A new method has been developed for the cross-coupling of aryl halides with beta-chloroalkyl aryl ketones and their ester and amide analogs through a domino dehydrochlorination/Pd(OAc)(2)-catalyzed Heck reaction sequence. The enone intermediates generated in situ reduced the occurrence of side reactions and therefore enhanced the efficiency of the reaction. This reaction exhibited good tolerance to various functional groups on both substrates and provides rapid access to a wide range of chalcone derivatives.

A new Heck-type reaction for the synthesis of chalcones has been established using Mannich bases as enone precursors. The novel reaction proceeds rapidly in air atmosphere under ligandless conditions and can be adapted for library synthesis in a parallel reactor station. Screening of the synthesized chalcones revealed N-4-[(1E)-3-oxo-3-(3-pyridinyl)-1-propenyl]phenyl} benzamide (3f) to be a potent anti-leishmanial agent. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Palladium-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Arylation of Benzoylacrylic Acids toward the Synthesis of Chalcones
It has been found that readily available 3-benzoylacrylic acids undergo palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative arylation with arylboronic acids in the presence of a copper salt oxidant to produce chalcone derivatives. The decarboxylative arylation could also be achieved using aryl halides as the alternative aryl source to expand the applicable scope.
