Palladium-catalyzed arylation cross-coupling with

When the metallic additive to the intermediate 374 was zinc dihalide (or another Lewis acid, such as aluminum trichloride, iron trichloride or boron trifluoride), a conjugate addition to electrophilic olefins affords 381 . In the case of the lithium-zinc transmetallation, a palladium-catalyzed Negishi cross-coupling reaction with aryl bromides or iodides allowed the preparation of arylated componnds 384 ° in 26-77% yield. In addition, a Sn2 allylation of the mentioned zinc intermediates with reagents of type R CH=CHCH(R )X (X = chlorine, bromine) gave the corresponding compounds 385 in 52-68% yield. ... 

Early findings by Suzuki and co-workers [109] showed that the palladium-catalyzed iminocarbonylative cross-coupling reaction between 9-alkyl-9-BBN derivatives, t-butylisocyanide, and arylhalides gives access to alkyl aryl ketones 132 after hydrolysis of the corresponding ketimine intermediates 131. Presumably, the concentration of free isocyanide is kept to a minimum by its coordination with the borane. Formation of an iminoacylpalladium(II) halide 130 by insertion of isocyanide to the newly formed arylpalladium complex followed by a transmetallation step afford the ketimine intermediates 131 (Scheme 8.52). 

The Suzuki-Miyaura reaction has proven useful for synthetic chemists in the formation of aryl-aiyl bonds. Benefits include generally mild reaction conditions, compatibility with most functional groups, and the use of readily available boronic acids known for their stability. In the reaction shown below, Meldal and co-workers reported a palladium-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of a bromothiophene using a solid-phase synthesis protocol. ... 

A few palladium-catalyzed Kumada cross-couplings of heteroaryl chlorides have been reported [101]. Knochel has recently determined that certain 2-chloropyridine derivatives react with functionalized aryl Grignard reagents under mild conditions (Equation 2.61) [102]. 

Cyclotrimerizations of phenylethynes using palladium-dppf complexes have been studied, and the coordination chemistry of l,T-bis(diphenylselenophosphoryl)ferrocene with gold and silver has been investigated. The novel l,l, 2,2 -tetrakis(diphenylphosphino)-4,4 -di-/ tt-butylferrocene-type phosphines may be used as ligands in palladium-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling and Heck alkylation of aryl halides. 

Simple amides and esters 116 were conveniently deprotonated by Zn(tmp)2 (tmp = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl anion) to generate zinc enolates 117. The zinc enolates 117 were readily coupled with aryl bromides using typical palladium-catalyzed Negishi cross-coupling reactions to give arylketones 118. Enolates formed by this method were suitable for use in aldol reactions that tolerate base-sensitive functional groups. 

They have also developed a route to 2-allenylindole derivatives (98T13929). When prop-2-ynyl carbonates (76) are reacted with 73 in the presence of palladium catalyst, a cross-coupling reaction occurs to give 77a (46%) and 77b (45%). Under a pressurized carbon monoxide atmosphere (10 atm), the palladium-catalyzed reaction of 73 with 78 provides 79a (60%) and 79b (60%) (2000H2201). In a similar reaction, when the substrate is changed to aryl halides (80), 2-aryl-1-methoxyindoles such as 81a (70%) and 81b (60%) are prepared (97H2309). 

Palladium-Catalyzed Arylation of Enolates. Very substantial progress has been made in the use of Pd-catalyzed cross coupling for arylation of enolates and enolate equivalents. This reaction provides an important method for arylation of enolates, which is normally a difficult transformation to accomplish.171 A number of phosphine ligands have been found to promote these reactions. Bulky trialkyl phosphines such as /n. v-(/-butyl)phosphinc with a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)2 results in phenylation of the enolates of aromatic ketones and diethyl malonate.172... 

So far, no systematic work has been done on the use of recyclable, solid-phase catalysts in cross-coupling reactions. Most of the examples have been obtained for cross-couplings with either arylboronic acids or terminal acetylenes. It should be noted, however, that due care should be exercised when interpreting results on the cross-coupling of arylboronic acids with aryl iodides, as this extremely facile reaction can be catalyzed by practically any palladium-containing material, including trivial Pd black,481 e.g., as a sediment on the reaction vessel. Therefore, this reaction cannot serve as a reliable test for comparison between different catalytic systems. 

Tributylstannyl)-3-cyclobutene-1,2-diones and 4-methyl-3-(tributylstan-nyl)-3-cyclobutene-l,2-dione 2-ethylene acetals undergo the palladium/copper-catalyzed cross coupling with acyl halides, and palladium-catalyzed carbon-ylative cross coupling with aryl/heteroaryl iodides [45]. The coupling reaction of alkenyl (phenyl )iodonium triflates is also performed by a palladium/copper catalyst [46],... 

A distannation product of 2-butyne-l,4-diol oxidatively cyclizes to provide 3,4-bis(stannyl)furan, which then undergoes palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling with an aryl iodide to give 3,4-diarylfuran (Scheme 31).152,153... 

The palladium-catalyzed arylation and alkenylation of terminal alkynes with aryl or alkenyl hahdes in presence of a copper(l) co-catalyst is called Sonogashira reaction. In the same way as in the other cross-coupling reactions described before, it is possible to immobihze the alkyne or the aromatic bromides, iodides or triflates on sohd supports (Scheme 3.15). 

Fluorosilylsubstituted aryl derivatives were found to be useful reagents for carbon-carbon bond formation via palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling with aryl halides in the presence of fluoride anions as Si—C bond activator in dimethylformamide (DMF), as well as rhodium-catalyzed 1,4-addition to a, 3-unsaturated ketones in the presence of a fluoride anion source (Equation 14.11) [66, 69, 70],...
