Synthesis of N-Aryl Hydrazides by Copper-Catalyzed Coupling of Hydrazides with Aryl Iodides
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]A convenient method for intermolecular N-arylation of hydrazides with substituted aryl iodides in the presence of a copper catalyst and Cs(2)CO(3) is reported. The C-N coupling of N-Boc hydrazine with para- and meta-substituted aryl iodides afforded the N-arylated products A, regioselectively. A reversal in regioselectivity is observed for the arylation of benzoic hydrazide with ortho-substituted aryl iodides, providing the N'-arylated products B.
An efficient copper-catalyzed carbon-nitrogen bond formation is described. The copper(I) complex with commercially available 2-picolinic acid ligand was found to be effective in N-arylation of N-Boc-hydrazine. This methodology offers a regioselective N-arylation of hydrazides using a variety of substituted aryl iodides. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
