Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of in situ generated allylindium reagents with aryl halides

[reaction: see text] In situ generated allylindium reagents from the reaction of 1 equiv of indium with 1.5 equiv of allyl halides could be effective cross-coupling partners in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to aryl halides. The best results were obtained with 2% Pd(2)dba(3)CHCl(3) and 16% Ph(3)P in the presence of 3 equiv of LiCl in DMF at 100 degrees C.     

Nickel-catalyzed decarbonylative addition of phthalimides to alkynes

An intermolecular nickel-catalyzed addition reaction has been developed where N-arylphthalimides react with alkynes to afford substituted isoquinolones. A mechanistic rationale is proposed, implying nucleophilic attack of Ni(0) to an amide as the primary step of the catalytic cycle.     

One-pot Negishi cross-coupling reactions of in situ generated zinc reagents with aryl chlorides, bromides, and triflates

In situ generated aryl, heteroaryl, alkyl, or benzylic polyfunctional zinc reagents obtained by the addition of zinc and LiCl to the corresponding organic iodides undergo smooth Pd(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with aryl bromides, chlorides, and triflates in the presence of PEPPSI as a catalyst. This procedure avoids the manipulation of water and air-sensitive organozinc reagents and produces cross-coupling products in high yields.     

Copper-catalyzed electrophilic amination of diorganozinc reagents

The copper-catalyzed electrophilic amination of diorganozinc reagents employing O-acyl N,N-dialkyl hydroxylamine derivatives as aminating agents is described. This reaction offers a general method for the preparation of tertiary amines in high yields and is noteworthy for its convenience both in terms of reaction conditions employed (room temperature, 相似文献   

Electrophilic amination of diorganozinc reagents by oxaziridines

Electrophilic amination of organozinc reagents by oxaziridines has been studied. Diorganozinc reagents R₂Zn (R = alkyl or aryl) react with N-Boc oxaziridine to afford N-Boc protected primary amines BocNHR in moderate to good yields. No additives are needed in this reaction, which proceeds at 0 °C. We suggest that the presence of two heteroatoms in oxaziridine allows Lewis base activation of the diorganozinc reagent.     

Catalytic enantioselective addition of diorganozinc reagents to vinyl sulfones

An efficient method for the catalytic asymmetric conjugate addition of diorganozinc reagents to vinyl sulfones is reported. Using a Binap*Cu complex, enantioselectivities up to 98% ee and high yields can be attained for a variety of substrates. Several dialkylzinc reagents are also compatible with this procedure.     

Palladium-catalysed cross-coupling of organosilicon reagents

The palladium catalysed cross-coupling of organosilicon reagents with organo halides and pseudo-halides has developed over the past 30 years into an efficient and attractive carbon-carbon bond forming strategy. Extensive research within this field to expand and diversify on the scope of the organosilicon coupling reaction will continue to promote its use in the synthesis of biologically and pharmaceutically important organic molecules. The recent advances made within this area are explored in this critical review (199 references).     

Iron-catalyzed cross-coupling of imidoyl chlorides with Grignard reagents

[reaction: see text] A general, high yielding rapid iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between Grignard reagents and imidoyl chlorides is described. These reactions are typically completed within 5 min, resulting in high yields of 71-96% using 5% iron catalyst in a THF-NMP solvent mixture. Functionalized imidoyl chlorides (e.g., R = CO(2)Me) gave excellent yields (89%).     

Iron-catalyzed cross-coupling of alkenyl sulfides with Grignard reagents

[reaction: see text] The iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of alkenyl sulfides with Grignard reagents is described. While the cross-coupling proceeds efficiently at alkenyl-S bonds, almost no cross-coupling takes place at aryl-S bonds, attesting to a unique selectivity of iron catalysis. The beneficial effect of potentially coordinating 2-pyrimidyl group on sulfur is also described.     

Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl electrophiles with dimethylalkynylaluminum reagents

[reaction: see text] Alkynyldimethylaluminum reagents are easily available from terminal alkynes and trimethylaluminum via a triethylamine-catalyzed metalation. These compounds can react with various aromatic and heterocyclic halides in the presence of palladium in a fast and efficient way. This catalyzed cross-coupling reaction provides a simple entry to numerous internal alkynes, using a readily available, inexpensive, and nontoxic metalating agent.     

Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of carboxylic anhydrides with organozinc reagents

[reaction: see text] Negishi-type cross-coupling reaction was effected by employing organozincs and anhydrides or mixed anhydrides that formed in situ from sodium salts of the corresponding acids and ethyl chloroformate under the catalysis of palladium(0). A general method for preparing symmetrical/unsymmetrical ketones was developed.     

Highly ortho-selective cross-coupling of dichlorobenzene derivatives with Grignard reagents

Highly ortho-selective cross-coupling of dichlorobenzene derivatives with Grignard reagents was realized using a combination of Pd2(dba)3 and PCy3. Use of hydroxylated terphenylphosphines further improved the reactions of dichlorophenol and dichloroaniline.     

Cobalt-catalyzed cross-coupling of alkynyl Grignard reagents with alkenyl triflates

Alkenyl triflates in combination with Co(acac)(3) as a catalyst were found to be excellent coupling partners of alkynyl Grignard reagents, where no special additives (even a phosphine ligand) but a common solvent, THF, are required to obtain variously substituted enynes.     

Catalyzed cross-coupling of allyl bromides with allyl tin reagents

The reaction of allyl bromides with allyl tin reagents, catalyzed by palladium or zinc chloride gives cross-coupled products without allylic transpostion in the allyl halide partner but with predominate allylic rearrangement from the tin partner.     

Nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of alkynyl bromides with Grignard reagents

We describe a convenient method for the synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted acetylenes via a cross-coupling reaction of （bromoethynyl）benzene with Grignard reagents. The reaction of （bromoethynyl）benzene （1 mmol） with Grignard reagent （1.3 mmol） mediated by NiCl2 （4 mol%） and （p-CH3Ph）3P （8 mol%） in THF could produce 1,2-disubstituted acetylenes in good yields at room temperature.     

Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of triorganoindium reagents with propargylic esters

[reaction: see text] Triorganoindium reagents (R(3)In) react with propargylic esters under palladium catalysis via an S(N)2' rearrangement to afford allenes in good yields and with high regioselectivity. The reaction proceeds smoothly at room temperature with a variety of R(3)In (aryl, alkenyl, alkynyl, and methyl). When chiral, nonracemic propargylic esters are employed, the reaction takes place with high anti-stereoselectivity providing allenes with high enantiomeric excess.
