Novel synthesis of phenol derivatives by palladium-catalyzed cyclocarbonylation of 2,4-pentadienyl acetates
摘要:
Phenyl acetates were selectively obtained in good yields by cyclocarbonylation of 2,4-pentadienyl acetates in the presence of NEt3, Ac2O, and a catalytic amount of palladium complexes such as PdCl2(PPh3)2 at 120-140-degrees-C under 50 atm of CO. No five-membered ring products were observed. A platinum complex PtCl2(PPh3)2 was also effective as a catalyst. The reaction of 5-phenyl-2,4-pentadienyl bromide with M(CO)(PPh3)3 (M = Pd or Pt) under CO gave the corresponding 6-phenyl-3, 5-hexadienoyl complexes in a high yield, which in turn afforded 2-acetoxybiphenyl in 41-51% yield on heating to 160-degrees-C under 50 atm of CO in the presence of NEt3 and Ac2O. Similar 3,5-hexadienoyl complexes are proposed to be intermediates in the catalytic cyclocarbonylation of 2,4-pentadienyl acetates. On the other hand, PdCl2(PPh3)2-catalyzed carbonylation of o-(bromomethyl)(1-alkenyl)-benzenes in the presence of NEt3 and Ac2O gave 2-naphthyl acetates in moderate yields, while the reaction in the absence of Ac2O gave five-membered ring products such as 2-indanones or a tricyclic lactone by incorporation of one or two CO molecules, respectively.

reactions have been well-known, Pd(II) insertion into C-H bonds promoted by coordination of an oxygen-only group to the palladium remains rather rare. In the present study, the first cyclopalladation complex formed from a simple phenol ester was characterized by X-ray crystallography. A promising protocol for the ortho C-H activation/aryl-aryl coupling of phenol esters that was not sensitive to moisture
尽管含氮基团导向的环钯化反应已广为人知,但通过仅含氧的基团与钯的配位促进 Pd(II) 插入 CH 键的情况仍然相当罕见。在本研究中,第一个由简单苯酚酯形成的环钯化配合物通过 X 射线晶体学表征。然后建立了对水分或空气不敏感的苯酚酯邻位 CH 活化/芳基-芳基偶联的有前途的方案。该反应的效用已被证明可用于合成有用的苯酚衍生物。
