Nucleophilic reactions palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling

Palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of arylhalides or halide equivalents with various nucleophiles have been shown to be highly effective and practical... 

Pyrazines undergo nearly all of the same reactions as pyrimidines, from nucleophilic substitution (SnAt) to palladium-catalyzed cross coupling reactions. Displacement of the chlorides via SnAt reactions with nitrogen (157 158) and sulfur-based nucleophiles (158... 

The 4- and 6-positions of pyrrolo[2,3-3]pyridines can be substituted via palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with the 4- or 6-halo-substituted derivatives (Scheme 3) <2001SL609>. Nucleophilic displacement of the 4-substituent of 6-chloro-4-nitro- and 4,6-dichloro-pyrrolo[2,3-/ ]pyridines takes place with phenols. Protection of the pyrrole nitrogen with a /3-trimethylsilylethoxymethyl (SEM) group affords good yields of the aryl ethers (Equation 3) <2006TL2069>.

The scope and value of the benzannulation reaction is further increased by the substitution pattern of the arene ring, which can be modified by the incorporation of allcynes bearing additional functional groups such as silyl, stannyl, or boryl substituents. These functional groups have been used in various palladium-catalyzed (cross)-coupling reactions [63, 64]. Further structural elaboration may be based on benzannulation followed by nucleophilic aromatic addition [63b]. 

Diborons and HBpin have been found to act as the boron nucleophiles in the presence of a base for the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of organic electrophiles. Both reactions provide a simple and direct method for the borylation of organic halides and triflates.

The less stable trifluoromethyl zinc compounds [48] can be used as a source of nucleophilic trifluoromethyl fragments either in the isolated form or generated in situ by sonication of perfluoroalkyl iodides with zinc in DMF or THF. Zinc perfluoroorganyls find application in Barbier-type reactions [49], palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions [50], or hydroperfluoroalkylations of acetylenes or olefins [51] (Scheme 2.119). 

Nucleophilic displacement of chlorine, in a stepwise manner, from cyanuric chloride leads to triazines with heteroatom substituents (see Section 6.12.5.2.4) in symmetrical or unsymmetrical substitution patterns. New reactions for introduction of carbon nucleophiles are useful for the preparation of unsymmetrical 2,4,6-trisubstituted 1,3,5-triazines. The reaction of silyl enol ethers with cyanuric chloride replaces only one of the chlorine atoms and the remaining chlorines can be subjected to further nucleophilic substitution, but the ketone produced from the silyl enol ether reaction may need protection or transformation first. Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of 2-substituted 4,6-dichloro-l,3,5-triazine with phenylboronic acid gives 2,4-diaryl-6-substituted 1,3,5-triazines <93S33>. Cyanuric fluoride can be used in a similar manner to cyanuric chloride but has the added advantage of the reactions with aromatic amines, which react as carbon nucleophiles. New 2,4,6-trisubstituted 1,3,5-triazines are therefore available with aryl or heteroaryl and fluoro substituents (see Section 6.12.5.2.4). 

Suzuki-Miyaura reactions are perhaps the most widely employed palladium catalyzed cross-couplings in the realm of thiazole medicinal chemistry. They typically take place only when the thiazole is an electrophile in the transformation. The nucleophilic thiazole boronic acid or ester, especially at the 2-position, is relatively unstable and therefore difficult to prepare. The electrophiles namely the 2-, 4-, or 5-substituted halothiazoles are often readily accessible in terms of their synthetic ease or commercial availability. A remarkable application has been described by Jang et al. in the discovery...
