Aryl derivatives Suzuki-Miyaura reaction

The pincer-type palladacycle (120) (R = 1Pr), which is actually a derivative of a dialkylphos-phinous acid (themselves excellent ligands see Section 9.6.3.4.6) was shown to allow the crosscoupling of aryl chlorides with terminal acetylenes ((120), ZnCl2, Cs2C03, dioxane, 160 °C). However the high reaction temperature may be prohibitive for the actual application of this catalytic system, as acetylenes are known to be thermally sensitive.433 The same palladacycle (R = Ph) is effective in the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction with aryl bromides and activated aryl chlorides (K2C03, toluene, 130 °C). 

A similarly high performance has been reported for oxime-derived (125) and benzylsulfide-derived (126) palladacycles.438 These precatalysts are effective in the cross-coupling of arylboronic acids,438,439 organotin compounds,440 and terminal acetylenes441 with aryl iodides and bromides, and of activated aryl chlorides. SC-palladacycles can effect the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction even at room temperature. 

The same group reported on a library synthesis of 3-aminoimidazo[l,2-a]-pyridines/pyrazines by fluorous multicomponent reactions. Here the overall yields, as well as the yields for the separate Suzuki-Miyaura reactions that were a part of the synthesis, were relatively low due to competing reactions and the poor reactivities of the substrates, but the speed of the microwave-mediated syntheses and ease of separation underlined the usefulness of fluorous reagents [140]. A recent paper further illustrated the use of Suzuki-Miyaura couplings of aryl perfluorooctylsulfonates in the decoration of products derived from 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions [141]. 

The palladium-catalyzed coupling of boronic acids (as well as other boron derivatives) with aryl and vinyl halides and psendohalides is known as the Suzuki or Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. Because boron is nontoxic, this reaction has been used in pharmaceutical syntheses. In addition, hydroboration or borate substitution allows for the synthesis of virtually any desired coupling partner. For these reasons, as well as the high yields and functional group compatibility, the Suzuki reaction is the first reaction to consider for carrying out a cross coupling. Representative substrates and catalysts are shown in Scheme 17. The various bases are used to generate four-coordinate boron ate complexes that are more reactive in transmetalation. 

Romagnoli et al. have reported a convergent synthesis of a class of microtubule targeting agents where they aj lied the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction to highly substituted 5-bromothiazoles. With various aryl boronic acid, highly substituted thiazole derivatives were prepared and evaluated for their anti-proliferative activity against a panel of human tumor cell lines. 

The palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura reaction is a cross-coupling reaction between aryl halides and horon derivatives (Scheme 19.40) [54]. Snznki received the Nobel Prize in 2010 [54h]. Reactions are performed under mild conditions and many functional gronps are tolerated. Water is not a problem and may be even beneficial (vide infra). The first reported reactions hy Suzuki in 1979 insisted about the presence of a base, even if no proton is exchanged [54a, b]. Various bases have been used EtO, MeO", OH", CO ", and F" associated with countercations such as Na, K% Cs+, LP, nBu N+, Ag+, or TP [54, 55]. The role of the base has led to many mechanistic interpretations involving among them anionic arylborates as reagents [54g, 56]. 

P-Substituted vinylboronic esters were isolated in fair to high yields from the coupling under classical Heck conditions of vinylBhg with (hetero)aryl iodides and bromides (Table 3.1, entries 1-3). A dienyl boronic ester was obtained by coupling of vinylBhg with a vinyl iodide derived from phenylgly-cine (entry 4). The preparation of a styryl boronic ester with a sulfonamide moiety is described in a patent (entry 5) this product was later used in a Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. ... 

