Triflates palladium/copper-catalyzed cross-coupling

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],... 

In addition to the examples described previously, a tremendous variety of compounds have been prepared using palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions due to the broad functional group tolerance. The combination of copper and palladium complexes have been used to promote the formation of borane-protected arylphosphines [298]. Palladium acetate catalyzed the coupling of halogenated benzoic acid derivatives leading to the formation of water-soluble phosphine ligands [299]. Aryl triflates have also been used in the phosphination reaction [300]. Functionalized tyrosine derivatives were converted... 

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 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). 

Palladium-catalyzed annulations of terminal alkynes by functionally substituted aromatic or vinylic halides or triflates often employ copper salts and most likely proceed by initial cross-coupling to produce the corresponding aryl alkyne or enyne (Eq. 1).
