Reductive Cross-Coupling of 3-Bromo-2,1-borazaronaphthalenes with Alkyl Iodides
摘要:
Conditions have been developed for the reductive cross-coupling of 3-bromo-2,1-borazaronaphthalenes with primary and secondary alkyl iodides. This method allows direct alkylation of azaborine cores, providing efficient access to functionalized isosteres of naphthalene derivatives.
Accessing Molecularly Complex Azaborines: Palladium-Catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura Cross-Couplings of Brominated 2,1-Borazaronaphthalenes and Potassium Organotrifluoroborates
摘要:
Despite their potential applications in both medicinal chemistry and materials science, there have been limited reports on the functionalization of 2,1-borazaronaphthalenes since their discovery in 1959. To access new chemical space and build molecular complexity, the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of brominated 2,1-borazaronaphthalenes been investigated. The palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling proceeds with an array of potassium (hetero)aryltrifluoroborates in high yield with low catalyst loadings under mild reaction conditions. By the use of a high-yielding bromination of various 2,1-borazaronaphthalenes to generate electrophilic azaborine species, a library of 3-(hetero)aryl and 3,6-diaryl-2,1-borazaronaphthalenes has been synthesized.

A Pd-catalyzed Miyaura borylation of 3-bromo-2,1-borazaronaphthalenes is reported. This method allows the formation of umpolung reagents for subsequent Pd-mediated cross-coupling. Coupling of this nucleophilic partner with a variety of commercially available aryl- and heteroaryl halides allows facile and rapid diversification of these cores.
