Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Five-Membered Heterocyclic Silanolates
摘要:
The preparation of pi-rich 2-aryl heterocycles by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of sodium heteroarylsilanolates with aryl iodides, bromides, and chlorides is described. The cross-coupling process was developed through extensive optimization of the following key variables: (1) identification of stable, isolable alkali metal silanolates, (2) identification of conditions for preformation and isolation of silanolate salts, (3) judicious choice in the palladium catalyst/ligand combination, and (4) selection of the protecting group on the nitrogen of indole. It was found that the alkali metal silanolates, either isolated or formed in situ, offered a significant rate enhancement and broader substrate scope over the use of silanols activated by Bronsted bases such as NaOt-Bu. In addition, the optimized conditions for the cross-coupling of 2-indolylsilanolates were readily applied to the cross-coupling of 2-pyrrolyl-, 2-furyl-, and 2-thienylsilanolates.

Pd-Catalyzed reaction of 2-(tributylstannyl)-1-[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-1H-indole (5) with a variety of aryl, heteroaryl, vinyl, and allyl halides provides an efficient entry to the corresponding cross-coupled products (see Table).
