Decarboxylative Benzylations of Alkynes and Ketones
摘要:
Benzyl esters of propiolic and beta-keto acids undergo catalytic decarboxylative coupling when treated with appropriate palladium catalysts. Such decarboxylative couplings allow the benzylation of alkynes without the use of strong bases and/or organometallics. This allows the synthesis of sensitive benzylic alkynes that are prone to undergo isomerizations under basic conditions. Additionally, decarboxylation facilitates the site-specific benzylation of diketones and ketoesters under mild, base-free conditions. Ultimately, the methodology described expands our ability to cross-couple medicinally relevant heterocycles.

A regioselective Pd-catalyzed domino carbopalladation/decarboxylative allylicalkynylation of ortho-iodoallenamides with alkynyl carboxylic acids was studied. This domino process, based on the consecutive formation of C(sp2)–C(sp2) and C(sp3)–C(sp) bonds, was originally achieved for the design of a novel library of prop-2-ynyl isoquinolinones and then extended to indoles. Finally, a general three-step
