One-pot preparation of hydroxylated potassium organotrifluoroborates and subsequent Jones oxidation to potassium organocarbonyltrifluoroborates
摘要:
Alcohol-containing potassium organotrifluoroborates as starting reagents were prepared from their corresponding dibromobenzenes through a sequential one-pot reaction. The oxidation reactions of these substrates, which were carried out using 3.0 equiv of 8 N Jones reagent in acetone at 0 degrees C, provided a high yield of the desired carbonyl-functionalized compounds. In addition, the cross-coupling reactions of these organocarbonyltrifluoroborates were successfully performed in the presence of 3 mol % of Pd (PPh3)(4) catalyst at 100 degrees C.

presence of catalytic amount of KOH and [Cp∗︁IrCl2]2 (Cp∗︁=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) catalyst. The reaction is carried out in the absence of any solvent or additive, which generates only water as the byproduct in theory. It is very efficient and generally completed in 10 min in good isolated yields. The reaction is believed to undergo successive hydrogentransfer and cross aldol condensation processes
