Terminal Aryl Alkenes and Alkynes as Arylcarboxy Surrogates toward o-Benzoxylation of 2-Phenylpyridine Catalyzed by Copper
摘要:
A variety of styrenes and phenylacetylenes serve as excellent arylcarboxy sources in bringing about substrate directed o-benzoxylation of 2-phenylpyridine derivatives catalyzed by Cu(II) in the presence of TBHP. This reaction proceeds via formation of phenylglyoxal followed by decarbonylation to benzoyl radical/benzaldehyde which acts as the arylcarboxy source.
A palladium-catalyzed direct C–H bond oxidativeacyloxylation of 2-arylpyridines with aromatic carboxylic acids is described. Several 2-arylpyridines derivatives and aromatic carboxylic acids participate in the reaction, providing a series of mono-acyloxylated products in moderate to good yields. Importantly, the reaction can be conducted without using any ligands in a lower temperature.
