Aerobic, Metal-Free, and Catalytic Dehydrogenative Coupling of Heterocycles: En Route to Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Inhibitors
摘要:
The nitrosonium ion-catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of heteroarenes under mild reaction conditions is reported. The developed method utilizes ambient molecular oxygen as a terminal oxidant, and only water is produced as byproduct. Dehydrogenative coupling of heteroarenes translated into the rapid discovery of novel hedgehog signaling pathway inhibitors, emphasizing the importance of the developed methodology.
Palladium-Catalyzed Reaction of o-Ethynylphenols, o-((Trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)phenyl Acetates, and o-Alkynylphenols with Unsaturated Triflates or Halides: A Route to 2-Substituted-, 2,3-Disubstituted-, and 2-Substituted-3-acylbenzo[b]furans
摘要:
The reaction of o-ethynylphenols 3 with a wide variety of unsaturated halides or triflates 6 in the presence of Pd(OAc)(2)(PPh(3))(2), CuI, and Et(3)N (procedure A) gives 2-vinyl- and 2-arylbenzo[b]furans 7, in good to high yield, through a palladium-catalyzed coupling followed by an in situ cyclization step. Small amounts of 2,3-disubstituted-benzo[b]furans 8 are usually isolated as side products. In some cases, however, compounds 8 are generated in significant yield or even as the main products. The formation of 8 can be prevented by employing alternative procedures (B and C) that use o-((trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)phenyl acetates 5 as starting building blocks. Procedure B is based on the palladium-catalyzed reaction of 5 with 6 in the presence of Pd(PPh(3))(4), Et(3)N, and n-Bu(4)NF, followed by the hydrolysis of the resultant coupling derivative 12 under basic conditions. Procedure C affords 7 through an in situ coupling/cyclization of 5 with 6 in the presence of Pd(PPh(3))(4) and KOBu(t). The utilization of o-alkynylphenols 9 as the starting alkynes in the palladium-catalyzed reaction with 6 leads to the formation of 2,3-disubstituted-benzo[b]furans 13 through an annulation process promoted by sigma-vinyl- and sigma-arylpalladium complexes generated in situ. The best results in this case are obtained by using KOAc and Pd(PPh(3))(4). In the presence of KOAc and Pd(PPh(3))(4), and under an atmosphere of carbon monoxide, the reaction of o-alkynylphenols with 6 provides 2-vinyl- and 2-aryl-3-acylbenzo[b]furans 14.
The Suzuki−Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl phosphates using Ni(PCy3)2Cl2 as an inexpensive, bench-stable catalyst is described. Broad substrate scope and high efficiency are demonstrated by the syntheses of more than 40 biaryls and by constructing complex organic molecules. The poor reactivity of aryl phosphates relative to aryl halides is successfully employed to construct polyarenes by selective cross-coupling

products. Here, we show that solid-state high-temperature ball-milling conditions facilitate a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling with polyfluorinated arylboronic acids and pinacol esters employing a simple catalytic system in the absence of any stoichiometric additives. This reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope and can be carried out in air, and the use of large amounts of dry and degassed organic solvents

This article describes the design, optimisation and development of a Suzuki cross-coupling protocol mediated by an efficient palladium-encapsulated catalyst (Pd EnCat) under microwave irradiation. The methodology has been used in both batch mode for classical library preparation and in continuous-flow applications furnishing multigram quantities of material. Described is a method that uses direct focused

An intermolecular addition of carbon radicals enabled by a cascade radical coupling strategy is developed. It includes an intermolecular alkyl radical addition to a carbonyl group followed by an intramolecular alkoxy radical addition to haloarenes and produces substituted benzofurans in high yields. The radical nature of this reaction is explored by radical trapping experiments and EPR analysis. The

A palladium‐catalysed cross‐coupling of organolithiumreagents with aryl and vinyl triflates is presented. The reaction proceeds at 50 or 70 °C with short reaction times, and the corresponding products are obtained with moderate to high yields, with a variety of alkyl and (hetero)aryl lithium reagents.
