A mild procedure of palladium and copper catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides and alkynyl carboxylic acids has been developed. Low molecular weight acids, to introduce small building blocks, were specifically used. This methodology is easy to implement and uses common reactants and catalysts.

[reaction: see text] Iridium(III) hydrides prove to be air-stable active catalysts for intramolecular hydroalkoxylation and hydroamination of internal alkynes with proximate nucleophiles. The cyclization follows highly selective 6-endo-dig regiochemistry when regioselectivity is an issue.

A homologous series of triaryl-like KITPHOS-type monophosphines containing one, two, or three bulky 12-phenyl-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethenoanthracene (KITPHOS) units have been developed, and the influence of increasing steric bulk on their efficacy as ligands in gold(I)-catalyzed carbon-heteroatom bond-forming cyclizations has been investigated. Detailed solution NMR studies on Ph-TRISKITPHOS, its oxide, and the corresponding gold(I) chloride adduct identified a conformational exchange process involving a concerted librational motion of the individual anthracene-derived organic substituents about their P-C bonds. The cessation of this motion at reduced temperatures lowers the molecular symmetry such that the two C6H4 rings in each of the KITPHOS units become inequivalent; a lower energy process involving restricted rotation of the biaryl-like phenyl ring has also been identified. Electrophilic gold(I) complexes of these triaryl-like KITPHOS monophosphines catalyze the 5-exo-dig cycloisomerization of propargyl amides to afford the corresponding methylene oxazolines, which were used in a subsequent tandem carbonyl-ene reaction to afford functionalized 2 -substituted oxazolines. A comparative survey revealed that catalyst efficiency for cycloisomerization decreases in the order MONOKITPHOS = BISKITPHOS > PPh3 > TRISKITPHOS. The optimum system also catalyzes the selective 6-endo-dig cyclization of 2-alkynylbenzyl alcohols, 2-alkynylbenzoic acid, and 2-phenylethynyl benzamides; gratifyingly, in several cases the yields obtained are markedly higher and/or reaction times significantly shorter than those previously reported for related gold catalysts. Moreover, these are the first examples of gold(I)-catalyzed 6-endo-dig cycloisomerizations involving 2-phenylethynyl benzamides and, reassuringly, the optimum gold(I)/MONOKITPHOS systems either rivaled or outperformed existing silver or palladium based catalysts. The steric parameters of this homologous series of phosphines have been quantified and compared with selected triarylphosphines using a combination of Solid -G calculations, to determine the percentage of the metal coordination sphere shielded by the phosphine (the G parameter), and Salerno molecular buried volume calculations (SambVca) to determine the percent buried volume (%V-bur); the corresponding Tolman cone angles have also been determined from correlations.
