Boronic acids reactions

Carreno reported a similar strategy for the production of tram Diels-Alder products. Instead of nitro-substituted dienophiles, he employed quinones substituted with boronic acids. Reaction of boronic acid dienophile 82 with diene 83 yields the expected cycloadduct as an unstable intermediate that is selectively protonated and then loses boron to yield the ultimate trans fused product 84. ... 

Vinylation can also be done by Pd-catalysed cross-coupling in which one component is used as a halide or triflate and the other as a stannane (Stille reaction) or boronic acid (Suzuki reaction). Entry 9, Table 11.3, is an example of the use of a vinylstannane with a haloindole. lndole-3-boronic acids, which can be prepared by mcrcuration/boration, undergo coupling with vinyl triflates (Entry 10). 

A solution of 6-bromoindole (O.lOmol) in toluene (200 ml) was treated with Pd(PPh3)4 (5mol%) and stirred for 30 min. A solution of 4-fluorophenyl-boronic acid (0.25 M, 0.15 mol) in abs. EtOH was added, followed immediately by sal aq. NaHCOj (10 eq.). The biphasic mixture was refluxed for several hours and then cooled to room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured into sat. aq. NaCl (200 ml) and the layers separated. The aq. layer was extracted with additional EtOAc (200 ml) and the combined organic layers dried (Na2S04), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The solution was filtered through silica gel using hexane-CHjCl -hexanc for elution and evaporated. Final purification by recrystallization gave the product (19 g, 90%). 

The iodination reaction can also be conducted with iodine monochloride in the presence of sodium acetate (240) or iodine in the presence of water or methanolic sodium acetate (241). Under these mild conditions functionalized alkenes can be transformed into the corresponding iodides. AppHcation of B-alkyl-9-BBN derivatives in the chlorination and dark bromination reactions allows better utilization of alkyl groups (235,242). An indirect stereoselective procedure for the conversion of alkynes into (H)-1-ha1o-1-alkenes is based on the mercuration reaction of boronic acids followed by in situ bromination or iodination of the intermediate mercuric salts (243). 

Moderate yields of acids and ketones can be obtained by paHadium-cataly2ed carbonylation of boronic acids and by carbonylation cross-coupling reactions (272,320,321). In an alternative procedure for the carbonylation reaction, potassium trialkylborohydride ia the presence of a catalytic amount of the free borane is utilized (322). FiaaHy, various tertiary alcohols including hindered and polycycHc stmctures become readily available by oxidation of the organoborane iatermediate produced after migration of three alkyl groups (312,313,323). 

Alternatively, radiohalogen-labeled compounds may be prepared by way of isotopic labeling from the unlabeled bromo or iodo derivatives by various two-step reaction sequences. Examples include the use of trialkylsilyl synthons as described in References 10—13, and the use of boronic acid synthons as described in References 14 and 15. 

The reaction is proposed to proceed from the anion (9) of A/-aminocatbonylaspattic acid [923-37-5] to dehydrooranate (11) via the tetrahedral activated complex (10), which is a highly charged, unstable sp carbon species. In order to design a stable transition-state analogue, the carboxylic acid in dihydrooronate (hexahydro-2,6-dioxo-4-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid) [6202-10-4] was substituted with boronic acid the result is a competitive inhibitor of dibydroorotase witb a iC value of 5 ]lM. Its inhibitory function is supposedly due to tbe formation of tbe charged, but stable, tetrabedral transition-state intermediate (8) at tbe active site of tbe enzyme. 

Selectivity in formation of protective groups may also be achieved by a proper choice of reaction conditions and catalyst. Thus formation of the 3-monothioketal from 3,6-diketones is achieved by dilution of the ethane-dithiol-boron trifluoride reaction mixture with acetic acid. 3-Monocyanohydrins are obtained in good yield from 3,20-diketo-(5a)-pregnanes by diluting the exchange reaction with ethanol. Similarly, dilution of the... 

Bromoquinolines behave in the Suzuki reaction similarly to simple carbocyclic aryl bromides and the reaction is straightforward. Examples include 3-(3-pyridyl)quinoline (72) from 3-bromoquinoline (70) and 3-pyridylboronic acid (71) (91JOC6787) and 3-phenyl-quinoline 75 from substituted 3,7-dibromoquinoline 73 and (2-pivaloylaminophenyl)boronic acid 74 (95SC4011). Notice that the combination of potassium carbonate and ethanol resulted in debromination at the C(7) position (but the... 

Palladium-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond forming reactions like the Suzuki reac-tion as well as the Heck reaction and the Stille reaction, have in recent years gained increased importance in synthetic organic chemistry. In case of the Suzuki reaction, an organoboron compound—usually a boronic acid—is reacted with an aryl (or alkenyl, or alkynyl) halide in the presence of a palladium catalyst. 

The boronic acid 2 is first converted to an activated species 8 containing a tetravalent boron center by reaction with a base. Halides or triflates (OTf = trilluoromethanesulfonate) are used as coupling partners R-X for the boronic acids. In many cases the rate-limiting step is the oxidative addition. With respect to the leaving group X, the rate decreases in the order ...

Palladium-mediated catalysis has only been exploited relatively recently in the synthesis of substituted PPV derivatives. The use of aryl dibromides as monomers is particularly useful as it allows the synthesis of PPVs substituted with alkyl rather than alkoxy sidechains. The Suzuki [53, 54], Heck [55], and Stille [56] reactions have been used in the synthesis of new PPV derivatives, but attaining high molecular weight PPV derivatives by these methodologies has proved problematic. A phenyl-subslilutcd PPV material PPPV 31 was synthesized by a Suzuki coupling (Scheme 1-10) of dibromoethene and fo/.v-boronic acid 30. Its absorption (2ni ix=385 nm) and emission (2max=475 nm) maxima were strongly... 

Rate coefficients for protodeboronation of a number of substituted benzene-boronic acids were measured by Kuivila et al.621 at pH 6.70 and 6.42 at 90 °C, p = 0.14. The relative rates at the two pH values were reasonably constant, indicating that the same reaction was being studied for each compound (Table 200). The results indicate that all substituents increase the rate of reaction but... 

Rate coefficients and kinetic parameters for iododeboronation were determined for the benzene- and thiophene-boronic acids, and the results are given in Table 256. The relative reactivities derived from this work correlated well with those obtained in a number of other electrophilic substitutions572, which is perhaps surprising in view of the large variation in the entropies of activation. These differences were explained by Brown et al.132 in terms of the transition state for the phenyl compound occurring earlier along the reaction coordinate than for the... 

The transition metal catalyzed cross coupling of an organohalide with a boronic acid derivative, the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, has become one of the most popular ways of preparing biaryls.3 The reaction is very robust and can easily be scaled to provide multigrams of material.4... 

Although there are several reports in the literature on boron-mediated amide formations, the boron reagents had to be used in stoichiometric amounts.1-4-5-6-7-8-9 Recently, Yamamoto et al. presented the first truly catalytic method allowing for a direct amide formation from free carboxylic acids and amines as the reaction partners.10-1112 Best results were obtained by using phenylboronic acids bearing electron withdrawing substituents in the meta- and/or para-positions such as 3,4,5-trifluorophenylboronic acid or 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)boronic acid as the catalysts. 

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. 

ArSnRs, and with arylmercury compounds. Aryl triflates react with arylbo-ronic acids ArB(OH)2, or with organoboranes, in the presence of a palladium catalyst, to give the arene in what is called Suzuki couplingCyclopropyl groups can be attached to aromatic rings by this reaction. Even hindered boronic acids give good yields of the coupled product.