After a preliminary report [129], in 2006, Adjabeng etal. [130] reported the synthesis and application of novel phospa-adamantane ligands for the Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. These compounds were originally reported by Epstein and Buckler in 1961 [132]. In this procedure, the phenyl derivative - l,3,5,7-tetramethyl-2,4,8-trioxa-6-phenyl-6-phospha-adamantane (Figure 1.40b) - was used in the arylation of aryl iodides, bromides, and activated chlorides with a variety of boronic acids at room temperature in a few hours with high yields. The ligand is comparable to P(fBu)j [126] with... 

In a variation of the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction, trifluorostyrene derivatives, such as (69), have been prepared by palladium-catalysed reaction of aryl bromides with lithium trimethoxy(trifluorovinyl) borate. DFT calculations have been reported explaining... 

Firooznia has reported the synthesis of 4-substituted phenylalanine derivatives via cross-coupling of protected (4-pinacolylboron)phenylalanine derivatives such as 61 with aryl and alkenyl iodides, bromides and triflates [44]. They have further shown that BOC derivatives of (4-pinacolylboron)phenylalanine ethyl ester 61 or the corresponding boronic acids undergo Suzuki-Miyaura reactions with a number of aryl chlorides in the presence of PdCl2(PCy)3 or NiCl2(dppf), respectively providing diverse sets of 4-substituted phenylalanine derivatives of type 62 [45]. This strategy has also been used for the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched 4-substituted phenylalanine derivatives (Scheme 3.28) [46]. 

The Suzuki-Miyaura and Heck reactions were recently also reported under conventional heating conditions [39,40]. A variety of 3-chloro pyrazinones were reacted with commercially available (hetero)aryl boronic acids or the alkyl-9-BBN derivatives under either classical or slightly modified Suzuki conditions to generate the 3-substituted analogues, however having the drawback of longer reaction times of up to 12 h of reflux. 

The Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling Reactions of 2-, 6- or 8-Halopurines with Boronic Acids Leading to 2-, 6- or 8-Aryl- and -Alkenylpurine Derivatives... 

Additionally, Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reactions can be performed on similar supported iodides. Aryl bromides could be employed in this reaction as well. After optimization of conditions, it turned out that a hydroxyl-derived IL was the best solvent for this reaction. Namely, reaction completion was obtained after 12 h at room temperature in [N11130H][NTf2] in the presence of 1% Pd(OAc)2 and using potassium carbonate as abase. Under these conditions, less than 1% of homocoupling product is observed and easily eliminated by washing with diethyl ether prior to transesterification with methanol. Overall, biphenyls were isolated under analytically pure form in 90-95% yields [126],... 

Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of alkylboronic acid derivatives or alkyltrifluoroborates widi aryl, alkenyl or alkyl halides and triflates ,... 

Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, involving the reaction of aryl boronic derivatives with aryl halides in the presence of a palladium catalyst, is a very powerful method for the preparation of biaryls. Solutions of aryl bromides or iodides supported on onium salts via an ester link in an RTIL lead to BTSILs that can be engaged in the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction with aryl boronic derivatives. like the Heck reaction, this coupling is also sensitive to the variations in different parameters. The possibility to synthesize libraries of biarylic derivatives by parallel synthesis is illustrated by (Scheme 5.5-39) [51]. 

The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction is a standard method for carbon-carbon bond formation between an aryl halide or triflate and a boronic acid derivative, catalyzed by a palladium-metal complex. As with the Mizoroki-Heck reaction, this cross-coupling reaction has been developed in ionic liquids in order to recycle and reuse the catalyst. In 2000, the first cross-coupling of a halide derivative with phenylboronic acid in [bmim] [BF4] was described. As expected, the reaction proceeded much faster with bromobenzene and iodobenzene, whereas almost no biphenyl 91 was obtained using the chloride derivative (Scheme 36). The ionic liquid allowed the reactivity to be increased, with a turnover number between 72 and 78. Furthermore, the catalyst could be reused repeatedly without loss of activity, even when the reaction was performed under air. Cross-coupling with chlorobenzene was later achieved - although with only a moderate yield (42%) - using ultrasound activation.
