Chromans have been obtained by the Pd-catalysed intramolecular cross coupling reaction involving aryl halides containing an ortto-hydroxyalkyl substituent <96JA10333>. 

For the domino transition metal-catalyzed synthesis of macrocycles, conditions must be found for two distinct cross-coupling reactions, of which one is inter- and the other intramolecular. For this purpose, Zhu s group [115] has developed a process of a Miyura arylboronic ester formation followed by an intramolecular Suzuki reaction to give model compounds of the biphenomycin structure 6/1-232 containing an endo-aryl-aryl bond. 

Intramolecularly coordinated A1 and In compounds (e.g., (75), (76)) transfer the Me group in cross-coupling reactions with various aryl halides, including chlorides, catalyzed by Pd and Ni complexes.16 262 265 Monoorganobismuth compounds are reactive in cross-coupling reactions only if they contain an intramolecularly coordinating residue (77),266 267... 

The formation of a cyclic siloxane obtained by intramolecular hydrosilylation has been used to control the stereochemistry of a cross-coupling reaction (Equation (18)) 79... 

As described above, our synthetic strategy involves the convergent construction of the central cyclopentanone ring with a carbonylative cross-coupling reaction and a photo-Nazarov cyclization reaction (Chart 2.2). The electrophilic coupling component 51 was synthesized by an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction [34] and the nucleophilic coupling component 52 by a vinyiogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction [35]. 

Most of the work on the C-N bond-forming crosscoupling reactions has concentrated on the formation of aromatic C-N bonds. Recent studies show that the application of cross-coupling reactions to alkenyl halides or triflates furnished enamines (Scheme 19) (for palladium-catalyzed reaction, see 28,28a-28d, and for copper-catalyzed reaction, see 28e-28g). Brookhart et al. studied the palladium-catalyzed amination of 2-triflatotropone 109 for the synthesis of 2-anilinotropone 110.28 It was found that the reaction of 109 proceeded effectively in the presence of racemic BINAP and a base. As a simple method for the synthesis of enamines, the palladium-catalyzed reactions of alkenyl bromide 111 with secondary amine were achieved under similar conditions.2841 The water-sensitive enamine 112 was isolated as pure compound after dilution with hexane and filtration through Celite. The intramolecular cyclization of /3-lactam 113, having a vinyl bromide moiety, was investigated by Mori s...

The selectivity, functional group tolerance, and mild reaction conditions of the various Pd° cross-coupling reactions have made them invaluable tools for carbon-carbon bond formation. Intramolecular variations to construct macrocycles have also been described. 

Intramolecular nucleophilic reaction of sp2-geminated organodimetal species gives cycloalkyl metal derivative, which can be converted into the corresponding alkenyl iodide. The iodide can be used for further transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction (equations 61 and 62)86. 

The formation of seven membered heterocycles and larger rings through cross-coupling reactions is quite rare (except for some macrocyclic natural products). An example of such a process is presented in 5.1. The intramolecular Stille-coupling of the tributylstannyl-indole and vinyl bromide moieties led to the formation of a seven membered ring in good yield.1... 

Three types of reaction systems have been designed and applied for the enantioposition-selective asymmetric cross-coupling reactions so far. First example is asymmetric induction of planar chirality on chromium-arene complexes [7,8]. T vo chloro-suhstituents in a tricarhonyl("n6-o-dichlorobenzene)chromium are prochiral with respect to the planar chirality of the 7t-arene-metal moiety, thus an enantioposition-selective substitution at one of the two chloro substituents takes place to give a planar chiral monosubstitution product with a minor amount of the disubstitution product. A similar methodology of monosuhstitution can be applicable to the synthesis of axially chiral biaryl molecules from an achiral ditriflate in which the two tri-fluoromethanesulfonyloxy groups are enantiotopic [9-11]. The last example is intramolecular alkylation of alkenyl triflate with one of the enantiotopic alkylboranes, which leads to a chiral cyclic system [12], The structures of the three representative substrates are illustrated in Figure 8F.1. 

The formation of spirolactams 47-49 could be rationalized in terms of a sequence domino cyclization of a-allenols-cross coupling reactions. A palladium (Il)-catalyzed mechanism for the domino sequence leading to spiranic adducts 47-49 is proposed in Scheme 17. It could be presumed that the initially formed allenepalladium complex 50 undergoes an intramolecular attack by the hydroxyl group (oxypalladation), giving rise to the spirocyclic vinylic palladium species 51. 

The same group developed an interesting intermolecular palladium-catalyzed alienation of aryliodide with N-tosyl o-iodoanilines with nucleophiles in combination with two palladium-coupling reactions [69]. In this reaction, the N-allyl(2-iodopalladium)aniline intermediate 52 underwent an intramolecular Heck reaction followed by a cross-coupling reaction with phenyl boronic acid to give the 3,3-disubstituted indoline 53 in 78% yield (Scheme 8.27). 

Reactions of alkynyliodonium salts 119 with nucleophiles proceed via an addition-elimination mechanism involving alkylidenecarbenes 120 as key intermediates. Depending on the structure of the alkynyliodonium salt, specific reaction conditions, and the nucleophile employed, this process can lead to a substituted alkyne 121 due to the carbene rearrangement, or to a cyclic product 122 via intramolecular 1,5-carbene insertion (Scheme 50). Both of these reaction pathways have been widely utilized as a synthetic tool for the formation of new C-C bonds. In addition, the transition metal mediated cross-coupling reactions of alkynyliodonium salts are increasingly used in organic synthesis.

Reaction of aryl Grignard compounds, obtained in situ by iodine-magnesium exchange, with C0CI2, presumably generates aryl radicals. In the presence of a double bond or aromatic ring an intramolecular radical cyclization may take place. This reaction was used for the synthesis of spiro-indolines.244 Oshima has applied cobalt-mediated tandem radical cyclization-cross-coupling reaction for the synthesis of benzyl-substituted heterocycles (Scheme 80).245...
