins led to the formation of the corresponding coupled products in moderate to high yields under air atmosphere. A variety of substrates, including electron‐rich and electron‐poor aryl halides, were converted smoothly to the targeted products in simple procedure. Heterogeneous supported Pd catalyst can be recycled and reused several times.     

Cobalt supported on dendronized magnetic nanoparticles: A new highly efficient and recyclable catalyst for the Mizoroki–Heck cross‐coupling reaction

Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) is one of the most interesting types of hyperbranched polymers that carry a large number of amino groups on its surface. PAMAM has gained significant attention from synthetic organic chemists due to its structural characteristics, controllable structure, inner porosity, and ability to trap a wide range of ions and molecules. So, in this work, the PAMAM dendrimer was synthesized, grafted onto the surface of magnetite nanoparticles, and the resulting hybrid nanoparticles were then employed as suitable host for immobilizing cobalt nanoparticles. The newly developed catalyst was well characterized by Fourier transform‐infrared, X‐ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, field emission‐scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic absorption spectroscopy, element mapping and energy‐dispersive X‐ray analysis. The efficiency of the as‐prepared nanocatalyst was evaluated for the Mizoroki–Heck cross‐coupling reactions. The MNP@PAMAM‐Co represented perfect catalytic efficiency and high selectivity for the Mizoroki–Heck cross‐coupling reaction compared with previously reported catalysts. The catalyst separation from the reaction mixture was easily achieved with the assistance of an external magnetic field, and its recycling was also investigated for five consecutive runs. Hot filtration confirmed no leaching of the active metal during the Heck coupling.     

Guanidine‐Functionalized Resin‐Supported Pd(0) Catalyst: Activity,Reusability, and Redeposition of Active Pd Species in Heck Vinylation

The guanidine‐functionalized resin‐supported Pd(0) catalyst [GDR·Pd(0)] is highly active in Heck reaction of aryl bromides with acrylic acid or styrene without the need to exclude air. The catalyst can be recycled at least 9 times without significant loss of activity in N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone at 140 °C. The Heck reaction proceeds homogeneously with dissolved palladium species and the dissolved active palladium species can redeposit onto the surface of catalyst in the reaction. The XRD peak shifting of Pd phases in the catalyst provides the evidence for the re‐deposition of the active palladium species.
